Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of dust-proof bearings, and specifically relates to a multi-functional dust-proof bearing. Background Art

[0002] A dust-proof bearing is a bearing with a dust-proof function, mainly used to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the inside of the bearing, thereby protecting the normal operation of the bearing and extending its service life. Dust-proof bearings usually have dust covers or sealing rings installed on one or both sides of the bearing to prevent external impurities from entering the inside of the bearing. The patent application with the application number CN202110398652.5 discloses a dust-proof bearing, which includes an inner ring, an outer ring that defines a bearing space with the inner ring, rolling elements located in the bearing space, and two dust-proof inner sleeves and two dust-proof outer sleeves disposed in the bearing space and on the axial two sides of the rolling elements. Each dust-proof inner sleeve includes a metal ring fixed to one of the inner ring and the outer ring, and a film connected to the metal ring and slidably pressing against the other of the inner ring and the outer ring. Each dust-proof outer sleeve includes a metal hard shell, and a seal that slidably abuts against one of the inner ring and the outer ring. The metal hard shell is fixed to the other of the inner ring and the outer ring and radially extends to have a throttling end for setting the seal. The throttling end and one of the inner ring and the outer ring define two first throttling gaps located on the axial two sides of the seal. In this way, the overall structural strength can be improved and a better sealing effect can be maintained.

[0003] When the existing equipment is in use, in order to ensure the dust-proof performance of the bearing, dust-proof gaskets are usually configured at the axial two ends of the ball bearings. By means of physical barrier, external dust is prevented from invading the inside of the bearing. Although this design can prevent external dust from invading the inside of the bearing, the presence of the dust-proof structure causes a significant decrease in the heat dissipation efficiency during the operation of the bearing. At the same time, during the lubrication process of the bearing, it is difficult for the roller area to be fully wetted by the lubricating oil, which affects the lubrication effect and is not conducive to the stable operation of the equipment.

When the bearing needs to be lubricated with lubricating oil, as the auxiliary mechanism moves, the through hole 105 is no longer blocked, and the lubricating oil dripping on the bearing will enter the annular cavity 104 through the first through port. Then, when the bearing is working, the lubricating oil in the annular cavity 104 will move to the periphery of the first ball 107 through the through hole 106 to lubricate the first ball 107.

[0023] External mechanism 2, the external mechanism 2 includes an outer ring 201 sleeved on the outer wall of the hollow column 101.

An inclined groove 204 is provided on the outer wall of the outer ring 201, and a second annular groove 203 is provided on the inner wall of the outer ring 201. When the bearing is working, as the outer ring 201 rotates, the inclined groove 204 is driven to rotate together. During the rotation of the inclined groove 204, it can induce air to generate eddy currents, taking away the heat generated by the operation of the bearing.

[0024] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figures 6 - 10 , on the basis of Embodiment 1, the present invention provides a technical solution: The dust-proof mechanism 3 includes an annular plate 301. A second ball 303 is sleeved on the outer wall of the annular plate 301, and a third ball 304 is sleeved on the outer wall of the annular plate 301. The outer wall of the annular plate 301 is rotatably connected to the second annular groove 203 through the third ball 304, and the inner wall of the annular plate 301 is rotatably connected to the first annular groove 103 through the second ball 303. The dust-proof mechanism 3 reduces the friction generated during the rotation of the device through the second ball 303 and the third ball 304. A third annular groove 302 is provided on the side of the annular plate 301 away from the annular cavity 104. An auxiliary component 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the third annular groove 302. The third annular groove 302 is used to limit the rotation range of the auxiliary component 31. An arc-shaped groove 305 is provided on the side of the annular plate 301 away from the third annular groove 302. The arc-shaped groove 305 penetrates through the annular plate 301 and extends to the side of the annular plate 301 away from the annular cavity 104. A heat dissipation groove 306 is provided on the side of the annular plate 301 away from the third annular groove 302. The heat dissipation groove 306 facilitates the device to transfer the temperature of the internal first ball 107 to the outside of the device. A hollow column 307 is fixedly connected to the side of the annular plate 301 away from the third annular groove 302. An elastic component 308 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow column 307. One end of the elastic component 308 away from the hollow column 307 is fixedly connected to a movable frame 309. The outer wall of the movable frame 309 is movably connected to the annular plate 301. When the bearing needs to be lubricated with lubricating oil, the movable frame 309 is pressed down to release the locking of the auxiliary component 31, and then the auxiliary component 31 is rotated to completely expose the opening of the arc-shaped groove 305. At this time, the external lubricating oil can enter the periphery of the first ball 107 through the arc-shaped groove 305.

[0025] The auxiliary component 31 includes a sliding ring 311. The inner wall of the sliding ring 311 is rotatably connected to the annular plate 301. A round hole 312 is formed on the side of the sliding ring 311 away from the annular plate 301. The inside of the round hole 312 is movably connected to the movable frame 309. An arc-shaped groove two 313 is formed on the side of the sliding ring 311 away from the annular plate 301. As the sliding ring 311 rotates, the opening state of the dust-proof mechanism 3 can be changed. A connecting ring 314 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding ring 311 away from the annular plate 301. A baffle 315 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring 314. As the auxiliary component 31 is unlocked, the sliding ring 311 is driven to rotate. The rotation of the sliding ring 311 can drive the arc-shaped groove two 313 and the baffle to rotate together. As the arc-shaped groove two 313 and the baffle rotate, the bearing exposes the arc-shaped groove one 305 and the through hole one 105 completely, facilitating the lubricating oil to enter the inside of the bearing.
