Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an axial loading device for life test of an angular contact ball bearing. Background Art
[0002] Angular contact ball bearings can bear radial loads and axial loads at the same time and can work at higher speeds. The larger the contact angle, the higher the axial load capacity. Angular contact ball bearings have a simple structure and low manufacturing cost. They are suitable for mass production and are widely used in various mechanical equipment, such as machine tools, automobile steering systems, wind turbines, etc. Angular contact ball bearings can be divided into single-row angular contact ball bearings and double-row angular contact ball bearings. Single-row angular contact ball bearings can only bear axial loads in one direction, while double-row angular contact ball bearings can bear combined radial and axial loads dominated by larger radial loads.
[0003] The main purpose of endurance life test of angular contact ball bearings is to improve the design, materials and manufacturing process of bearing products. Under normal circumstances, when angular contact ball bearings need to be loaded with axial loads, the load is transferred to the outer ring end face of the angular contact ball bearings through test fixtures. However, there is currently no test fixture that can directly load the inner ring end face of the angular contact ball bearings, which cannot meet the life verification of the test bearings under some working conditions.

[0015] Figure 3 for Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the enlarged structure in FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The following is a further description of the embodiment of the utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: As shown in the figure, the axial loading device for the life test of the angular contact ball bearing includes a core shaft 1, a locking screw 2 installed at one end of the core shaft 1, and an axial loading block 3. A shaft end pressure cap 4 is sandwiched between the core shaft 1 and the locking screw 2. One end of the shaft end pressure cap 4 is arranged corresponding to the inner ring of the test bearing. A loading ball 5 is tightly arranged on the locking screw 2. The loading ball 5 is sandwiched between the locking screw 2 and the axial loading block 3. The axial loading block 3 performs axial loading on the inner ring of the test bearing through the loading ball 5 and the shaft end pressure cap 4 under the axial load of the loading head of hydraulic loading or electric cylinder loading. A threaded hole is opened on the end face of the core shaft 1, and the locking screw 2 locks the shaft end pressure cap 4 and the core shaft 1 through the threaded hole. In order to reduce the contact area between the locking screw 2 and the loading ball 5 and reduce the heat generated by friction when the core shaft 1 rotates, a concave spherical surface is opened on the end face of the locking screw 2.
[0017] It also includes a left end cover 6 and a right end cover 7 installed at the two ends of the corresponding core shaft 1. The left end cover 6 is provided with a center hole for the axial loading block 3 to be installed and fixed. The axial loading block 3 is provided with a groove 8 for its installation corresponding to the loading ball 5. The left end cover 6 is provided with a plurality of first oil injection holes 9 for injecting oil toward the loading ball position. The axial loading block 3 is provided with a second oil injection hole 10, one of the first oil injection holes 9 is connected with the second oil injection hole 10, and the first oil injection hole 9 and the second oil injection hole 10 can inject oil and lubricate the two ends of the loading ball 5. The first oil injection hole 9 and the second oil injection hole 10 can prevent the loading ball 5 from being burned due to excessive temperature during the test by spraying lubricating oil on the surface of the loading ball 5. The left end cover 6 is provided with two oil injection holes for lubricating the contact surfaces at the two ends of the loading ball 5 respectively. The left end cover 6 is also provided with an oil drain hole to ensure that the lubricating oil can flow out smoothly.
[0018] The axial loading block 3 is provided with an axially outwardly facing oil storage hole 11 at the bottom of the groove 8, and the groove 8 is also provided with an oil drain hole 12, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the oil filling hole.
[0019] The axially inward end surface of the axial loading block 3 is provided with a support block 13 for convenient placement and installation of the loading ball 5, and the support block 13 is located at the lower end of the loading ball 5. The support block 13 is fixed to the axial loading block 3 by threaded connection, and plays the role of supporting the loading ball 5 to prevent the loading ball 5 from falling when the tooling as a whole is not loaded.
[0020] The axial loading block 3 is provided with a second oil filling hole, an oil storage hole 11, and an oil drain hole 12. The groove 8 for installing the loading ball 5 is a conical surface. The lubricating oil enters from the oil filling hole and flows out through the oil drain hole 12. Since the diameter of the oil drain hole 12 is smaller than the diameter of the oil filling hole, the oil storage hole 11 will always have lubricating oil, ensuring that the contact surface between the loading ball 5 and the axial loading block 3 can be fully lubricated. In order to prevent the axial loading block 3 from rotating during the test operation, causing the lubricating oil hole position to shift, a set screw is connected to the axial loading block 3.
[0021] A spacer sleeve 14 is arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the core shaft 1, and the core shaft 1 locates the installation position of the bearing to be tested through the spacer sleeve 14. A heat dissipation bushing 15 is arranged between the left end cover 6 and the right end cover 7. The heat dissipation bushing 15 is arranged concentrically with the core shaft 1, and an outer ring spacer sleeve 16 corresponding to the outer ring of the bearing to be tested is also arranged between the heat dissipation bushing 15 and the core shaft 1.
[0022] The outer peripheral wall of the outer ring spacer 16 is sleeved with a middle bushing 17 . The outer peripheral wall of the outer ring spacer 16 is provided with a plurality of annular grooves 18 . The middle bushing 17 is provided with through holes communicating with the annular grooves 18 .
[0023] Oil drain holes are provided on both sides of the heat dissipation bushing; temperature measuring holes are provided on the middle bushing and the heat dissipation bushing.
