About this file

This file is a technical instruction manual and maintenance documentation for a Schottel Tunnel Thruster Model S-300-L bow thruster unit manufactured for the Military Sealift Command (MSC). The document covers tunnel thrusters with serial numbers 86.000.435 and 86.000.436, which are installed on T-AGOS 13 and T-AGOS 14 vessels under MSC Contract No. N00024-85-2046. The thruster is a right-angle reduction gearbox designed for underwater operations to provide port-starboard thrust for slow-speed maneuvering and docking applications. The unit operates using gear oil EP lubricant, weighs approximately 4,300 pounds with propeller, and has a maximum operating temperature of 185 degrees Fahrenheit. The system must remain fully submerged during operation, with air operation limited to 60 seconds or less.

The manual provides comprehensive maintenance and operational guidance, including scheduled maintenance recommendations, troubleshooting procedures, service instructions for gearbox removal and installation, drive flange seal replacement, and propeller shaft seal replacement. Operator maintenance is minimal, requiring only daily checks of the oil level in the lube oil tank. The document includes detailed parts lists with general arrangement drawings, drive flange assembly, propeller hub assembly, skeg assembly, and lower gearbox assembly illustrations. Safety procedures are emphasized throughout, covering pre-operation, during-operation, and post-operation protocols. The manual also references special tools required, such as a propeller nut wrench and propeller puller plate, and includes reference data on articulated shafts and recommended lubricants. This documentation supports the FY27 NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter Drydock reference solicitation (1305M226Q0144REF).

Check the oil level regularly during the f i r s t few hours of operation. The oil level will drop due to air trapped in the system; this makes periodic checks essential, as the addition of oil may be necessary.

OIL CHANGE

As with most machinery, the Schottel Bow Thruster unit has a breaking-in period, requiring that the oil be changed for the f i r s t time after 250 operating hours;

thereafter, the oil should be changed every 2500 hours or at least once a year.

1.1 GENERAL - '

In SCHOTTEL propulsion systems, a r t i c u l a t e d shafts are mainly used:

a) as a power transmission element between the clutch at the prime mover and the SCHOTTEL Rudder Propeller (SRP);

b) to transmit steering d i r e c t i o n between the axio-meter l i n e and the SRP steering flange;

c) for a u x i l i a r y systems (pumps, etc.) driven d i r e c t l y o f f the forward end of the prime mover. However, as t h i s application i s r e l a t i v e l y rare, i t w i l l not be covered herein.

A r t i c u l a t e d shafts are service proven and v e r s a t i l e ele ments of motive power engineering. They make i t possible to connect two shafts o f f s e t i n r e l a t i o n to each other.

Changes in length during assembly and in service (such as for the SRP v e r t i c a l adjustment) are compensated for by shaped s l i d i n g parts. The use of a r t i c u l a t e d shafts permits assembly without expensive alignment of the mach inery sets to be connected.

Art i c u l a t e d drive shafts are mechanically balanced accord ing to t h e i r max. r o t a t i o n a l speed in service. The bal ancing plates tacked to the shafts are not to be removed under any circumstances. The shafts must be rebalanced upon completion of any repair work undertaken.

1.2 THEORY OF ARTICULATED SHAFTS

Whenever a simple Cardan j o i n t or a ball-and-socket j o i n t i s evenly turned in a deflected condition, i t s out-i put end w i l l show a nonuniform motion (Fig. 1).

C-2

F i g .

Uniform input

Nonuniform output

This misalignment i s compensated for when two simple j o i n t s are connected to form an ar t i c u l a t e d shaft. Complete compensation of the ax i a l misalignment i s subject to the following conditions:

a) Same i n f l e c t i o n angles at both j o i n t s

' < 1 = 2 >•

b) The two inner j o i n t forks must be in the same plane.

c) Input and output shaft must also be in the same plane.

NOTE:

Incorrectly assembled a r t i c u l a t e d shafts increase a x i a l misalignment at the output end. This may cause damage to the bearings in the j o i n t s , shaped sections of the splined shafts, and gears arranged downstream. Accordingly, care must be taken to insure that the marking arrows on the splined shaft and splined hub are opposed to each other when assembling the a r t i c u l a t e d shafts halves. -

Do not remove balancing pieces or p la te s . An out-of-balance condition causes uneven operation which leads to premature destruc t ion of the jo in t and connecting bearings.

