Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bearings, and in particular to a needle roller bearing. Background Art
[0002] Needle roller bearings are roller bearings with cylindrical rollers that are thin and long relative to their diameter. These rollers are called needle rollers. Despite their small cross-section, the bearings still have a high load-bearing capacity. The thin, long rollers in needle roller bearings result in a compact radial structure. When the bore size and load capacity are the same as those of other bearing types, the outer diameter is the smallest, making them particularly suitable for support structures with restricted radial mounting dimensions.
[0003] Patent No. CN221647411U discloses a needle roller bearing. The needle roller bearing, by providing a first spring, a retaining ring, a frame, a third retaining groove, a first retaining groove, and a second retaining groove, can limit the frame through the retaining ring and the third retaining groove. This effectively prevents displacement of the frame during operation and reduces the impact on work when the frame is not operational. The bearing is easy to use and has a simple structure. However, the bearing's retaining method for the needle rollers requires replacement of each needle roller individually during operation, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, increasing the cost of bearing maintenance.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the limit plate with the installation groove can be used to fix the position of the needle roller, which also provides convenience for the later replacement of the needle roller and reduces the time required for the maintenance of the needle roller bearing.
[0009] Preferably, the limiting mechanism further includes a rotation groove, which is opened on the upper side of the retaining frame and is rotatably connected to the limiting plate.

The retaining groove is opened on the right side of the top of the retaining frame, and the bottom of the driving plate is fixedly connected to the right side of the top of the limit plate.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving plate in the retaining groove can be used to move the limiting plate, thereby improving the efficiency of the step of rotating the limiting plate to expose the needle roller and reducing the production cost of the needle roller bearing.
[0013] Preferably, the retaining mechanism further comprises a spring, the spring is fixedly connected to the front side of the driving plate, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the front side of the retaining groove.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic force of the spring itself can be used to limit the position of the driving plate, thereby preventing the bearing vibration from driving the limit plate to rotate and enhancing the stability of the needle roller position.
[0015] Preferably, the rolling mechanism includes a rolling groove, the rolling groove is opened on the top of the retaining frame, and the rolling groove has the same diameter as the mounting groove.

[0017] Preferably, the rolling mechanism further includes a needle roller, which is rotatably connected to the rolling groove, and the number and spacing of the rolling groove, needle roller and mounting groove are consistent.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the characteristics of the needle roller itself can be utilized, the structure is compact and the volume is small, the rotation accuracy is high, and the application range of the bearing is expanded.
[0019] (3) Beneficial effects
[0020] This application provides a needle roller bearing. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. The needle roller bearing is provided with a limit mechanism. When the needle roller needs to be installed or removed, the limit plate in the rotating groove is rotated until the installation groove and the rolling groove coincide with each other. The needle roller can then be removed or installed, avoiding the need to replace the needle rollers one by one, improving the convenience of installing and removing the needle rollers, reducing the workload, shortening the operation time, improving work efficiency, and reducing the cost of bearing maintenance.
[0022] 2. The needle roller bearing is provided with a retaining mechanism to release the control of the driving plate. Under the drive of the spring's own elastic force, the driving plate in the retaining groove moves to its original position, thereby limiting the position of the limit plate, achieving the purpose of limiting the needle roller, enhancing the stability of the limit plate position, and preventing the needle roller from detaching.
