TITLE Casing Support For Horizontal-Axis Casings Expanding In Operation, In Particular For Turbo-Machine Casings. ABSTRACT A support structure for and connected with the casing of a rotary machine operating on a horizontal axis includes a pair of vertically extending non-articulated mul- tiple bar type pendulum supports located at opposite sides of the casing, the lower ends of the pendulum supports being secured to a support base and the upper ends to the lower half of the casing which is divided horizontally along its mid- plane. Vertically extending adjustable sprung supports are al- so provided between the base and the lower half of the casing at opposite sides of` the latter for relieving the load im- posed by the machine on the pendulum supports. In order to fix the axis of the machine casing in a horizontal plane but yet permit movement in a vertical plane, a pin element projecting downwardly from the lower half of the casing in a vertical plane through the machine axis is slidably engaged within a tubular member carried by a horizontal membrane supported by the base. In order to permit torsion and/or axial expansion of the casing, a transverse metallic sheet assembly which is either slotted or provided with cut-outs extending radially of the machine axis is disposed in a radial plane of the casing beneath the latter, the upper end of this sheet assembly being secured to the lower casing half and the lower end to the base. - 1 -
