Figure 1 and Figure 2 Two grease injection situations are shown, respectively, which can be used to inject grease into the outer ring of the bearing or the inner ring of the bearing.

[0033] The test assembly includes a bearing specimen, a first test bearing, a second test bearing, a loading plate 4 and a mandrel 5. The side plate of the loading plate 4 is provided with the bearing specimen. The top plate of the loading plate 4 is threadedly connected to the loading cylinder of the test machine so as to provide load for the bearing specimen, the first test bearing and the second test bearing. The mandrel 5 is a stepped shaft, and a drum-shaped structure 512 is provided at the first end of the stepped shaft. The middle section of the mandrel 5 cooperates with the inner rings of the bearing specimen, the first test bearing and the second test bearing. The mandrel 5 is connected to the swing cylinder of the test machine by means of the adapter flange 35 of the support assembly 3, so as to provide torque for the bearing specimen, the first test bearing and the second test bearing.

[0034] The support assembly 3 includes a first support seat 31, a second support seat 32, a first top block 33, a second top block, an adapter flange 35 and a locking nut. The side plates of the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32 are respectively installed with the first test bearing and the second test bearing. The bottom plates of the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32 are respectively connected to the test machine; the first top block 33 and the second top block 34 are respectively arranged on the inner side of the first support seat and the second support seat. Figure 5 As shown, the cross section of the adapter flange 35 is provided with a drum-shaped through hole 351 matching the drum-shaped structure of the stepped shaft, and the outer circumference of the outer side of the drum-shaped through hole is evenly distributed with threaded holes 352 connected to the swing cylinder of the test machine. The adapter flange 35 and the mandrel 5 are used to transmit the torque of the swing cylinder of the test machine, so that the bearing test piece, the first companion test bearing and the second companion test bearing can rotate or swing.

The first end of the grease injection tube 21 is connected to the grease injection pump 22, and the second end of the grease injection tube 21 is connected to the grease injection hole on the side plate of the loading plate or the blind hole on the core shaft, so that different bearings can be greased. When the outer ring of the bearing needs to be greased, the second end of the grease injection tube 21 can be connected to the side plate of the loading plate to achieve grease injection on the outer ring of the bearing. When the inner ring of the bearing needs to be greased, the second end of the grease injection tube 21 can be connected to the core shaft to achieve grease injection on the inner ring of the bearing. Figure 1 The figure shows the connection between the grease injection pipe 21 and the side plate of the loading plate.

[0036] In a specific embodiment, Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the loading plate 4 is the first loading plate 41 or the second loading plate 42, and the mandrel 5 is the first mandrel 51 or the second mandrel 52. When used, one of them is selected for combination according to the type of the bearing. The first loading plate 41 is used in conjunction with the second mandrel 52, and the second loading plate 42 is used in conjunction with the first mandrel 51.

Figure 1 As shown, the grease injection pipe is connected to the threaded grease injection hole on the side plate of the second loading plate 42. Since the threaded grease injection hole on the side plate of the second loading plate 42 is just located outside the grease injection groove of the outer ring of the bearing, the grease directly enters the grease injection groove 100 on the outer ring and enters the grease injection groove of the outer ring of the bearing evenly through the grease injection hole to achieve lubrication. When the inner ring of the bearing specimen is provided with a grease injection groove 101, as shown in FIG. Fig.11 As shown, that is, the bearing is an internal grease bearing, the first loading plate 41 and the second mandrel 52 are selected to be matched for internal grease injection, such as Figure 2As shown, the grease injection tube is connected to the blind hole on the end face of the second mandrel 52, and the grease is directly injected into the grease injection groove 101 on the inner ring of the bearing through three evenly distributed through holes on the outer cylindrical surface where the bottom of the blind hole is located, so as to achieve lubrication of the inner ring of the bearing. The position of the threaded grease injection hole and the three evenly distributed through holes can achieve uniform grease injection when the bearing has torque.

