Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of bearings, and in particular relates to a high-load injection-molded bearing retainer and a bearing. Background Art

[0002] During the operation of the bearing, due to the influence of complex loads and high-speed rotation, the cage in the bearing will be subjected to great centrifugal force, impact force and vibration force, which will cause greater sliding friction between the cage and the rolling element and generate higher heat. In severe cases, it will cause wear between the cage and the rolling element, and even end of life and cannot be used any longer, thus affecting work efficiency. Therefore, how to achieve efficient heat dissipation for the cage has always been a technical issue of concern. In order to increase the heat dissipation effect, lubricating oil is usually used to flow between the cage and the rolling element to generate a lubricating oil film between the cage and the rolling element to reduce friction resistance, reduce wear and can further increase the rotation speed, so as to better meet the needs of complex working conditions.

[0003] However, the existing lubricating oil is easily thrown to both sides of the bearing in the radial direction due to the edge of the retainer, and cannot be pushed to the surface of the rolling element during high-speed operation, resulting in insufficient supply of lubricating oil between the rolling element and the retainer, thereby affecting the use effect and service life of the bearing; and in order to adapt to high-speed rotation, it is also necessary to appropriately reduce the weight of the bearing retainer, but reducing the weight will also affect the structure of the bearing retainer, causing the mechanical strength of the bearing retainer to decrease. How to achieve the mechanical strength of the bearing retainer while reducing the weight of the bearing retainer is a technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0047] Embodiment 3: The oil passage groove 6 of the lintel 2 is arranged on the inner side of the lintel 2 along the radial direction of the retaining ring 1.

[0048] As a preferred embodiment, a groove 8 is provided on the other side of the beam 2 along the axial direction of the retaining ring 1 opposite to the oil groove 6, and the groove 8 passes through the beam 2 along the radial direction of the retaining ring 1, and a claw 9 for locking the ball is formed between the groove 8 and the pocket 4.

[0049] The groove 8 can further reduce the weight of the cage. The lubricating oil flows in the groove 8 and the oil groove 6 respectively. A part of the lubricating oil enters the inner circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1 through the groove 8, and enters the inner wall of the pocket 4 of the support frame 3, so as to realize the lubrication between the rolling element and the cage, enhance the circulation performance of the lubricating oil, thereby improving the lubrication effect of the rolling element, reducing the wear caused by the sliding friction between the rolling element and the cage, fully taking away the heat brought by the work, and improving the bearing life.

[0050] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a first guiding bevel 10 is provided on the side of the claw 9 facing the lintel 2, and a second guiding bevel 11 is provided on the side of the claw 9 facing the pocket 4.

The lubricating liquid flowing through the lintel 2 can directly enter the inner wall of the pocket 4 from the groove 8 through the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1, and flow through the gap between the rolling element and the retaining frame through the oil groove 6 to achieve sufficient lubrication of the rolling element, which can better meet the needs of high-speed rotation.

[0062] Embodiment 2: The oil groove 14 adopts a first transition groove and a second transition groove which are symmetrically arranged along the axial direction of the pocket hole 4, wherein the first transition groove is close to the outer circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1, and the second transition groove is close to the inner circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1. The size of the first transition groove along the circumferential direction of the retaining ring 1 gradually decreases from one side of the outer circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1 to one side of the inner circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1, and the size of the first transition groove of the second transition groove along the circumferential direction of the retaining ring 1 gradually increases from one side of the outer circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1 to one side of the inner circumferential surface of the retaining ring 1. The lubricating oil enters the inner wall of the pocket hole 4 from the first transition groove and the second transition groove respectively, and the flow area gradually increases from the outside to the inside. The externally expanded area can first allow more lubricating oil to enter the first transition groove and the second transition groove, and the internally reduced area can increase the pressure of the lubricating oil entering the first transition groove and the second transition groove to press into the inner wall of the pocket hole 4, so that more lubricating oil is injected into the inner wall of the pocket hole 4 and reaches more areas, thereby achieving sufficient lubrication of the rolling elements and the retaining frame.
