Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0028] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 This application is described in further detail.

[0029] The present application embodiment discloses a gas pressure balanced four-row tapered roller bearing. Figure 1-5 The air pressure balanced four-row tapered roller bearing comprises an inner ring group 1 and an outer ring group 2. An installation gap 200 is arranged between the outer peripheral wall of the inner ring group 1 and the inner peripheral wall of the outer ring group 2. The installation gap 200 has four rows of roller installation grooves. A plurality of tapered rollers 3 are rotatably mounted in the roller installation grooves. An annular retainer 4 for relatively fixing the tapered rollers 3 is arranged in each row of roller installation grooves. The two ends of the installation gap 200 are sealed by two groups of oil seal groups 5 respectively. A plurality of inner vent holes 300 are arranged radially on the inner ring group 1. A plurality of outer ventilation holes 400 are radially arranged on the outer ring group 2, and air pressure balance holes 500 are arranged on both end surfaces of the outer ring group 2. The air pressure balance holes 500, the inner ventilation holes 300, and the outer ventilation holes 400 are all connected to the installation gap 200 and are filled with air-permeable and grease-proof materials 6 inside. The number of the outer ventilation holes 400 is between 4 and 14, and the plurality of outer ventilation holes 400 are symmetrically spaced around the central axis of the bearing, and the spacing between adjacent inner ventilation holes 300 is 0.2 to 0.4 times the radius of the inner ring group 1.

[0030] In order to ensure that more grease can be loaded on the inner peripheral wall of the bearing to improve the lubrication characteristics and reduce wear, the inner surface of the inner ring group 1 is provided with a spiral grease groove 100, and each circle of the spiral grease groove 100 corresponds to 3-8 evenly spaced inner vents 300, wherein the inner vents 300 on adjacent circles of the spiral grease groove 100 are staggered. In this embodiment, the open end of the spiral grease groove 100 does not extend to the end of the inner ring group 1. In other embodiments, according to specific needs, the open end of the spiral grease groove 100 can also extend to both ends of the inner ring group 1.

[0031] The multiple internal ventilation holes 300 arranged in a spiral and staggered manner are more evenly distributed, which is conducive to the inner wall of the bearing being fully connected with the installation gap 200 and maintaining a ventilated state. At the same time, the structural distribution is relatively uniform, which has less impact on the structural strength of the inner ring group 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, the tapered roller 3 divides the bearing into load zone 1, load zone 2, load zone 3 and load zone 4. A portion of the external vent holes 400 are evenly spaced on the dividing line between load zone 1 and load zone 2, and the remaining external vent holes 400 are evenly spaced on the dividing line between load zone 3 and load zone 4, and there are 4-7 external vent holes 400 on each of the two dividing lines.

[0033] The outer vent hole 400 and the inner vent hole 300 designed as above are more convenient for the processing and manufacturing of the bearing before assembly, and the outer vent hole 400 can also be used as an oil filling hole before being filled with the breathable and grease-proof material 6. It is just that after assembly, the breathable and grease-proof material 6 is filled for sealing, so that one hole can be used for multiple purposes.

[0034] In order to reduce the adverse effect of drilling on the structural strength of the inner ring group 1 and the outer ring group 2, a first high-carbon alloy steel sleeve 7 is arranged in the inner vent hole 300, and a second high-carbon alloy steel sleeve 8 is arranged in the outer vent hole 400. The air-permeable and grease-proof material 6 is filled in the first high-carbon alloy steel sleeve 7 and the second high-carbon alloy steel sleeve 8. In order to adapt to the structure of the spiral grease groove 100, the inner end of the first high-carbon alloy steel sleeve 7 is designed as a concave arc structure, see Figure 4 Before interference fitting the first high carbon alloy steel sleeve 7 and the second high carbon alloy steel sleeve 8, the first high carbon alloy steel sleeve 7 and the second high carbon alloy steel sleeve 8 may be filled with an air permeable and grease-proof material 6 in advance to reduce the difficulty of manufacturing and assembly.

[0035] In this embodiment, the breathable and grease-impermeable material 6 is a nano-coated sponge, a polypropylene nano-composite material or a microporous PET breathable material. The above material selection not only has good chemical stability and is not easily deteriorated due to high temperature generated by friction, but also has good air permeability and good barrier properties to grease.

[0036] In this embodiment, based on the existing production equipment, in order to reduce the difficulty of producing the inner ring group 1, the inner ring group 1 includes a first inner ring 11 and a second inner ring 12, the first inner ring 11 and the second inner ring 12 correspond to two rows of tapered rollers 3 respectively, and an inner sealing groove is provided at the connection between the inner side walls of the first inner ring 11 and the second inner ring 12, and an inner diameter sealing ring 13 is embedded and fixed in the inner sealing groove. The above-mentioned split inner ring group 1 is not only easy to produce and assemble, but also improves the inner side sealing of the bearing by adding the inner sealing groove and the inner diameter sealing ring 13.

