Embodiment
Core of the present utility model provides a kind of tapered roller bearing retainer, and this tapered roller bearing retainer can improve the lubricating condition of bearing, improves the flexibility of running, reduces operating noise, prolongs the working life of bearing and retainer.Another core of the present utility model provides a kind of tapered roller bearing that comprises above-mentioned tapered roller bearing retainer.
In order to make those skilled in the art person understand the utility model scheme better, the utility model is described in further detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
Please refer to Fig. 2, Fig. 2 provides the structural representation of a kind of embodiment of tapered roller bearing retainer for the utility model.
In this embodiment, the tapered roller bearing retainer comprises fenestra beam 1, forms fenestra between the adjacent fenestra beam 1, and the some rolling element (not shown)s in the bearing are in respectively in the corresponding fenestra, guide it to roll on correct raceway; In addition, fenestra beam 1 separates some rolling elements successively, produces collision and friction each other to prevent rolling element, avoids the wearing and tearing and the fluctuation of service of bearing.
Both sides at retainer fenestra beam 1 are processed with pressure slope face 2 respectively, contact with the crest line of fenestra beam 1 to avoid rolling element.At this moment, the contact position of rolling element and retainer fenestra beam 1 bi-side is a pressure slope face 2, can improve the bulk strength of retainer, thereby improve the contact performance between fenestra beam 1 and the rolling element, and then improve the flexibility and reliability of bearing operation.
On the pressure slope face of fenestra beam 1, longitudinal groove 3 is set.Described herein vertically is along the pressure slope face 2 of fenestra beam 1 and the direction that parallels with tapered roller bearing retainer axis, the i.e. length direction of the pressure slope face 2 of fenestra beam 1; With its accordingly, hereinafter mentioned laterally and above-mentioned vertically be relative notion, i.e. axially perpendicular with bearing.Because the contact length of rolling element and longitudinal groove 3 is directly determining degree of lubrication between the two, therefore, the longitudinal length of longitudinal groove 3 preferably approaches the optimum scheme of the axial length of rolling element, that is to say, increases contact length between the two to greatest extent.Like this, rolling element is in rolling process, and rolling voxel line integral body basically all contacts with longitudinal groove 3, thus make rolling element in the axial direction can with the lubricant grease comprehensive engagement that is stored in the longitudinal groove 3, integral body is lubricated, and obtains best lubrication effect.Further, just because of evenly lubricated fully between the two, the operation of bearing is more steadily reliable.Certainly, the axial length with rolling element is unsuitable yet for the longitudinal length of longitudinal groove 3, as long as can store lubricant grease, in the scope that the utility model is asked for protection yet.In fact, for each pressure slope face 2, the longitudinal groove 3 on it also can adopt segmented design: some longitudinal grooves 3 are along the lateral alternate of pressure slope face 2; Perhaps, some longitudinal grooves 3 are separated vertically from beginning to end relatively and between the two successively.Obviously, so design can satisfied on the basis of basic greasy property, improves the overall work intensity of fenestra beam 1 greatly.
Should be appreciated that the application has application area more widely about the inventive concept of longitudinal groove 3, especially at relatively large bearing, its fenestra beam 1 size broad, and also broad of the side of matching between each fenestra beam 1 and the rolling element.Therefore, the operability that longitudinal groove 3 is set is stronger, and processing technology is also more simple; Simultaneously, less to the intensity effect of fenestra beam 1.
In the using process, longitudinal groove 3 can store the lubricant grease in the part inflow bearing, under the situation that does not have lubricant oil to enter, and maintenance rolling element that still can continue and the good lubrication environment between the fenestra beam 1, simultaneously, can also reduce area of contact between rolling element and the fenestra beam 1; Thereby on the basis of effectively improving the bearing working lubricating condition, significantly reduced the friction between rolling element and the fenestra beam 1, and then reached and reduce the bearing operation noise, improved the flexibility and reliability of running, the effect that prolongs bearing and retainer working life.
In fact, longitudinal groove 3 also can be obliquely installed, and can store lubricant grease equally, realizes the function of lubricated rolling element.
Can on the pressure slope face 2 of fenestra beam 1, some longitudinal grooves 3 be set, should be appreciated that many longitudinal grooves 3 are set can increase the capacity that rolling element contact stores lubricant grease, thus guarantee between rolling element and the corresponding fenestra beam 1 lubricate more abundant.Certainly, the concrete number of longitudinal groove 3 can be determined according to the actual size of retainer, the intensity of fenestra beam 1 and lubricated factors such as demand.In the present embodiment, the longitudinal groove on the pressure slope face 23 is two.
Some longitudinal groove 3 can also be arranged to laterally evenly distributing along pressure slope face 2, so that uniform lubricant grease between rolling element and the corresponding fenestra beam 1, the friction that rolling element is subjected to is comparatively balanced, helps the stability of rolling element running, thereby realizes the smooth operation of tapered roller bearing.
The lateral cross section of longitudinal groove 3 can be processed as rectangle, and is simple in structure, and easy processing, can effectively control cost of goods manufactured.In addition, also the lateral cross section of longitudinal groove 3 can be processed into the indent arc, as shown in Figure 3, Fig. 3 is the A-A sectional view among Fig. 2.Compare with the longitudinal groove of rectangular cross-section, the longitudinal groove 3 of arc more helps the gathering of lubricant grease, further strengthens lubrication effect.
Certainly, the lateral cross section of longitudinal groove 3 is not limited to rectangle or arc, also can be triangle, other shapes such as trapezoidal, as long as can realize storing the function of lubricant grease, all in the scope that the utility model is asked for protection.
The degree of depth of longitudinal groove 3 can determine that for large-scale tapered roller bearing, the maximum depth of longitudinal groove 3 is generally about 0.5mm according to the actual size of retainer, the requirement of strength of fenestra beam 1 and lubricated factors such as demand.
Except above-mentioned tapered roller bearing retainer, the utility model also provides a kind of tapered roller bearing that comprises above-mentioned tapered roller bearing retainer, and the structure of these other each several parts of tapered roller bearing please refer to prior art, and this paper repeats no more.
More than tapered roller bearing provided by the utility model and retainer thereof are described in detail.Used specific case herein principle of the present utility model and mode of execution are set forth, above embodiment's explanation just is used for helping to understand method of the present utility model and core concept thereof.Should be understood that; for those skilled in the art; under the prerequisite that does not break away from the utility model principle, can also carry out some improvement and modification to the utility model, these improvement and modification also fall in the protection domain of the utility model claim.
