Ball and roller bearing

Ball- and roller-bearing materials ate commonly selected to provide a minimum Rockwell hardness of 58—60 R at load-carrying contacts (37,38). Below this level, fatigue strength drops so rapidly as to seriously impair the utiUty of a material for rolling beatings which involve contact stresses in the 700—2800 MPa...

Sleeve bearings on some older, slower, larger pump shafts can withstand dirt contamination better than ball and roller bearings. This is because the tolerances are not so strict with sleeve bearings, the surface area of contact is greater, and the lubricant flushing action is better. The sleeve bearing material of construction is... 

Rolling bearings can be further classified into ball and roller bearings. The following are some of the veiy common types of rolling bearings. 

The hydraulic fluid continuously lubricates the components of a hydraulic system, which must, of course, be suitable for this purpose. Many ball and roller bearings are grease-packed for life, or need attention at lengthy...

Ball and roller bearings represent the laigest business segment with woddwide production estimated at 14 billion in 1988 (1). U.S. production, forecast for 3.6 billion in 1991, has fallen 5% annually for several years (2). This decrease is attributed largely to the slump in the automotive industry which represents 31% of the market for rolling-element bearings (3). 

Other typical applications are piston pins, crankshafts, cylinder liners, timing gears, gauges, and ball and roller bearing parts. 

Because of its very low friction coefficient, PTFE is used for bearings, ball- and roller-bearing components, and sliding bearing pads in static and dynamic load supports.11 Piston rings of filled PTFE in nonlubricated compressors permit operation at lower power consumption or at increased capacities.12... 

As an aid to experienced designers and inexperienced bearing users alike, the similarities and differences of ball and roller bearings are outlined. Table 5.10 shows the relative operating characteristics of each cataloged bearing type.

Rolling friction takes place when a spherical or cylindrical body rolls over a surface. Common examples of rolling friction are ball and roller bearings. With ball or roller friction bearings the area of contact is quite small however, the pressure loading, or pressure per square inch, is high. There is also a very small amount of sliding friction between the ball or roller and... 

The Weibull distribution is useful for studies involving brittle fracture and fatigue of metals. It is widely used in the testing and analysis of ball and roller bearings. In the application of Weibull statistics, specially... 

In machine construction, POM is used to manufacture many different parts including valves, small motor parts, chain links (for chain conveyors), ventilator rotors, guide rollers, thread guidance systems in spinning machines, ball and roller bearings, gear wheels and fastening elements. 

Uses of 1. are broad, especially if low price and moderate performance are important. The main use is in ball and roller bearings. 

Ball and roller bearings are selected on the basis of supporting loads equal to the maximum basic rating of the gear reducer and allow a minimum bearing life of 5000 h or an average life of 25,000 h. (See Table P-9.)... 

The design steps and the design guidelines are converted into expert system rules (Appendix A) for ball and roller bearing design. This expert system when run by the user will provide him with the relevant bearing parameters and their values.
