[0002] With the current market demand, the demand for light trucks at home and abroad is increasing, and the export situation is very good. However, with the increase in domestic and foreign demand, the quality of products is also constantly improving. At present, domestic light truck hub unit manufacturers include ZXY, Kaiyuan, etc., and the bearing industry has also issued relevant standards for commercial vehicle light truck hub bearings and units.
[0003] The advantages of the wheel hub unit assembly are long life, no adjustment, low maintenance, high efficiency, and environmental protection and energy saving. It is the preferred technical solution for the implementation of the National VI standard in the commercial vehicle field.
[0004] At present, regarding the wheel hub bearing units, the wheel hub bearing units of foreign brands SKF and FAG are not heavy-duty enough because there is no intermediate sleeve between the inner bearing and the outer bearing; although the wheel hub bearing units of foreign brand Kangmai are equipped with an intermediate sleeve between the inner bearing and the outer bearing, they are oil lubricated, which will cause high-temperature splashing during use, causing environmental pollution, and the lubricating oil must be replaced frequently, and they do not have the maintenance-free function. In addition, the starting torque of Kangmai's wheel hub bearing units is relatively large, which is not conducive to improving transmission efficiency and energy saving and efficiency improvement. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a light truck front axle wheel hub bearing unit for the Qingling KV100 light truck 100P front axle, which has a warranty mileage of 500,000 kilometers and reduces the starting torque by more than 20% compared with the wheel hub bearing unit of Kangmai.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown. An embodiment of a wheel hub bearing unit for a front axle of a light truck of the present invention is a wheel hub bearing unit developed for the front axle of the Qingling KV100 light truck 100P, which is composed of an outer bearing 1, an inner bearing 2, a wheel hub 3, an outer seal 4, an inner seal 5, a middle spacer 6, etc. Among them, the wheel hub 3, the inner bearing 2, and the outer bearing 1 are the same as those in the existing wheel hub bearing unit for the front axle of a light truck. The difference is that an middle spacer sleeve 6 is added between the inner bearing 2 and the outer bearing 1. The tightening torque of the wheel hub bearing unit for the front axle of the Qingling KV100 light truck 100P is 800Nm when the nut is working, and the axial clearance after tightening the nut is -0.05~0.10mm. During use, the middle spacer sleeve 6 made of 45# steel can compensate for the gap caused by bearing wear and keep the bearing clearance of -0.05~0.10mm stable, thereby increasing the service life of the wheel hub bearing and the unit.
[0028] Among them, the material of hub 3 is ductile iron 500, and its structure and size meet the hub design requirements of the Qingling KV100 light truck 100P front axle, and meet the design requirements of a warranty mileage of 500,000 kilometers.
[0029] The outer bearing 1 and the inner bearing 2 are long-life bearings. Compared with conventional bearings, the design has been improved in materials and processes. The bearing steel has been upgraded from conventional high-grade bearing steel to high-grade high-quality bearing steel, the bearing accuracy has been improved from conventional P0 to P6, and the processing technology level has been improved to P6 standard, meeting the 500,000-kilometer warranty mileage requirement. The outer rings of the outer bearing 1 and the inner bearing 2 are directly pressed into the wheel hub 3.
[0030] The outer bearing 1 and the inner bearing 2 are low-friction bearings. Compared with conventional bearings, the design has a special design of large inner ring rib diameter, optimized roller ball base surface contact to ensure the optimal position of the roller contact point, and improved internal contact parameters of the inner raceway, outer raceway, and roller raceway. The friction torque of the single bearing is improved by at least 20% after the improvement.
[0031] Before installing the inner ring assembly (roller, cage, inner ring) of the outer bearing 1 and the inner bearing 2, the inner ring assembly must be filled with grease. The grease is a special grease for commercial vehicle wheel hub bearing units. The operating temperature is -30℃~160℃. It is a lifetime maintenance-free grease. The bearing lubrication is grease lubrication instead of oil lubrication. It is a maintenance-free lifetime grease with a service life of more than 500,000 kilometers.
[0032] The middle spacer 6 is arranged between the outer bearing 1 and the inner bearing 2, and is made of 45# steel. During use, it can compensate for the gap caused by bearing wear, maintain a stable bearing clearance of -0.05~0.10mm, and meet the design requirement of a warranty mileage of 500,000 kilometers, thereby ensuring the long life of the hub bearing and unit. The structure and size meet the hub design requirements of the Qingling KV100 light truck 100P front axle. After the bearing is worn, due to the certain rigidity of 45# steel, the middle spacer will automatically adjust the height in the axial direction to ensure the stability of the clearance.
[0033] The outer sealing ring 4 is arranged between the outer bearing 1 and the inner end of the wheel hub 3. The outer sealing ring 4 is a single body seal, and the rubber material is brown fluororubber. After the outer bearing 1 is assembled, it is pressed into the wheel hub 3.
[0034] The inner seal ring 5 is arranged between the oil seal seat ring and the inner end of the wheel hub 3. The inner seal 5 is a combined seal. The rubber material is brown fluororubber. After the inner bearing 2 is assembled, it is pressed into the wheel hub 3.
[0035] The present invention is a wheel hub bearing unit developed for the front axle of Qingling KV100 light truck 100P, which has passed the test assembly verification and met the design requirements.
[0036] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
