Abstract

Tapered roller bearings have in many design forms an inner ring, an outer ring and a plurality of tapered rollers which are arranged to roll between the inner ring and outer ring. It is the object ofthe present invention to propose a method for producing a tapered roller assembly which can be mounted in a particularly simple manner. For this purpose, a method for producing a tapered roller assembly (1) having an inner ring (3) and a roller ring (12) is proposed, wherein the method comprises the following steps: a) providing the inner ring (3), wherein the inner ring (3) has a flanged mountingrim (10) which is produced within a preliminary flanging stage by flanging over an edge region (6) of the inner ring (3); b) mounting the roller ring (12) on the inner ring (3), wherein the roller ring (12) is pushed over the flanged mounting rim (10) onto the inner ring (3); c) flanging over the flanged mounting rim (10) into a flanged rim (15), wherein the flanged rim (15), as a retaining rim,captively retains the roller ring (12); and d) heat-treating the flanged mounting rim (10) before step b) or step c), wherein a hardness of the flanged mounting rim (10) is reduced by comparison witha hardness of a raceway (5) of the inner ring (3). Also proposed is a tapered roller bearing (20) formed with such a tapered roller assembly (1).

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a tapered roller assembly, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing an inner ring, wherein the inner ring has a beaded fit edge; fitting a roller and cage assembly to the inner ring , wherein the roller and cage assembly is fitted onto the inner ring through the hemming assembly edge; and the hemming assembly edge is turned into a hemming edge, wherein the hemming edge is used as a retaining edge to hold the roller and retain shelf components. In addition, the present invention also relates to a tapered roller assembly manufactured by the method, and to a tapered roller bearing formed using the tapered roller assembly. Background technique

[0002] Tapered roller bearings in many configurations have an inner ring, an outer ring and a plurality of tapered rollers arranged rolling between the inner ring and the outer ring. These tapered rollers are often guided in cages. The production of...

Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 On the right is shown a flow chart with a number of steps for producing the tapered roller component set 1 . On the left, a half-sectional view of an initial or intermediate product for producing the tapered roller component assembly 1 is schematically shown.

[0040] By way of example, the method can start from a ring disk 2 produced from a preferably hardenable steel. The annular disk 2 is designed as a flat disk body and can be separated, for example, from a disk blank. In step 100, which is designed as a reforming phase, the annular disc 2 is reformed by cold extrusion into an inner ring 3, wherein the inner ring 3 has a fixed edge 4, a conically extending raceway 5 and an axially extending Border area 6. The edge region 6 is formed as a hollow cylindrical end section of the inner ring 3 .

[0041] For example, the inner ring 3 can be produced in the reforming device 7 in the state after step 100, as it was in figure 2 shown schematically in half-sect...
