  • Patent number: 11131325
    Abstract: Provided is a vibration suppressing method for a supercharger, the supercharger including a shaft, a wheel arranged at one end or the other end of the shaft, and a housing including a wheel cover accommodating the wheel; the method including a determining step of determining a suppression target oscillation frequency to be a suppression target from among oscillation frequencies of the housing vibrating with shaft vibration of the shaft transmitted thereto, a preparing step of preparing a vibration suppressing unit having a natural frequency to be tuned in to the suppression target oscillation frequency, and an attaching step of attaching the vibration suppressing unit prepared in the preparing step onto an outer face of the housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10934887
    Abstract: A rotary machine include: a rotational shaft; an impeller mounted to the rotational shaft; an impeller housing accommodating the impeller; a bearing housing accommodating a bearing which supports the rotational shaft rotatably, the bearing housing being fastened to the impeller housing; and a fastening member fastening the impeller housing and the bearing housing in an axial direction of the rotational shaft. The impeller housing, the bearing housing, and the fastening member each includes a contact surface in a direction intersection with an axial direction of the rotational shaft. A thin-plate member formed separately from the impeller housing, the bearing housing, and the fastening member is interposed between at least two of the contact surfaces.