[0037] The inner diameter seal ring 13 includes an inner ring frame 131 and an inner ring rubber layer 132. The inner ring rubber layer 132 is wrapped around the outer surface of the inner ring frame 131, and a notch 1321 is provided at one corner of the inner ring rubber layer 132 to allow one corner of the inner ring frame 131 to leak out. The inner diameter seal ring 13 designed as above is not only simple to manufacture, but also has a firm and stable structure and is easy to assemble. Moreover, the design of the notch 1321 can provide a certain activity space for the inner diameter seal ring 13, effectively avoiding structural damage caused by excessive assembly of the inner diameter seal ring 13.

[0038] The inner ring rubber layer 132 should meet the requirements of JB / T6639 standard, and the inner ring skeleton 131 and the inner ring rubber layer 132 should be firmly bonded, wherein the inner ring skeleton 131 is deburred and the surface is phosphated for rust prevention, and the surface roughness of the inner ring rubber layer 132 should reach Ra1.6.

[0039] In this embodiment, based on the existing production equipment, in order to reduce the difficulty of producing the outer ring group 2, the outer ring group 2 includes a central outer ring 21, two side outer rings 22, two end retaining rings 23 and two outer spacers 24, one outer spacer 24 is sandwiched between one end of the central outer ring 21 and one side outer ring 22, and the other outer spacer 24 is sandwiched between the other end of the central outer ring 21 and the other side outer ring 22. The two end retaining rings 23 are respectively located at the two end surfaces of the bearing, the air pressure balance hole 500 is provided on the end retaining ring 23, the outer vent hole 400 is provided on the outer spacer 24, and the oil seal group 5 is installed between the inner side of the end retaining ring 23 and the outer side of the inner ring group 1. The air pressure balance hole 500 is an L-shaped structure, and the inner end of the air pressure balance hole 500 does not have any contact with the oil seal group 5 to ensure a good air permeability environment. An O-ring 25 is also embedded on the outer peripheral wall of the end retaining ring 23 to seal the grease between the outer peripheral wall of the bearing and the external component as much as possible.

[0040] The above-mentioned split outer ring group 2 is not only easy to manufacture and assemble, but also reduces the possibility of oil leakage of the bearing by adding the oil seal group 5.

[0041] In this embodiment, the oil seal group 5 includes an oil seal skeleton 51, an oil seal rubber layer 52 and a clamping spring 53. The oil seal rubber layer 52 is wrapped around the outer side of the oil seal skeleton 51. The oil seal rubber layer 52 is provided with an annular groove corresponding to the clamping spring 53. One end face of the oil seal rubber layer 52 is pressed against the outer peripheral wall of the inner ring group 1 through the clamping spring 53, and the other end face of the oil seal rubber layer 52 is pressed against the inner peripheral wall of the outer ring group 2 through the oil seal skeleton 51. The above oil seal group 5 is not only simple in structure, firmly assembled and not easy to loosen, but also has a good sealing effect on grease, further reducing the possibility of oil leakage of the bearing.

[0042] The oil seal rubber layer 52 and the inner ring rubber layer 132 should meet the requirements of JB / T6639 standard, and the oil seal skeleton 51 and the oil seal rubber layer 52 should be firmly bonded, wherein the oil seal skeleton 51 is deburred and the surface is phosphated for rust prevention, and the surface roughness of the oil seal rubber layer 52 should reach Ra1.6.

[0043] Some parameters of the air pressure balanced four-row tapered roller bearing of the embodiment of the present application are as follows: Dimension accuracy: Class2, rotation accuracy: P5, rated load: Cr=1670KN Cor=3930KN, axial clearance: 0.36-0.45mm, radial clearance: 0.096-0.12mm, filling grease: Mobilith SHC 460 (0.57±0.03Kg), the outer wall of the outer ring group 2 is divided into four grades and marked with Roman numerals Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ to distinguish the four load zones.

[0044] The beneficial technical effects of the air pressure balanced four-row tapered roller bearing of the embodiment of the present application are roughly as follows: By adding an air pressure balance hole 500, multiple internal air holes 300, and multiple external air holes 400, and combining the series effect of the installation gap 200 to connect all the above holes, due to the good air permeability of the air-permeable and grease-impermeable material 6, the air pressure on the inner side, outer side and end face of the bearing can be kept consistent, that is, the air pressure balance state is always maintained during use, so that the grease in the bearing installation gap 200, the grease on the inner peripheral wall of the bearing, and the grease on the outer peripheral wall of the bearing are not easy to leak due to the air pressure difference, and external pollutants and particles are not easy to enter the interior of the bearing due to the pressure difference after cooling, which effectively prevents the internal grease from contaminating and failing and the internal wear of the bearing. In addition, the air-permeable and grease-impermeable material 6 also has the characteristic of blocking grease penetration, which is not easy to cause the grease in the bearing installation gap 200, the grease on the inner peripheral wall of the bearing, and the grease on the outer peripheral wall of the bearing to have oil cross-talk, making the bearing not easy to be damaged, and greatly extending the service life of the bearing.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
