ABSTRACT:
A lubricant pump (24) for supplying pressurized lubricant to the main bearings (14) of a drive shaft (12) for a steam turbine (10) as shown in FIG. 1. A lubricant pump (24) is positioned between a governor (18) and an adjacent bearing (14) with the governor (18) and lubricant pump (24) being driven from the turbine shaft (12). The lubricant pump (24) has an outer housing (56) with a pair of opposed parallel mounting faces (58, 60) for mounting against a planar end face (48) of a bearing housing (44) on one side of lubricant pump (24) and an opposed planar face (38) of governor (18) on the other side of lubricant pump (24). Lubricant pump (24) comprises a rotary gear pump and may be easily installed on an existing turbine (10) having a governor (18) mounted on a bearing housing (44). Lubricant pump (24) includes gears ( 90, 92) to supply pressurized fluid through lubricant lines (30, 32) to bearings (14).
