[0002] Bearing rollers are the components that bear the load when the bearing is running, and have an important impact on the working performance and service life of the bearing. They are the weakest parts in the roller bearing, and the manufacturing quality directly affects the performance of the bearing such as rotation accuracy, vibration, noise and flexibility. There are many types of bearing rollers, including tapered rollers, cylindrical rollers, spherical rollers, spiral rollers and various needle rollers.

The output shaft of the upper hydraulic rod 5 passes through the outer cylinder 3 and is fixedly connected to the top of the upper movable cylinder 9, and the output shafts of the two lower hydraulic rods 5 are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 8. A discharge pipe 2 is fixed to the bottom of the outer cylinder 3, so that the roller can be heat treated at a lower temperature first to enhance the strength of the roller. After air cooling, high-temperature heat treatment is performed again, which can reduce the occurrence of end jump of the roller during high-temperature heat treatment. A material guide funnel 10 is fixed inside the outer cylinder 3, so that the roller can accurately enter the interior of the heating mechanism 6 below, and a plurality of leaks 22 are provided at the bottom of the feed funnel 4 and the bottom of the material guide funnel 10, so that the roller can leak out, and the sealing ring 21, the bottom end of the feed funnel 4 and the bottom end of the material guide funnel 10 are all located inside the cylinder 25, so that the roller will not leak outside the cylinder 25.
[0025] Furthermore, a feeding mechanism 7 is provided inside the cylinder 25, and the feeding mechanism 7 includes a plurality of baffles 11. A plurality of openings 26 are provided on the outer wall of the cylinder 25. The baffle 11 is located inside the opening 26. Two limiting grooves 27 are provided inside the opening 26.

The heating mechanism 6 below performs high-temperature heat treatment on the roller, so that the roller is first subjected to low-temperature heat treatment to strengthen the strength of the roller.
