A Measuring Mechanism for Bearing Friction Torque in Vacuum Environment

Abstract

The invention discloses a bearing friction moment testing mechanism in a vacuum environment, which comprises a rotating shaft system, a friction testing mechanism, a friction arm measuring mechanism and a lever mechanism. The lever mechanism, the rotating shaft system, the friction testing mechanism and the friction arm measuring mechanism are installed side by side, the rotating shaft system is in the center, the lever mechanism and the friction testing mechanism are arranged on both sides, and then between the lever mechanism and the friction testing mechanism The friction arm measurement mechanism is arranged symmetrically on the outside; in the traditional bearing friction torque test, basically the radius of the bearing sleeve on the bearing to be tested is directly used as the friction arm of the bearing to be tested, without considering the processing of the bearing sleeve In order to avoid errors caused by installation, the present invention accurately measures the friction arm of the bearing by designing a set of bearing friction arm measuring mechanism, reduces the error of test results, and satisfies higher-precision bearing friction torque test tests.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the measurement field of bearing friction force and friction force arm in a vacuum environment, and more specifically, relates to a bearing friction torque testing mechanism in a vacuum environment. Background technique [0002] In the life test of aerospace bearings, friction torque is an important test parameter, and the impact of bearing lubrication performance degradation can be most directly reflected in friction torque. The frictional torque of the test bearing is load dependent. In the case of constant load, the friction torque of the bearing before running-in is relatively large. During the running-in process, the friction torque of the bearing gradually decreases, and finally tends to be stable. The bearing is in a working state and the lubrication state is stable. When the bearing is damaged or the lubrication fails, the friction torque of the bearing will increase greatly. It is an effective method to judge whether...

Problems solved by technology

Using the sensor to measure the bearing friction force, and then calculating the bearing friction torque through the product of the bearing friction force and the bearing friction force arm is the main development trend of the bearing life test nowadays, but the existing bearing friction torque testing mechanism still has deficiencies First of all, due to the existence of machining errors and installation errors, there is no effective way to accurately measure the friction arm of the bearing in the high-precision test.

Secondly, because the friction force of the bearing is too small, in the dynamic balance system, the force measuring point will be separated from the force sensor, so that the data of the bearing friction force cannot be obtained
