Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bearings, and particularly relates to a cage of a cylindrical roller bearing which is convenient for refueling. Background Art

[0002] The existing cage of a cylindrical roller bearing is a key component of the cylindrical roller bearing. Its main function is to evenly separate the cylindrical rollers so that the rollers can roll smoothly in the raceway and maintain their relative positions to avoid mutual collision and friction between the rollers.

[0003] However, during its use, there is no automatic lubrication function. During high-speed operation, the lubricating oil may not be replenished in time to the contact area between the rollers and the raceway, which will lead to a significant increase in the friction coefficient due to the increase in direct contact between metals. Moreover, during high-speed operation, the existing cage cannot adjust the supply of lubricating oil according to the rotational speed. The lubrication method without an automatic adjustment function is difficult to provide a thick and stable oil film at high speeds. When the bearing rotates at high speed, the oil film may rupture, resulting in direct contact between the rollers and the raceway, increasing wear and energy loss. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a cage of a cylindrical roller bearing which is convenient for refueling. After adding lubricating oil into the interior of the fuel tank through the oil injection port, when the bearing rotates at high speed, under the action of centrifugal force, the slider will move outward, thereby driving the cover plate to move and opening the oil discharge port. At this time, the oil will automatically drain from the interior of the fuel tank to achieve automatic lubrication, ensuring that there is always lubricating oil between the rollers and the raceway, enabling the bearing to maintain a good lubrication state during high-speed operation, and being able to control the discharge of lubricating oil according to the magnitude of the centrifugal force, matching the high-speed operation of the bearing. When the rotational speed of the bearing increases, the centrifugal force increases, the spring will be compressed more, the opening degree of the sealing cover of the oil discharge port will increase, and the discharge amount of the lubricating oil will also increase accordingly, so as to meet the lubrication requirements under high-speed conditions.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] 1. Compared with the prior art, for the cage of the cylindrical roller bearing facilitating refueling, after adding lubricating oil into the interior of the fuel tank through the oil injection port, when the bearing rotates at high speed, under the action of centrifugal force, the slider will move outward, thereby driving the cover plate to move and opening the oil drain port.

[0023] Refer to Figures 1-4, in an embodiment of the utility model, a cage for a cylindrical roller bearing facilitating refueling includes: a cage body 14 for supporting cylindrical rollers 13. A plurality of roller grooves 22 are provided on the cage body 14 for carrying the cylindrical rollers 13. The cylindrical rollers 13 are rotatably connected inside the plurality of roller grooves 22. The inner surface of the cage body 14 is rotatably connected to an inner ring 7, and the outer surface of the cage body 14 is rotatably connected to an outer ring 4. Dust covers 16 are movably connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 4. A side plate 15 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the dust cover 16, and the side plate 15 is movably connected to the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 4. A rubber pad 18 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the dust cover 16, and the rubber pad 18 is movably connected to the upper surface of an oil tank 23. Four card slots 3 are provided on each of the two dust covers 16, and the four card slots 3 are symmetrically arranged. A buckle 5 is movably connected inside the card slot 3. An anti-slip coating 17 is provided on the inner surface of the buckle 5, and the anti-slip coating 17 is movably connected to the card slot 3. A connecting block 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one of the dust covers 16, and a slot 1 is provided on the connecting block 2.

[0024] A cushion block 6 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the other dust cover 16, and the cushion block 6 is in clearance fit with the slot 1. Oil tanks 23 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the cage body 14 for storing oil. A plurality of oil discharge ports 12 are provided on the oil tank 23 for discharging lubricating oil to the surfaces of the cylindrical rollers 13 and the roller grooves 22. A plurality of slide rails 10 are fixedly connected to the inner surface of the oil tank 23 for enabling a slider 9 to slide linearly inside. A spring 11 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the slide rail 10 for resetting the slider 9. The other end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the slider 9. A cover plate 8 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the slider 9 for shielding the oil discharge port 12. A sealing piece 19 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the cover plate 8, and the sealing piece 19 is movably connected to an oil injection port 21. The cover plate 8 is movably connected to the oil discharge port 12. An oil injection port 21 is provided on the upper surface of the oil tank 23, and a sealing cover 20 is movably connected to the inner wall of the oil injection port 21.

[0025] Working principle: When in use, when the bearing starts to operate and the rotational speed is low, due to the small centrifugal force, the centrifugal force acting on the slider 9 is not sufficient to overcome the elastic force of the spring 11. At this time, the slider 9 basically remains in the initial position, and the cover plate 8 continues to block the oil drain port 12, and a large amount of lubricating oil will not be discharged from the oil drain port 12. Only a small amount of lubricating oil may slowly seep out through the tiny gap between the cover plate 8 and the oil drain port 12 to provide preliminary lubrication for the cylindrical roller 13 and the roller groove 22. As the rotational speed of the bearing gradually increases, the centrifugal force increases. When the centrifugal force is greater than the elastic force of the spring 11, the slider 9 will move outward along the slide rail 10. While the slider 9 moves outward, it will drive the cover plate 8 to move together, causing the cover plate 8 to gradually open the oil drain port 12. As the rotational speed further increases and the centrifugal force increases, the spring 11 will be further compressed, the opening degree of the sealing cover of the oil drain port 12 will increase, and the discharge amount of the lubricating oil will also increase accordingly. The lubricating oil discharged from the oil drain port 12 will accurately flow to the surfaces of the cylindrical roller 13 and the roller groove 22 to provide sufficient lubrication for them, ensuring that the bearing maintains a good lubrication state during high-speed operation.

[0026] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
