[0091] It should be noted that the split cylindrical roller bearing 20 in the embodiment can be a conventional split bearing known to those skilled in the art, as long as it can meet the assembly requirements of the split bearing unit.
[0092] In another embodiment, the split cylindrical roller bearing 20 can also have a special structure for assembly. Specifically, referring to the attached Figures 8-17 , the inner ring, the retainer, and the outer ring are respectively composed of a double-half inner ring, a double-half retainer, and a double-half outer ring. The bearing assembly process and structure are as follows:
[0093] Step 1: Install the inner ring. Install the double-half inner ring 1 on the shaft. The inner diameter of the joint of the double-half inner ring 1 has an angle, which ensures that the half inner ring is assembled on the shaft without scratching the shaft diameter.
[0094] Specifically, the joint of the double half inner ring 1 is designed as a 6° cross structure, so that the connection of the two half inner rings is more firm; the gap of the double half inner ring 1 is 0.4mm-0.6mm, so that when the roller, the retainer and the bearing outer ring are all installed, the roller rolls on the raceway of the bearing inner ring. In the process of rolling of the roller between the first end of the first half inner ring and the first end of the second half inner ring and between the second end of the second half inner ring and the second end of the first half inner ring, the roller rolls through the inclined groove, and compared with the straight groove, the process of rolling of the roller through the inclined groove changes from point contact to line contact, the rolling of the roller is more linear, the vibration is reduced, the operation is more stable, and the service life is improved.
[0095] Step 2: Install the clamping ring, connect the two half clamping rings by screws, one of which is provided with a groove and a screw through hole, and the other of which is provided with a threaded hole, and the two half clamping rings are connected by the screw through the screw through hole and the threaded hole. The screw connection makes the half clamping ring tightly fixed on the half inner ring, and the half clamping ring is convenient to disassemble and assemble.
[0096] Specifically, the double half inner ring includes two half inner rings, the outer surfaces of the half inner rings are respectively provided with a first clamping groove 14-1 and a second clamping groove 14-2, the first clamping groove 14-1 and the second clamping groove 14-2 are arranged on both sides of the raceway of the half inner ring, the half clamping ring is matched with the clamping groove, the two half clamping rings in the first clamping groove 14-1 are connected by screws to form a first clamping ring 15-1, and the two half clamping rings in the second clamping groove 14-2 are connected by screws to form a second clamping ring 15-2; a first recess is arranged on the first clamping groove 14-1, and a second recess is arranged on the second clamping groove 14-2, the widths of the first recess W1 and the second recess W2 are different to prevent mismatch; the inner end surface of the half clamping ring is provided with a positioning table 16, and the outer cylindrical surface of the positioning table 16 is higher than the raceway of the half inner ring, which not only can block the cylindrical roller, but also the positioning table 16 and the half clamping ring are an integral structure, which is convenient to process and disassemble and assemble, and through the design of the half retainer cover and the half retainer seat, the cylindrical roller runs more stably.
[0097] Specifically, the joint position of the first clamping ring 15-1 is separated from the joint position of the double half inner ring by 90°, and the joint position of the second clamping ring 15-2 is separated from the joint position of the double half inner ring by 90°, so as to improve the overall strength of the bearing. If the joint position of the clamping ring is the same as the joint position of the inner ring, the joint is the weak part of the split bearing unit, which causes the bearing to be damaged in advance.
[0098] Step 3: Assemble the half retainer roller assembly, sequentially install the rollers into the half retainer seat 12-1, install the half retainer cover 12-2, and rivet the half retainer seat 12-1 and the half retainer cover 12-2 to form a non-separable half retainer roller assembly.
[0099] Step 4: Install the half-retainer roller assembly, connect the two half-retainer roller assemblies through the connecting piece 17 and the bolt, and place the two half-retainer roller assemblies on the outer raceway of the inner ring at the same time. The double half-retainer assembly is connected through the connecting piece 17, and the connecting piece 17 is provided with a plurality of through holes, and the through holes are provided with screws for fixing and connecting the double half-retainer. The connection of the two half-retainers through the connecting piece 17 is more convenient and firm.
[0100] Step 5: Install the outer ring, install the double half-outer ring on the half-retainer roller assembly; the outer ring has no retaining edge, and after assembly, the first clamping ring 15-1 and the second clamping ring 15-2 play the role of retaining edge.
[0101] Specifically, the joint of the double half-outer ring is a trapezoidal structure, and the included angle between the upper base and the waist of the trapezoidal structure is 20°, so that the matching precision of the double half-outer ring is higher.
[0102] Further, the split bearing housing 19 is assembled on the shaft 7 through two end covers, and the sealing rings 22 are arranged at the contact positions of the two end covers and the shaft 7. The sealing rings 22 are composed of two half-sealing rings, and the two half-sealing rings are matched to form a circular sealing ring.