[0037] In the specific embodiment, the side plates of the first loading plate 41 and the second loading plate 42 are both provided with threaded holes 411 for mounting the bearing test piece, the side plates of the second loading plate 42 are provided with threaded grease injection holes 421 that penetrate the threaded holes 411, the first ends 511 of the stepped shafts of the first mandrel 51 and the second mandrel 52 are both provided with two drum-shaped structures 512 connected with the adapter flange, the second end 513 of the stepped shaft of the first mandrel 51 is provided with an external thread 514 connected with a locking nut, the second end 513 of the stepped shaft of the second mandrel 52 is provided with an external thread connected with a locking nut and an internal thread 518 that is threadedly connected with a grease injection pipe, and the middle section 515 of the mandrel is matched with the bearing test piece and the inner rings of the first and second companion test bearings. The second mandrel 52 is also provided with a blind hole 516 on the cross section on one side of the external thread, and three through holes 517 that are evenly distributed and penetrate the blind hole are provided on the outer cylindrical surface where the bottom of the blind hole 516 is located. The blind hole is connected to the grease injection pipe and further grease is injected through the through hole. The threaded grease injection hole 421 of the second loading plate is located outside the grease injection hole of the outer ring of the bearing, and the three evenly distributed through holes 517 are evenly distributed outside the grease injection hole of the inner ring of the bearing, so that even grease injection can be achieved on the basis of the torque of the bearing.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32 have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged to support the test assembly. Figure 3 The first support seat 31 is used as an example for description. Figure 3 As shown, the side plates of the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32 are provided with bearing holes 311 for installing the first test bearing and the second test bearing, and the bottom plates of the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32 are provided with threaded holes 312 connected to the testing machine.

[0039] In a specific embodiment, the first top block 33 and the second top block have the same structure and are respectively arranged on the inner side of the first support seat 31 and the second support seat 32, and are used to separate the axial positions of the first support seat 31, the second support seat 32 and the loading plate to prevent interference. Figure 4 As shown, the first top block 33 and the second top block are both provided with a through hole 331 that matches the core shaft.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, the grease injection pump is connected to a controller, and the controller controls the operation of the grease injection pump to perform a grease injection test on the bearing.

[0041] The grease injection process of the grease injection device of the utility model is described in detail below:

[0042] The grease injection interval detection test uses the torque of the core shaft rotating or swinging during the test as the detection index. The controller divides the grease injection conditions into stage one and stage two. Stage one is the fixed grease injection period, and stage two is the automatic grease injection period. The controller can set the grease injection frequency and single grease injection time of the fixed grease injection period, and detect the torque value in the whole process to realize the detection of the number of grease injections and duration.

[0043] During stage one, the duration of the entire stage one, the grease injection frequency and the single grease injection time are set, and the bearing specimen is lubricated according to the set grease injection frequency and single grease injection time. After the swing (or rotation) of the bearing specimen tends to be stable, the torque peak value of the stable swing (or rotation) stage is recorded. In stage two, the torque peak value recorded in stage one is used as the basis for the subsequent automatic grease injection judgment. In stage two, when the real-time torque value exceeds the torque peak value recorded in stage one, the software system controls the grease injection pump to automatically inject grease. If the real-time torque is always greater than the torque peak value, the grease injection continues until the real-time torque is lower than the torque peak value. Determine whether to turn on and off the automatic control and the grease injection time to ensure the lubrication requirements during the bearing test. The specific test method is as follows:

[0044] Phase 1: The first 2500 tests (the number of tests can be set)

[0045] Test conditions: Grease injection is set every 100 times, and the single grease injection time is 8s. In the early stage of the test, the grease is fully lubricated in the bearing through a certain number of swing running-in to ensure the stability of the test torque peak. The test torque peak data of the first 1200 times are not included in the screening. The maximum value of the test torque peak during the 1200-2500 test process is screened and recorded as the index value of stage 2. Table 1 and Table 2 show the grease injection conditions of stage 1 and stage 2 respectively.

[0046] Table 1 Stage 1 Grease injection conditions

[0047] Grease injection conditions Grease injection parameters Grease injection interval 100 times Single grease injection time 8s Valid data screening range The maximum value of the test torque peak value during 1200-2500 tests

[0048] Phase 2: After 2500 times until the end of the experiment

[0049] Test conditions: The peak torque value recorded in stage one is used as the basis for automatic grease injection judgment in this stage. When the test torque in stage two is greater than the peak torque value recorded in stage one, grease injection begins. The single grease injection time is 5s. If the real-time torque is always greater than the peak torque value, grease injection continues until the real-time torque is lower than the recorded peak torque value.

It can realize automatic detection of the lubrication cycle of all-metal spherical bearings while meeting the test requirements, meet the grease injection of different types of bearings and ensure the accuracy of the detection results.

[0053] The above embodiments are only descriptions of the preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
