Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to the test of bearing cages, in particular to a stretching tooling for bearing cages. Background Art

[0002] With the development of new energy vehicles, new energy vehicles have higher requirements for the high-temperature and high-speed application conditions of the bearings of drive motors. In the rapid speed change condition of EV motors, the impact force generated by rolling elements and cages causes large surface stress or internal normal stress on the surface of cage pocket holes and inside the cross beams, which easily leads to the fracture of cages. Therefore, during the design and manufacturing process, it is necessary to test the tensile strength of cages for improvement. At present, during the cage stretching test, two hooked ends are inserted into the ball pocket holes of the cage. During the stretching process, the cage is likely to slip off from the hooked ends, resulting in test failure.

[0003] For example, in the technical solution disclosed in Chinese Patent CN219391613U, it includes a lower fixing seat and an upper stretching seat. Positioning columns are connected to the upper end of the lower fixing seat and the bottom end of the upper stretching seat. Threads are machined on the outer sides of the positioning columns. Two nuts for fixing are screwed on the outer sides of the positioning columns. A positioning block for supporting the inner side of the cage is arranged between the two nuts. A connection hole is machined in the middle of the positioning block. The positioning block is sleeved on the positioning column through the connection hole. An arc surface adapted to the inner ring of the cage is arranged on the surface of the positioning block. However, it still has the problem that during the stretching process, the cage is likely to slip off from the hooked ends or has a large deformation, which affects the accuracy of the tensile test and leads to test failure.
