A turbocharger is provided including a turbine, a compressor and a bearing housing. A shaft is rotatably disposed within the bearing housing and extends into the turbine and the compressor. A bearing arrangement is disposed between the shaft and the bearing. The bearing arrangement includes a roller bearing formed between an outer bearing race element disposed in the bearing bore, and an inner bearing race element disposed in the outer bearing race element. A bearing retainer connected between the bearing housing and the compressor. An end portion of the bearing inner race element includes an integral oil slinger comprising a radially outward extending portion that slopes away from the shaft.

A compressor, which includes a housing and a rotor, in which the rotor includes a compressor wheel on at least one side, a compressor chamber being formed between the compressor wheel and the housing, the rotor being rotatably supported, an annular sealing channel being formed between the rotor and the housing, the sealing channel being routed from the compressor chamber to an area having a lower pressure, a connecting channel being routed from an area having a higher pressure to a first section of the sealing channel.

This fluid machine includes a motor housing, a rotating shaft which is inserted through the motor housing, an impeller which is mounted on a protruding portion of the rotating shaft, and a facing portion which faces the motor housing on a first end side in the axial direction. A first opening is provided on the first end side of the motor housing, a second opening is provided on a second end side of the motor housing, and an in-housing passage fluidly couples the first opening with the second opening. The fluid machine further includes an exhaust passage which is formed between the motor housing and the facing portion and which fluidly couples the first opening with external air, and a rotating blade which is disposed between the first opening and the exhaust passage, wherein the rotating blade is mounted on the rotating shaft and is rotatable with the rotating shaft.

An assembly is provided that includes a shaft, a bearing, a stator seal element, a rotor seal element and a shield. The shaft extends along an axis. The bearing supports the shaft and receives lubrication fluid. The stator seal element circumscribes the shaft. The rotor seal element is mounted on the shaft axially between the bearing and the stator seal element. The rotor seal element forms a seal with the stator seal element. The shield substantially prevents the lubrication fluid from traveling axially away from the bearing onto the rotor seal element.

Provided is a seal device configured to prevent leakage of a fluid on an outer circumferential surface of a rotary shaft in a direction along an axis of the rotary shaft. The seal device includes an annular main body section disposed in a circumferential direction of the rotary shaft, and a plurality of at least two kinds of holes formed in an inner circumferential surface of the main body section opening and facing to the outer circumferential surface of the rotary shaft, and having different depths.

A compressor having a housing and a rotor, the rotor having an impeller at least on one side; a compressor chamber being formed between the impeller and the housing, the rotor being rotationally mounted, an annular sealing channel being formed between the rotor and the housing, the sealing channel being routed from the compressor chamber to a zone having a lower pressure; a throttling section being provided in the sealing channel; the sealing section being configured in closer proximity to the low-pressure zone than to the compression chamber.

The centrifugal turbo-compressor (2) includes a hermetic casing; a drive shaft (6); a first and a second compression stage (12, 13) configured to compress a refrigerant and respectively including a first and a second impeller (18, 19) connected to the drive shaft (6) and being arranged in a back-to-back configuration; an interstage sealing device provided between the first and second impellers (18, 19). The hermetic casing includes a main casing portion (4) in which are arranged the first and second compression stages (12, 13) and the inter-stage sealing device. The first and second compression stage (12, 13) respectively includes a first and a second aerodynamic member (29, 31) each having an annular disc shape and respectively facing front-sides (21, 22) of the first and second impellers (18, 19).

A seal mechanism (20A) is disposed on an outer circumferential side of a rotor (2) extending along an axis (O) to perform sealing between the seal mechanism and the outer circumferential surface (2a) of the rotor (2). The seal mechanism (20A) includes a main body portion (21A) having a cylindrical shape, and into which the rotor (2) is inserted; and a plurality of hole portions (22) formed on an inner circumferential surface of the main body portion (21A) to face an outer circumferential surface of the rotor (2). The hole portions (22) are within a range in which a hole depth h is equal to or smaller than a hole diameter d.

A rotary device includes: a housing; an impeller disposed in the housing; a rotor disposed in the housing and configured to drive the impeller; and a labyrinth seal disposed between the impeller and the rotor in the housing and configured to control an amount of air injected through the impeller to cool the rotor. A flow path opening that penetrates through the rotor is formed inside the rotor along a rotational axis of the rotor and the labyrinth seal comprises a teeth portion having a predetermined number of steps provided in the labyrinth seal.

An electric motor-driven compressor includes a housing assembly comprising a motor housing and a compressor housing mounted thereto. The compressor housing contains a centrifugal compressor wheel that is mounted on a shaft of the motor rotor and also defines an air inlet that leads air into the compressor wheel, and a volute that collects the compressed air. Air bearings rotatably support the shaft. Cooling air passages are defined in the housing assembly for supplying cooling air to the air bearings. A diffuser between the exit of the compressor wheel and the volute serves to diffuse the compressed air. The compressor includes a heat shield formed separately from the compressor housing and the motor housing and disposed between them. The heat shield defines one wall of the diffuser and also cooperates with the housing assembly to define part of the cooling air passages for the cooling air supplied to the bearings.
