Chapter 5- Bearings Flashcards
Define radial loads
Load applied perpendicular to shaft
Shaft going through a hole in a roller bearing
Thrust(axial loads)
Loads applied parallel to acid of shaft
Loads applied to face of bearing
Combination loads
Both radial and axial load
Difference between a plain bearing and a rolling element beating
Plain bearing is any bearing using a sliding action
Roller element used roller friction
Specific differences between class 1 class 2 and class 3 plain bearings
Class 1-lubricated from outside source
Class 2-internal lubrication
Class 3-graphite or Teflon that require no lubrication
What type of bearing is also called an anti friction bearing
Rolling element bearing
List three basic types of rolling element bearings
1 Ball bearings
- Roller bearings
- Needle bearings
Difference between hydrostatic and hydrodynamic bearing lubrication
Hydrostatic-uses an outside pressure source to keep continuous stream
Hydrodynamic-uses coating action of rotation of shaft
What is a “sealed” bearing and why is this desirable
Sealed bearings
- keep contaminants out
- keep lubrication In
What is the advantage of a single row angular contact ball bearing
Can accommodate 300% more axial load
An ivy take axial loads in one direction
Can a single row angular contact ball bearing be installed in either direction
NO
What are the two types of thrust ball bearings and what is the difference
- Flat race type with two flat washers
2. grooved race construction . May be single or double acting . Have twice te load carrying ability then flat race
What are the two types of bearing seals and what is the difference
- contacting seals-touch the surface and usually use a softer material in shaft side
- non-contacting seals- leave a small clearance. Labyrinth seal is a type of this.
When is it acceptable to spin a bearing with compressed air to clean it
Never. But if you do…hold te bearing and don’t let it spin
What is another name for a press fit bearing mounting
Interference fit
