Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of component detection, in particular to a bearing axial clearance measuring device and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The main bearing of a heading machine is a core component of the heading machine under the harsh working condition of breaking rock, and has high bearing capacity requirements. The currently developed main bearing of the heading machine has a maximum outer diameter of Φ10m, and has the characteristics of large diameter, heavy weight, and high precision requirements. Before the main bearing is assembled to the heading machine, a large number of use characteristic tests need to be carried out to ensure the reliability and stability of the working.

[0003] The internal clearance of a rolling bearing is an important use characteristic, and has a great influence on the fatigue life, rigidity, vibration, noise, temperature rise and mechanical normal running accuracy of the bearing.

[0004] For commonly used small size bearings, mature measuring devices have been formed in the prior art, but for the clearance measurement of the main bearing of the heading machine, due to the large size and heavy weight of the bearing itself, and the very small axial clearance of the bearing (usually 1mm-2mm), convenient and effective measurement cannot be achieved. Moreover, different types of heading machines have different specifications of main bearings, and each specification of main bearing needs to produce corresponding clearance measuring devices, which has a very high manufacturing cost.

[0005] In view of the above, there is an urgent need for a bearing axial clearance measuring device and method to solve the problems existing in the prior art. SUMMARY

[0016] The application further provides a bearing axial clearance measuring method, which adopts the bearing axial clearance measuring device.

[0017] Step A: adjusting the positions of the outer ring support table and the inner ring support table on the sliding mechanism, so that the outer ring support table and the inner ring support table are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the bearing; placing the outer ring of the bearing to be measured on the outer ring support table of the outer ring support unit, so that the inner ring of the bearing is suspended downward;

[0018] Step B: adjusting the initial position of the lifting mechanism in the synchronous lifting unit, so that the top of the lifting mechanism is in contact with the lower surface of the inner ring of the bearing; when it is detected that the value of the pressure sensor at the top of the lifting mechanism changes from zero, stopping the action of the lifting mechanism;

[0019] Step C: zeroing the pressure sensor and the displacement sensor; starting the synchronous lifting unit, and the lifting mechanism lifts the inner ring of the bearing; when the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor is above the set threshold, the lifting mechanism stops lifting, and the bearing axial clearance measured by the displacement sensor is obtained.

[0020] Preferably, the step A further comprises: before placing the bearing, detecting whether the top surfaces of all the outer ring support tables are on the same horizontal plane by using the level; and detecting whether the top surfaces of the lifting mechanisms on all the inner ring support tables are on the same horizontal plane by using the level.

[0025] The technical scheme of the application has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] (1) In the present application, by setting the outer ring support unit and the inner ring support unit, uniform support of large-size and heavy bearings can be achieved during bearing axial clearance measurement. The lifting of the inner ring is realized by the synchronous lifting unit, which can conveniently push the inner ring of the bearing from one limit position to another limit position, and the measurement of the bearing axial clearance can be conveniently realized. By connecting the inner ring support table, the outer ring support table and the sliding mechanism, the outer ring support table and the inner ring support table can slide along the radial direction of the bearing, the distance between the outer ring support table and the inner ring support table can be adjusted, so that the clearance measurement of the main bearing of different diameter specifications can be realized, and the universality of the bearing axial clearance measurement equipment is improved.

The pressure sensor and the driving motor are connected with the control module. When the inner ring is lifted to the limit position upward, the inner ring will be subjected to the force of other parts due to the connection between the inner ring and other parts, thereby exerting greater pressure on the lifting mechanism. At this time, the pressure value collected by the pressure sensor will change suddenly, and the control module will control the driving motor to stop the lifting mechanism from continuing to lift and realize self-locking, so that intelligent measurement can be realized, errors caused by observing whether the inner ring has been lifted to the limit position by the human eye can be avoided, and automatic, convenient and accurate measurement of the axial clearance can be realized.

[0031] (6) In the application, the displacement sensor can be arranged on the outer ring, the inner ring or the lifting mechanism, and is used for detecting the bearing axial clearance, so that high-precision measurement of the bearing axial clearance can be realized.

[0032] (7) In the application, the level meter can be used for measuring the straightness and flatness of the outer ring support table, the inner ring support table and the inner surface of the bearing, and can be used for measuring the correctness of the installation position of the equipment and a small inclination angle, so that the horizontal position adjustment of the measuring equipment before measurement and the horizontal state display during measurement can be ensured.

[0033] (8) In the application, the control module is internally provided with a PLC or MCU, which can be used for collecting information of the synchronous lifting unit, the pressure sensor and the displacement sensor and the like, and sending corresponding control signals, so that closed-loop control of the measurement system can be realized. The control module displays the driving motor action information, the pressure information and the displacement information on the display module, and the tester can directly obtain the current measurement state and the final bearing axial clearance value through the display module.