[0103] Based on the above technical solution, the internal space of the split bearing housing 19 is sealed by the sealing ring 22, so as to avoid the split cylindrical roller bearing 20 in the split bearing housing 19 from leaking grease or external impurities from entering the split bearing housing 19 to affect the service life of the split cylindrical roller bearing 20.
[0104] It should be noted that the sealing ring 22 in the embodiment can be a common sealing ring structure for those skilled in the art, such as a felt sealing ring, as long as it can meet the assembly requirements of the split bearing unit. The sealing ring is embedded in the middle of the inner diameter of the end cover and contacts the shaft 7 to achieve sealing, as shown in Figure 7 .
[0105] In another embodiment, the sealing ring 23 can also be a special-shaped structure to improve the sealing performance. Specifically, referring to the accompanying Figures 28-32 , the outer side of the two end covers is provided with a sealing ring groove 24, and the special-shaped sealing ring 23 is assembled in the sealing ring groove 24. The outer side of the sealing ring groove is provided with a fixed plate 25, and the fixed plate 25 is fixed with the end cover of the bearing housing 19 through a fixed bolt 26. The special-shaped sealing ring 23 is in interference fit with the fixed plate 25 in the axial direction.
[0106] Specifically, the fixed plate 25 is composed of two half-fixed plates, and the two half-fixed plates are matched to form a circular fixed plate. The interface formed by the cooperation of the two half-sealing rings is a sealing ring interface 28, and the sealing ring interface 28 is arranged at an angle of 90° from the fixed plate interface 27.
[0107] Specifically, the special-shaped sealing ring 23 is composed of a body part and a sealing part, the body part extends to the inner diameter side to form the sealing part, the sealing part includes a first sealing lip 23-1 and a second sealing lip 23-2, the first sealing lip 23-1 is in contact with the shaft 7, and the second sealing lip 23-2 is in interference fit with the shaft 7 to ensure that the lubricating grease does not leak out.
[0108] Specifically, the bottom of the first sealing lip 23-1 is provided with a first sealing lip opening, and the sealing surface of the first sealing lip opening is a plane; the bottom of the second sealing lip 23-2 is provided with a second sealing lip opening, and the sealing surface of the second sealing lip opening is an obtuse angle sharp point. The actual size of the sharp point at the sealing lip is smaller than the actual size of the shaft, and the tolerance band of the size of the sharp point at the sealing lip is below the shaft. The interference amount is determined according to the rotating speed and the specific size, which effectively prevents external impurities, mud and the like from entering.
[0109] Specifically, the special-shaped sealing ring 23 is further provided with three circular arc grooves, namely a first circular arc groove 23-3, a second circular arc groove 23-4 and a third circular arc groove 23-5; the first circular arc groove 23-3 is located on the end face of the special-shaped sealing ring 23 close to the first sealing lip 23-1, the third circular arc groove 23-5 is located on the end face of the special-shaped sealing ring 23 away from the first sealing lip 23-1, and the second circular arc groove 23-4 is arranged on the side wall close to the second sealing lip 23-2. The arrangement of the first circular arc groove 23-3, the second circular arc groove 23-4 and the third circular arc groove 23-5 on the sealing ring 23 can ensure that the elastic deformation after stress does not affect the sealing effect of the sealing ring.
[0110] Specifically, the end face of the special-shaped sealing ring 23 away from the first sealing lip 23-1 is divided into a first end face part 23-6 and a second end face part 23-7 by the third circular arc groove 23-5, the second end face part 23-7 is perpendicular to the top surface of the special-shaped sealing ring 23, and the first end face part 23-6 is not perpendicular to the top surface of the special-shaped sealing ring 23. The first end face part 23-6 and the second end face part 23-7 are compressed and fixed to the fixed plate 25 in the axial direction. The first end face part 23-6 is designed to be inclined, which optimizes the sealing shape, reduces the sealing weight, and reduces the friction with the fixed plate.
[0111] Specifically, a spring can be arranged in the second circular arc groove 23-4 to improve the sealing effect of the sealing ring.
[0112] After the special-shaped sealing ring 23 is pressed into the sealing ring groove 24, a fixed plate 25 is installed at the end face of the special-shaped sealing ring 23. When the fixed plate is installed, the fixed plate interface 27 is separated from the sealing ring interface 28 by 90°, and the fixed plate is fixed by the fixed bolt 26 to prevent impurities from entering from the outside. This sealing structure is suitable for severe splashing and complete immersion and the like. When the fixed plate is installed, the lower part of the sealing ring is not deformed, the fixed plate 25 plays a role in preventing the special-shaped sealing ring 23 from falling out, and can also block part of the impurities from entering.
[0113] The sealing structure is applied to a bearing box of a split bearing unit, is suitable for severe splashing or complete immersion and the like, can ensure that the internal space of the bearing box is clean, reduce the leakage of lubricating grease, reduce the frequency of maintenance and repair, and ensure the efficient operation of equipment, and is a split sealing structure with good stress performance, long service life and high reliability.
