Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing technology, and in particular to an industrial robot turntable bearing. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most specialized bearings rely on imports, so there is an urgent need for bearing localization in China.
[0003] Industrial robot turntable bearings are thin-walled bearings with a square cross-section and uniform dimensions. High-precision robot turntable bearings need to meet the following performance requirements: 1. High precision requirements; 2. Low and uniform frictional torque: preventing unstable operation or jamming; 3. Significantly saves installation space: the inner and outer ring dimensions of the turntable bearing are minimized, especially the ultra-thin structure, which is close to the limit of small size. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, an industrial robot turntable bearing is provided.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bearing includes an outer ring, which is concentrically arranged with the inner ring, and a non-horizontal square annular cavity is formed between the inner wall of the outer ring and the outer wall of the inner ring, and irregularly shaped rolling elements are arranged alternately within the square annular cavity.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that the bearing inner ring includes an inner ring assembly one and an inner ring assembly two, the inner ring assembly one and the inner ring assembly two being stacked and fastened by bolts.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that both the inner ring component one and the inner ring component two are provided with inclined surfaces, and the junction of the inclined surfaces is a 90-degree right angle.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that the rolling element includes rollers, with adjacent rollers arranged alternately and placed within corresponding non-horizontal square annular cavities.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that an isolator is provided between adjacent rollers, the isolator being semi-enclosed around the rollers, and the isolator being disposed on an isolator ring at the top of the rollers.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that the annular surface of the roller is set as a raised arc shape, and the inner wall of the inner ring assembly one, the inner ring assembly two, and the inner wall of the bearing outer ring and their contact surface are all set as concave surfaces.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that the roller ring surface, inner ring assembly one, inner ring assembly two, and the inner wall of the bearing outer ring are all provided with an anti-wear coating at the contact points with the roller ring surface.
[0012] Beneficial effects: The industrial robot turntable bearing of this utility model adopts a staggered roller arrangement, which effectively improves the bearing's load-bearing capacity, and the irregularly shaped rollers have a larger diameter and are more stable. Attached Figure Description
