Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bearing detection, and in particular to an outer ring rotating bearing testing machine and a testing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As is known, rolling bearings, as an important basic component, are widely used in various mechanical equipment. The quality of rolling bearings directly affects the performance of the corresponding mechanical equipment. Therefore, in the production of bearings, it is usually necessary to fully simulate the actual working conditions to test the reliability and durability of bearings under various conditions. Most of the test bearings of existing bearing testing machines have inner rings that rotate and outer rings that remain stationary. However, there is a problem that the actual working conditions cannot be fully simulated for the bearing outer ring rotation test machine. For example, the application number is 201710131908.X, and the invention name is a bearing outer ring rotation test machine. The disclosed test bearing is installed on a load shaft, and the load shaft is installed on two bearing seats and remains stationary. In the actual working state, the test bearing uses a driving sleeve mounted on the load shaft as a rotating part, so that the outer ring of the test bearing can rotate while the inner ring is fixed on the load shaft. Secondly, a radial force is applied to the load shaft through a loading device to simulate the radial load on the test bearing in actual working conditions. Although the above technology achieves the purpose of rotating the outer ring of the bearing, the test machine cannot load the axial load, and the test machine cannot complete high-speed tests through the transmission method of the motor-driven pulley. Therefore, it is a basic demand of technical personnel in this field to propose a test machine that can simultaneously load radial force and axial force for the working condition of the bearing outer ring rotation and truly simulate its actual working condition.
