Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bearing technology, and more particularly to bearing testing machines. Background Technology
[0002] The entire bearing development process includes iterative steps such as structural design, parameter calculation and selection, numerical simulation, sample fabrication, bench testing, and installation testing. During the bench testing phase, the testing machine applies corresponding radial forces, axial forces, and overturning moments to the bearing at specified speeds and temperatures according to the designed test procedures, conducting various performance and life tests. After the tests, the bearing undergoes physical and chemical inspection and evaluation. Typically, applying a larger load to the bearing during bench testing can shorten the test time and the bearing development cycle. However, due to the large load applied during bearing reinforcement testing (P / C > 0.3), the design dimensions of the testing machine's support spindle and bearings are large, resulting in a short spindle bearing service life and frequent bearing disassembly and replacement. The high torque and power of the spindle drive device also contribute to the large size and high cost of the testing machine, leading to high testing and operating expenses. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the bearing testing machine includes: a base 1, a main shaft 2, and a bearing loading seat 9. The base 1 is fixedly set on the ground, and the main shaft 2 is rotatably set on the base 1 via a bearing assembly 3. Specifically, the bearing assembly 3 includes a bearing seat 31 set on the base 1 and two pairs of cylindrical roller bearings 32 set between the main shaft 2 and the bearing seat 31.
[0028] In this embodiment, the left end of the spindle 2 extends out of the base 1 and is fitted with two bearings to be tested. These bearings include a left bearing 4 and a right bearing 5, arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside. The right end of the spindle 2 extends out of the base 1 and is connected to the drive device. In this embodiment, the drive device is a drive motor 6. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 is connected to the spindle 2 via a reducer, driving the spindle 2 to rotate. Preferably, the drive motor 6 can be a stepper motor, which allows for speed control, adjustable speed during rotation, and online adjustment.
[0029] In this embodiment, the left bearing to be tested 4 and the right bearing to be tested 5 are both fixedly mounted on the main shaft 2 by the mounting sleeve 7. The mounting sleeve 7 is fixed to the shoulder of the main shaft 2 by the locking nut 8. The outer peripheral surface of the left end of the main shaft 2 is provided with an external thread that matches the locking nut 8. The outer peripheral surface of the middle part of the mounting sleeve 7 is provided with a limiting shoulder. The two bearings to be tested (the left bearing to be tested and the right bearing to be tested) are mounted back to back on both sides of the limiting shoulder on the mounting sleeve 7.
[0030] The bearing loading seat 9 is mounted on two bearings to be tested and is used to apply axial and radial loads to the two bearings to be tested. It includes a left bearing seat 91 sleeved on the outer ring of the left bearing 4 to be tested, a right bearing seat 92 sleeved on the outer ring of the right bearing 5 to be tested, a left loading seat 93 sleeved on the left bearing seat 91, a right loading seat 94 sleeved on the right bearing seat 92, a left end cover 95 located at the end of the left loading seat 93 away from the right loading seat 94, and a right end cover 96 located at the end of the right loading seat 94 away from the left loading seat 93. The left end cover 95, the left loading seat 93, the right loading seat 94, and the right end cover 96 are connected by a plurality of hinges 97 arranged along the axial direction.
[0031] In this embodiment, the left end cover 95 is located on the outer left side of the main shaft 2, and the right end cover 96 is fitted onto the main shaft 2 with a clearance. A sealing ring is provided between the right end cover 96 and the main shaft 2 to improve the sealing performance of the testing machine and facilitate the testing of the bearing under test.
[0032] In this embodiment, a first gap 11 is provided between the left bearing seat 91 and the right bearing seat 92, and a second gap 12 is provided between the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94. To increase sealing performance, an axial elastic sealing assembly is provided between the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94. The bearing elastic sealing assembly includes a sealing ring 13 and a spring 14, with the sealing ring 13 disposed within the second gap 12. Specifically, a spring 14 mounting hole is provided on the end face of the right loading seat 94 near the left loading seat 93, corresponding to the sealing ring 13. The spring 14 is installed in the spring 14 mounting hole 1 and abuts against the sealing ring 13.
[0033] It should be noted that, considering the test condition where the bearing under test is oil-lubricated, the bearing elastic sealing assembly in this embodiment features an axial elastic sealing device designed between the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94 to ensure no lubricating oil leakage from the loading mechanism when the bearing under test is oil-lubricated. Its structure is simple, its sealing performance is good, and it is beneficial for the testing of the bearing under test.
