Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cages, in particular to an oil-filling cage for a large tapered roller bearing. Background Art

[0002] The welded cage of large tapered roller bearings with traditional structure must be subjected to medium frequency quenching or carburizing heat treatment on the cage surface, which greatly increases the difficulty of cage processing and installation. In addition, the cages used for large bearings are large in size, so grease loss will increase when the bearings run at high speeds. When the bearings are running, the grease is consumed too quickly, which can easily lead to uneven distribution of grease in the pockets, causing dry running of the rolling elements. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a large tapered roller bearing oil-replenishing cage to solve the problem in the prior art of lacking a cage that is easy to install and convenient for replenishing oil to the rolling elements in the pockets.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides an oil-replenishing retainer for a large tapered roller bearing, comprising a left ring and a right ring, wherein a plurality of beam bodies are arranged circumferentially on the side wall of the left ring, pockets for accommodating external rolling bodies are formed between adjacent beam bodies, a fixing hole is provided on the side wall of the right ring corresponding to each beam body position, a fixing rod is passed through each fixing hole, each of the beam bodies is provided with a fixing groove along its length direction for adjacent fixing rods to pass through and threadedly engage, and each fixing rod is provided with an oil-replenishing member for replenishing grease into its adjacent pockets.

[0005] The benefits of adopting the above technical solution are: when it is necessary to assemble the retaining frame, the operator aligns the left ring and the right ring coaxially, and then inserts each fixing rod and connects it with the corresponding fixing hole thread, and then continues to screw in the fixing rod, so that each fixing rod can be inserted into the adjacent fixing groove and cooperate with the corresponding fixing groove thread, so that the left ring and the right ring are fixedly connected; the setting of the above technology is convenient for the operator to process it separately, and it is also convenient to assemble it, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling and splicing the retaining frame. At the same time, the setting of the oil replenishing part in the above technology can also replenish grease to adjacent pockets, and when the grease inside the bearing dries up, the operator can unscrew the fixing rod out of the retaining frame and replace it with a new fixing rod, so that the oil replenishing part on the new fixing rod can continue to replenish grease inside the bearing, thereby ensuring that the rolling elements inside the bearing will not dry out due to grease exhaustion.

[0006] The present invention is further provided with: a slot connected to the pocket hole is formed on each side wall of the beam body, each of the slots is connected to the respective adjacent fixing slots, each of the fixing rods is provided with an oil storage cavity along its length direction, the oil storage cavity is filled with solid grease, a through slot connected to the oil storage cavity is formed on the fixing rod, each through slot opening is aligned with and connected to the respective adjacent slot openings, and the solid grease is the oil filling part.

[0007] The benefits of adopting the above technical solution are: when the fixing rod is inserted into the fixing groove, the through groove on the fixing rod is connected to the slot, and when the bearing runs at high speed, its internal temperature will gradually rise, so that the solid grease in the oil storage chamber will gradually turn into liquid grease, and flow out through the through groove into the slot, and then flow into the pocket hole through the slot, thereby replenishing the grease of the external rolling body in the pocket hole, and the slot is arranged on the inner wall of the pocket hole, so that the grease can be evenly coated on the surface of the rolling body through the inner wall of the pocket hole, thereby ensuring that the surface of the external rolling body will not be thrown or leaked due to excessive grease, and at the same time, the rolling body will not have an increase in friction torque due to uneven local grease distribution when running at high speed, thereby avoiding affecting the rotation speed of the rolling body.

[0008] The present invention is further provided that: a film for closing the through slot is provided in each of the through slots, a penetration plate is provided in each of the slots, the penetration plate is made of a shape memory alloy, the penetration plate has a first form in a first temperature range, and the penetration plate has a second form in a second temperature range, the penetration plate is vertical in the first form and closes the slot, and the penetration plate is bent in the second form to penetrate into the through slot and pierce the film.

[0009] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the penetration plate is made of shape memory alloy material, and when the bearing is running at high speed, its internal temperature will gradually rise and reach above 40 degrees. The internal temperature of the bearing reaches above 40 degrees, which is the second temperature range, and the internal temperature of the bearing is below 40 degrees, which is the first temperature range. The penetration plate is made of shape memory alloy material, so that it bends and penetrates into the through groove after the bearing runs at high speed for a period of time. At this time, the bending of the penetration plate will puncture the film, so that the lubricating grease that has been converted from solid grease to liquid grease flows out through the through groove to the adjacent pocket hole, thereby realizing lubrication of the inside of the bearing. The setting of the above technology ensures that the grease in the oil storage chamber will not leak when the bearing is not running, and at the same time ensures that the lubricating grease can lubricate the inside of the bearing in time when the bearing is running at high speed.

[0010] The present invention further provides that: a stopper is provided on the side wall of the beam body, the radial cross section of the connection between the stopper and the beam body is arranged in a step-like shape, and each of the stoppers is arranged to partially abut against the outer peripheral wall of the right ring.

[0011] The benefit of adopting the above technical solution is that the setting of the stop opening in the above technology can effectively limit the radial deviation or shaking of the right ring, ensuring that the left ring and the right ring will not separate radially.

[0012] The present invention further provides that: the outer peripheral wall of the fixing rod is coated with metal glue.

[0013] The benefit of adopting the above technical solution is that the metal glue coated on the outer peripheral wall of the fixing rod can increase the friction torque between the fixing rod and the fixing groove, thereby preventing the fixing rod from axially separating from the fixing groove.
