Abstract

The balancing system includes two balancing rings which can be rotated, and secured in desired angular positions, in relation to one another and are provided with an unbalance. Annular grooves in the inner surface of the balancing rings and annular grooves which are situated opposite the aforementioned annular grooves and are located in a cylindrical outer surface of the rotating machine part accommodate an elastic ring which secures the balancing rings in the axial direction. A radial threaded bore which is not continuous in the outward direction and is located in the balancing rings accommodates a locking screw for securing the balancing rings.
