Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model discloses a wet lubrication double-row tapered roller bearing, belonging to the technical field of bearings. Background Art

[0002] High-speed rail axle box bearings select different axle box bearings according to different loads and different working environments. Among them, double-row tapered roller bearings are common high-speed rail axle box bearings. The bearings are mainly composed of an outer ring, a rotor, a retaining frame and an inner ring. The two inner rings are installed in reverse, and the raceway adopts a tapered raceway, which is a rolling bearing formed by the cooperation of tapered rollers and outer rings.

[0003] Rolling contact fatigue is a common failure type of axle box bearings. Wear is one of the main causes of double-row tapered roller bearing failures. When the outer ring is subjected to a large impact force during operation and causes deformation of the outer shape, it will not only accelerate the loss of lubricating oil inside the bearing, but also cause external dirt and dust to enter the bearing, resulting in various damages caused by impurities. Therefore, the use of rolling bearings needs to be guaranteed by good lubrication. Grease lubrication or lubricating oil lubrication can be used according to different use occasions. The lubricating medium can effectively reduce the friction of the bearing and reduce the occurrence of wear problems to ensure a good service life of the bearing.

[0004] At present, most of the double-row tapered roller bearings on the market are lubricated with lubricating oil, but the lubricating oil is easy to lose when the bearing is working, resulting in poor lubrication effect. In addition, when the bearing rotates, especially at high speed, the grease will move toward the outer ring under the action of centrifugal force, and the rollers of the tapered roller bearing are distributed in a conical surface, which will produce an axial "pumping effect" during operation, throwing the grease toward the seal, making the center area gradually poor in oil, resulting in a grease distribution condition in which the two ends of the tapered roller bearing are more grease and the center area is relatively less grease. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that when the existing double-row tapered roller bearing rotates at high speed, the grease is thrown to the sealing part under the action of centrifugal force, so that the central area gradually becomes poor in oil, resulting in poor lubrication effect.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: a wet-lubricated double-row tapered roller bearing, comprising an inner ring, wherein an oil storage chamber, an oil outlet pipeline and an oil inlet pipeline are arranged inside the inner ring, the oil storage chamber is a columnar structure, and one end extends out of the inner wall of the inner ring to form an air inlet hole, and an adaptive oil circuit piston is arranged near the end of the oil storage chamber near the air inlet hole; one end of the oil outlet pipeline is connected with the end of the oil storage chamber away from the oil circuit piston, and the other end extends to the outer wall of the inner ring, and an oil control component is arranged at the outlet end of the oil outlet pipeline, and the oil inlet pipeline extends along the outer end surface of the inner ring into the oil storage chamber.

[0007] Among them, the above structure also includes an oil outlet cavity, which penetrates obliquely along the outer wall of the inner ring and extends to the inner wall of the inner ring. The outlet of the oil outlet pipeline is connected to the middle of the oil outlet cavity, and the oil control component is arranged in the oil outlet cavity.

[0008] Furthermore, the oil control assembly in the above structure includes an oil outlet piston and an elastic member, one end of the elastic member is connected to the inner ring end penetrating into the oil outlet cavity, and the other end is connected to the oil outlet piston, and the oil outlet piston is adapted to the oil outlet cavity and placed in the oil outlet cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above structure, the oil outlet piston is a truncated cone structure, and the large end surface is connected to the end of the elastic member.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above structure, the oil storage chamber is radially arranged in the middle of the inner ring and is arranged in an annular manner.

[0011] Furthermore, in the above structure, a single oil storage cavity is connected to at least one oil outlet pipeline, and the oil outlet pipeline is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the oil outlet cavity.

[0012] The structure also includes a tapered roller, which is arranged in a ring shape on the outer wall of the inner ring, and the outlet end of the oil outlet pipeline is arranged opposite to the tapered roller.

[0013] Furthermore, the above structure also includes an outer ring and a retaining frame, wherein the outer ring is sleeved outside the inner ring, the tapered roller is arranged between the inner ring and the outer ring through the retaining frame, and a sealing ring is arranged outside the retaining frame.

[0014] Furthermore, in the above structure, an oil injection pipeline connected to the lubricating oil circuit inside the bearing seat is arranged on the outer ring, and the outlet of the oil injection pipeline is close to the inner end side of the tapered roller.

[0015] Wherein, the above structure also includes an oil unloading passage, which is arranged inside the inner ring and extends along the outer wall of the inner ring to the outer end surface of the inner ring.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0017] 1. In addition to using the lubricating oil added to the outer ring for lubrication, the oil storage cavity can also store a certain amount of lubricating grease, and the left and right sides of the bearing are lubricated separately, which can improve the lubrication efficiency and capacity, do not require frequent lubrication, and reduce manpower consumption.

[0018] 2. The way to reduce contact friction is to have a sufficient low-friction isolation layer between the contact surfaces. There is always a lubricating medium inside the wet-lubricated bearing, so that when the lubricating grease with a certain viscosity is sheared, a pressure layer will be generated. This pressure layer is the common oil film, which promotes the complete lubrication of the inner and outer rings and spreads the lubricating oil all over the contact wall, which can fully reduce the loss caused by wear and increase the service life of the machinery.

[0019] 3. The sealing ring on the outside of the cage not only prevents external dust and dirt from entering the inner ring, but also prevents the leakage of lubricating oil, thereby reducing various damages caused by the invasion of external impurities.

[0020] 4. The setting of the outer ring adding lubricating medium from the center of the bearing and the intermediate oil replenishing mechanism can use centrifugal force to make the grease better lubricate the entire wall surface and achieve better lubrication effect. It can also effectively alleviate the "pumping effect" that throws grease to the seal, making the central area gradually poor in oil, resulting in a lubricating oil distribution condition with more grease at both ends of the tapered roller bearing and relatively less grease in the center.

[0021] 5. The setting of the oil circuit piston and the design of the elastic piston structure can better control the addition of lubricating oil, avoiding the situation of excessive lubricating oil at times and insufficient lubricating oil later.

[0022] 6. The inner ring lubrication structure uses the elastic part to compress inward when the bearing is working, driving the oil outlet piston to move inward, so that the oil outlet mechanism opens and the lubricating oil flows out for lubrication. This setting increases the grease lubrication time and thus extends the service life of the machine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In fact, an oil inlet pipeline 5 is opened on the outer side of the inner ring 6. When the bearing is working, the oil inlet of the inner ring 6 is blocked by a cylindrical sealing plug to prevent grease leakage. At the same time, there is a columnar oil storage chamber 10 in the center of the inner ring 6.
