Description

(54) BEARING MEASUREMENT (71) We, GKN GROUP SERVICES LIMITED, a British Company of Group Head Office, Smethwick. Warley, West Midlands, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement: This invention relates to the manufacture of flexible bearing shells and in particular to a method of testing such shells for size whereby undersize and oversize bearing shells can be rejected in the course of manufacture.
In the complete specification of our Patent No. 1.463,092 we have described and claimed a method of testing the size of a flexible bearing shell by measuring a distance having a known relation to the parting line height of the shell, characterised in that the said measurement is effected while the shell is clamped in a support in a machine tool aranged to machine the inner cylindrical surface of the shell while clamped in said support and before said inner surface is machined.
It was considered at the time that the application for Patent No. 1,463,092 was filed that the distance related to the parting line height should be measured before the inner cylindrical surface was machined.
While this method does give satisfactory results we have found that better reproducibility of the results is obtained if the distance relating to the parting line height is measured after the inner surface has been machined.
While we now prefer to measure such distance after machining. we have also discovered that the distance can be measured during machining.
The dimensions of the shell vary due.
inter alia, to thermal effects while in the machine and we have found that by measuring the distance related to parting line height shortly after machining very good results can be obtained as far as reproducibility is concerned.
Thus one can monitor the dimensions of the shell during and after machining of the surface and one selects for the time of measurement a period when the dimension is substantially stable.
WHAT WE CLAIM IS: 1. A method of testing the size of a flexible bearing shell by measuring a distance having a known relation to the parting line height of the shell, characterised in that the said measurement is effected while the shell is clamped in a support in a machine tool arranged to machine the inner cylindrical surface of the shell while clamped in said support and during or after said inner surface is machined.