Avoid shocks and impacts during transportat ion and storage, as the sea l ing cap ( F i g . 6/1) could be pressed out.

F i g . I f possible, store shafts side by side with the flanges resting on a suitable wooden platform (Fig. 7)

INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Remove anticorrosive agents, dirt, grease, burrs, and paint from articulated shaft flanges and counterflanges.

Upon installation and prior to placing in service, the articulated shafts are to be lubricated in accordance with Section 3.1.

Check fork position (Fig. 8/1) while observing the marking arrows (Fig. 8/2). Remove any securing used during transportation. ;

F i g. 8

Check counterflanges for radial and axial run-out and center f i t .

Do not turn articulated shaft by means of assembling levers inserted into the joints because bearing seals might be damaged and lubricating nipples broken off.

Prior to disassembly, measures must be taken to ensure that the original positioning of the articulated shafts can be duplicated during reassembly.

When painting the shaft, care must be taken so that the shaft areas on which the seal l i p slides remain free from paint, as in

Fig. 10/X.

Attention:

When assembling a r t i c u l a t e d shafts without length or spline adjustment, one connecting part must be of movable con f i g u r a t i o n i n order that the a r t i c u l a t e d shaft can be slipped over the centering adapter.

Changes in length caused by thermal expansion must be

V .absorbed by adequate connecting bearings.

Caution:

Adequate safety measures are to be taken by the user where men and material might be endangered by r o t a t i n g a r t i c u l a t e d shafts. , V

A l l accident prevention regulations are to be complied with.

2.2 FLANGE UNIONS >

To ensure perfect operation of the a r t i c u l a t e d shafts, exact alignment of the counterflanges i s necessary.

Only b o l t s of strength class DIN 10.9 or SAE grade 8 may be used as connecting bolts for a r t i c u l a t e d shaft attach ments. For mounting purposes, the bolts are to be o i l e d s l i g h t l y ; lubricants containing MoSg additives (such as

Molykote) are to be avoided.

Tighten bolts with torque wrench uniformly using cross pattern; see chart on page 10 for torque values.

3. MAINTENANCE '

The a r t i c u l a t e d shafts used in SCHOTTEL propulsion systems are normally f i t t e d with three DIN 71412 grease nipples, one of which i s located at either universal j o i n t while the

; t h i r d serves fo r r e l u b r i c a t i n g the splined section.

Only class 2 l i t h i u m base greases, having a penetration number of 265/295 and a drop point of approx. 453 K (180°C), or the greases indicated in the

6-7

Chart of Recommended Lubricants on Page 11 are to be used for r e l u b r i c a t i o n .

We recommend to relubricate the a r t i c u l a t e d shafts a f t e r every

250 OPERATING HOURS, BUT AT LEAST EVERY THREE ' •

MONTHS,

and to carry out the checks as to Section 3.2.

3.1 LUBRICATING THE ARTICULATED SHAFTS

Prior to r e l u b r i c a t i o n , the nipples must be cleaned. We recommend l u b r i c a t i n g the articulaed shafts at service temperature in order to keep the resistance of the old grease in the a r t i c u l a t e d shaft as low as possible.

Attention:

THE LUBRICATING PRESSURE IS TO BE LIMITED TO MAX. 15 bars

(15 • 10^ Pa)(220 lbs. i n ̂ ) .

Grease universal j o i n t s u n t i l the used grease comes out at the seals.

When r e l u b r i c a t i n g the splined sections of the s l i d i n g parts, take p a r t i c u l a r care to position a v e r t i c a l l y ad justable SRP beforehand in such a way that the a r t i c u l a t e d shaft to be greased i s i n a horizontal position and/or i s at i t s shortest length.

I f no grease emerges when r e l u b r i c a t i n g the splined sec t i o n , the cap must be removed and the f e l t gasket either cleaned or replaced.

CHECKS

3.2 The following checks should be carried out p r i o r to re l u b r i c a t i n g the a r t i c u l a t e d shafts:

- Check universal j o i n t s for wear (checking the play).

- Check splined section for wear (visual check and check '* 4 1 . " ' T \

^ ^ . ' of p l a y ) .

6-8

- Check connecting bolts (flange unions) for tightness; % retighten them i f necessary.

For tightening torques see page 10. '

In operation, a r t i c u l a t e d shafts should be constantly checked for anomalous noise; whenever there are deviations from the normal running noise, the cause must be ascer tained and eliminated immediately.
