Bearings Flashcards
Plain bearing
Designed for light loads and continuous motion
Frequent maintenance
What do bearing do
Stop contamination
What are support journals of shelf and axis
Journal bearings
Roller bearings
Pivot journeys
Pivot bearing
Axial bearing
What are pivot journals
Accept force in a longitudinal direction
What are supporting journal
Accept forces at right angles to the drilling axis
Sliding bearing
operates in a bearing box, a bearing bushing
or directly in the bearing body.
Bearings for large journal diameters and bearings that cannot be pushed over the shafts during assembly (e.g. crankshafts) must be two-part bearings
What is bearing play
Dependent on the lube and demands of the bearing
What are slowing bearing resistant to
Push forces , operate with little force
What are disvantsge of sliding bearings
High starting resistance
Continues maintenance
What are sliding bearing suitable for
Fast and slow rotational speed
What are the bearing loads
Radial and thrust
What are the 5 types of anti friction bearings
- Tapered
- Needle
- Ball
- Spherical
- Cylindrical
What does an anti friction bearing consist of
the outer and inner raceway, the rolling element and usually a rolling element cage.
Ball bearings
Only take light radial loads Popular Fail under thrust load Very slow starting resistance due to all point contact Has a deep grove