[0034] In this embodiment, four hinge components 97 are evenly distributed around the circumference. Each hinge component 97 includes a loading seat connecting rod 97a and ball joint structures at both ends of the loading seat connecting rod 97a. The loading seat connecting rod 97a passes through the left end cover 95, the left loading seat 93, the right loading seat 94, and the right end cover 96 in sequence with clearance and is then fastened by a fastening nut 97d. Both ends of the loading seat connecting rod 97a are provided with external threads that are compatible with the fastening nut 97d. The left end cover 95, the left loading seat 93, the right loading seat 94, and the right end cover 96 are coaxially provided with through holes that are compatible with the loading seat connecting rod 97a. The inner diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the loading seat connecting rod 97a, thereby forming a clearance fit between the loading seat connecting rod 97a and the through hole.
[0035] In this embodiment, each ball joint structure is fastened to the through holes of the left end cap 95 and the right end cap 96 respectively by a fastening nut 97d. Specifically, the ball joint structure includes a ball joint sleeve 97b and a ball joint washer 97c. The inner wall of the ball joint sleeve 97b is provided with a concave spherical surface, and the outer wall of the ball joint washer 97c is provided with a spherical surface that matches the concave spherical surface of the ball joint sleeve 97b. The outer side of the through holes of the left end cap 95 and the right end cap 96 are provided with mounting holes that match the ball joint sleeve 97b. The inner diameter of the ball joint washer 97c matches the diameter of the loading seat connecting rod 97a. During installation, the loading seat connecting rod 97a passes through the ball joint sleeve 97b and the ball joint washer 97c and is then screwed and fixed with the fastening nut 97d.
[0036] The bearing loading seat 9 in this embodiment also includes an axial loading mechanism 98 disposed on the left end cover 95, which is used to axially load the bearing to be tested. The axial loading mechanism 98 includes a plurality of axial loading cylinders 98a. One end of each axial loading cylinder 98a is fixed on the left end cover 95, and the other end extends into the inner cavity of the left loading seat 93 and abuts against the outer ring end face of the left bearing to be tested 4 through the loading plate 98b.
[0037] To facilitate axial loading of the bearing under test and achieve closed internal force balance, the axial loading mechanism 98 also includes a left bearing spacer 98c located between the loading disk 98b and the outer ring of the left bearing under test 4, and a right bearing spacer 98d located between the right end cover 96 and the outer ring of the right bearing under test 5.
[0038] In this embodiment, multiple axial loading cylinders 98a are evenly distributed along the axial direction on the left end cover 95; the loading disk 98b is slidably sleeved in the left loading seat 93, the left bearing spacer 98c is slidably sleeved in the left bearing seat 91, and the right bearing spacer 98d is slidably sleeved in the right bearing seat 92; the piston rod of the axial loading cylinder 98a is drivenly connected to the loading disk 98b. When axially loading occurs, the piston rod extends to drive the loading disk 98b to push the left bearing spacer 98c against the outer ring end face of the left bearing to be tested 4.
[0039] It should be noted that the specifications and number of axial cylinders are designed and selected according to the magnitude and requirements of the axial load. In use, the axial loading cylinder 98a applies an axial load to the left bearing under test 4 through the floating loading plate 98b and the left bearing spacer 98c; the left end cover 95 and the left loading seat 93 are connected to the right end cover 96 and the right loading seat 94 through the loading seat connecting rod 97a. The loading seat connecting rod 97a adopts a ball joint structure and is hinged to the left end cover 95 and the right end cover 96. The axial reaction force applies an equal and opposite axial load to the right bearing under test 5 through the loading seat connecting rod 97a, the right end cover 96 and the right bearing spacer 98d. The two equal and opposite axial forces acting between the left end cover 95 and the right end cover 96 are internal forces and are balanced with each other. The axial resultant force on the main shaft 2 of the testing machine is zero. At this time, the loading seat connecting rod 97a is in a tensioned state. Therefore, the spindle 2 and the bearing assembly 3 on the spindle 2 do not bear the axial force applied to the bearing under test, thereby improving the service life of the working bearing of the spindle 2 during the test, reducing the frequency of disassembly and replacement of the working bearing of the spindle 2, and improving the operating efficiency of the testing machine; suitable axial clearances are designed between the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94 and between the left bearing seat 91 and the right bearing seat 92 to ensure that there is sufficient axial displacement space between the left and right loading seats 94 and between the left and right bearing seats 92 during axial loading, thereby facilitating axial loading.
