- an appropriate lubricant is a lubricant composition including (by volume) 62% Mobil 1 ® 0W-40 motor oil, 19% Bakoda ® ski wax and 19% Lucas ® Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer. Examples of additional lubricants are described in the patent application titled BEARING GREASE COMPOSITION, Attorney Docket No. O- 5056, filed on even date herewith and which is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
- bearing 28'" does not include the lubricant and/or cavity 62.
- Other embodiments may include four or more components.
- An exemplary bearing having more than three components can include a first member (e.g., cylinder 30), a second member (e.g., first flanged cylinder 32) surrounding the first member, a third member (e.g., second flanged cylinder 34) surrounding the second member, and 5 additional members (e.g., one, two, three or more) surrounding the third member.
- the additional members can surround the more radially inward members similarly to how the second member or the third member surrounds more radially inward member(s).
- FIGS. 9-11 show an assembled bearing 88 in an isometric view (FIG. 9), in cutaway exploded view (FIG. 10) and in cross-sectional o view (FIG. 11).
- the cylindrical members may be in the form of V- shaped (cross-sectional profile) rings.
- This embodiment includes inner V-shaped ring 36 which can slidably rotate with respect to outer V-shaped ring 38.
- Outer V-shaped ring 38 may be permanently fixed to hollow cylindrical ring 80.
- the inner and outer rings may include different profiles that are not specifically V-shaped. 5
- the cross-sectional profile of the inner ring may be U-shaped.
- This profile can allow for a concave outer surface (of the inner ring) structure that results in one or more substantial bearing surfaces that are not parallel to the radial axis of the bearing. This is in contrast, for example, to the bearing shown in FIG. 7 in which the majority of the bearing surface is parallel to the radial axis of the bearing.
- the radius of the inner0 ring and/or outer ring may be greater toward the center (midline) of the bearing than it is at the lateral edges of the bearing. Moving from the outer edge to the center of the bearing, the radius may increase linearly, as in the case of a V-shaped inner ring or according to the equation of a curve in the case of a U-shaped ring.
- inner ring 36 may be formed so that it fills space 89 while maintaining a V-shaped profile on the outer surface.
- the inner surface of the inner ring may be parallel to the radial axis of the bearing while the outer surface is not parallel to the radial axis of the bearing.
- Inner V-shaped ring 36 may be formed from a single piece or from multiple0 components as shown in FIG. 10. If a multi-component inner V-shaped ring is chosen, the components may remain separate or may be permanently attached together. For example, complementary halves may be joined together at central line 96 to form a unitary inner V-shaped ring.
- the inner V-shaped ring may be, for example, metallic or a metallic alloy and may include, for instance, steel or bronze.
- inner V-shaped ring 36 may include two substantially straight inner surfaces (in cross section) 36a and 36b that form a "V" by sloping outwardly as they meet centrally in the bearing.
- Inner V-shaped ring 36 may include a flattened portion 36d at one or both of the outer edges of the ring.
- flattened portion 36d may be the only portion of inner V-shaped ring 36 that is in contact with the shaft.
- shaft 90 when shaft 90 is installed it may be supported by flattened portion 36d and may form a space 89 between the surface of the shaft and the V portion of the inner surface 36a and 36b of the inner V-shaped ring. Space 89 can reduce heat transfer between the bearing and the shaft which can, for example, result in a cooler operating motor.
- Inner surface 38 A of outer V-shaped ring 38 may be complementary to outer surface 36c of inner V-shaped ring 36.
- Outer V-shaped ring 38 may include outer flattened portions that correspond to flattened portions 36d of inner V-shaped ring 36.
- Outer V-shaped ring 38 can be a composite and may include a fluoropolymer or other self-lubricating material on inner surface 38a that is laminated to a metallic substrate to form the composite ring.
- outer V-shaped ring 38 may be formed from NORGLIDE® M, SM, T, or Pro® as described above.
- Outer V-shaped ring 38 may be a single piece or may include two or more pieces joined together. In one embodiment, as shown, two symmetrical halves can be spot welded together. By spot welding, the joint between the two halves may form intermittent passages that allow lubricant to pass from cavity 87 to the bearing surfaces between the inner and outer V-shaped rings. In other cases the seam between the two halves may be completely sealed.
- Hollow cylindrical ring 80 may form a housing for bearing 88.
- Hollow cylindrical ring 80 may be formed from a metallic material such as steel.
- Hollow cylindrical ring 80 can include two L-shaped (in cross-section) cylindrical rings that may be joined together by, for example, welding, press fitting or overmolding with a polymer.
- laser spot weld 84 can be seen in FIG. 9.
- Outer V-shaped ring 38 can be fixed to hollow cylindrical ring 80 by spot welding or other techniques. Spot welds 86a, 86b and 86c are evident in FIG. 9 and serve to affix hollow cylindrical ring 80 to outer V-shaped ring 38, thus immobilizing hollow cylindrical ring 80 with respect to outer V-shaped ring 38.
- inner V-shaped ring 36 is slidably rotatable in relation to both outer V-shaped ring 38 and hollow cylindrical ring 80.
- Hollow cylindrical ring 80 can be dimensioned to form cavity 87 that is a substantially toroidal shape and that extends around the outer surface 38b of outer V-shaped ring 38. "Substantially toroidal" means that the cavity extends 360 degrees around the bearing but (as shown) it need not have a circular or even a rounded cross-section. Inclusion of this cavity has been found to reduce vibration and provide quieter operation as well as provide greater tolerance regarding the angle of the shaft that is supported by bearing 88.
- cavity 87 may be extended by enlarging the axial walls 92 of hollow cylindrical ring 80.
- Cavity 87 may be empty or may contain an additional component such as a lubricant or damping material.
- cavity 87 may be filled, at least partially, with one of the greases or other lubricants described or referred to herein.
- the lubricant can be passively supplied to the bearing surfaces through passages formed in outer V-shaped bearing 38.
- Hollow cylindrical ring 80 may be coated partially or totally with an elastomer to produce an elastomer coated metal.
- an elastomeric coating may be applied to axial surface 92 or to cylindrical surface 94, or to both.
- the elastomeric coating can help to provide additional vibration and noise reduction as well as provide for easier and more secure fitting of the bearing in a device.
- Appropriate coatings may include, for example, natural and synthetic elastomers such as PVC, PVB and NBR (nitrile rubber).
- bearing 88 When used to rotatably support a shaft, such as a shaft of a motor or a steering mechanism, bearing 88 may be particularly tolerant of thrust loading that may cause extensive wear in alternative bearings. If an axial force is applied to the bearing through the shaft, this axial force is spread across substantially one half (the outer half) of the total contacting surfaces of the V-shaped bearing. In flanged bearings that include a substantially flat portion (in cross-section) from flange to flange, the force from the thrust loading may be applied almost entirely to the flange, resulting in excessive friction and wear at the flange location. It has been found that by spreading this force across the outer half of the V-shaped surface, rather than entirely to the flange, the frictional wear can be significantly reduced.