[0040] The bearing loading seat 9 in this embodiment also includes a radial loading mechanism disposed on the outer peripheral surfaces of the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94, for radially loading the bearing under test. The radial loading mechanism includes a radial loading cylinder 99. Two pairs of axial protrusions 10 are staggered at the ends of the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94 that are close to each other. The radial loading cylinder 99 is arranged radially between the axial protrusions 10 on the same side. One end of the radial cylinder is fixed to the axial protrusion 10 on the left loading seat, and the other end abuts against the axial protrusion 10 on the right loading seat 94.
[0041] In use, the piston rods of the two symmetrically arranged radial cylinders extend to drive the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94 to misalign radially, thereby achieving radial loading on the two bearings under test. It should be noted that the radial misalignment displacement of the left loading seat 93 and the right loading seat 94 is matched with the radial movement of the loading connecting rod relative to the through holes on the left end cover 95, the left loading seat 93, the right loading seat 94, and the right end cover 96.
[0042] It should be noted that in this embodiment, two radial hydraulic cylinders arranged vertically and horizontally on both sides of the left and right loading seats apply parallel radial forces to the left and right bearings to be tested through the left and right loading seats and the left and right bearing seats. The two equal and opposite radial forces act between the left and right bearing seats, are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and are radially balanced. The resultant force on the main shaft 2 and the bearing assembly 3 on the main shaft 2 is zero. Therefore, the main shaft 2 and the bearing assembly 3 on the main shaft 2 do not bear the radial force applied to the bearings to be tested by the radial loading cylinder 99, but only bear a small torque. The two equal and opposite radial forces are not collinear, but the distance between the axes of force action is short. Therefore, the torque on the main shaft 2 of the testing machine is small.
[0043] In addition, in this embodiment, the left loading seat 93 is connected to the right loading seat 94 via the loading seat connecting rod 97a to form a parallel four-bar linkage structure, with a ball joint connection at the mating surface. Appropriate axial clearances are designed between the two loading seats and the two bearing seats 31. Therefore, when the radial cylinder applies radial force, this parallel four-bar linkage mechanism can ensure that the left and right loading seats and the left and right bearing seats move radially (vertically) in parallel without constraint, friction, or interference, achieving accurate, reliable, and parallel radial loading.
[0044] This embodiment also includes two balancing cylinders 15 disposed at the bottom of the bearing loading seat 9. The balancing cylinders 15 are used to balance the weight of the bearing loading seat and the bearing to be tested. The two balancing cylinders are symmetrically arranged. One end of the balancing cylinder 15 is fixed relative to the base 1, and the other end of the balancing cylinder 15 is connected to the connecting lug on the bottom outer peripheral surface of the left end cover 95 through a hinge.
[0045] It should be noted that a balance cylinder 15 is installed at the bottom of the bearing loading seat 9. By adjusting the pressure of the hydraulic system, the balance cylinder 15 outputs a corresponding upward thrust to balance the weight of the bearings to be tested and the bearing loading seats of different specifications, so that the spindle 2 of the testing machine does not bear the weight of the bearings to be tested and the bearing loading seat 9. In addition, the balance cylinder 15 can also prevent the circumferential oscillation of the bearing loading seat 9 when the spindle 2 rotates, which is beneficial to the operation and testing of the testing machine and improves the accuracy of the test.
[0046] The beneficial effects of this embodiment compared to the prior art are:
[0047] In this embodiment, the bearing loading seat employs a closed internal force balancing mechanism to apply radial and axial forces to the bearing under test. Simultaneously, a balancing cylinder is located at the bottom of the bearing loading seat to balance the weight of the testing fixture and the bearing under test. Therefore, the working bearing of the testing machine spindle only bears a relatively small torque load, simplifying the structural design of the testing spindle (significantly reducing the diameter of the spindle and the size of the working bearing), reducing the torque and power of the drive device, decreasing the size and cost of the testing machine, and increasing the service life of the spindle working bearing during testing. This also reduces the frequency of disassembly and replacement of the spindle working bearing, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the testing machine.
