Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bearing technology, specifically relating to a dustproof tapered roller bearing. Background Technology

[0002] Dustproof tapered roller bearings are a special type of bearing designed primarily for use in mechanical components that require the bearing to withstand large radial and axial loads. The main components of this type of bearing include an inner ring, an outer ring, rolling elements (i.e., tapered rollers), and a cage. The "dustproof" characteristic refers to the fact that these bearings are usually equipped with special sealing devices or protective covers that effectively prevent external dust, moisture, and other contaminants from entering the bearing, thereby protecting the rolling elements from damage, ensuring their normal operation, and extending their service life.

[0003] Document CN221257414U discloses a dustproof tapered roller bearing, comprising an outer ring, an inner ring fitted inside the outer ring, a sealing plate snapped onto the outer ring, a mounting plate connected to the sealing plate, a column connected to the outer ring, a retaining ring connected to the inner ring, a cage fitted inside the outer ring, tapered rollers disposed within the cage, a groove formed on the outer side of the column, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the mounting plate, a rotating plate connected to the outside of the rotating rod, and a spring fitted around the rotating rod.

[0004] However, in actual applications, although the comparison document can prevent dust from entering the bearing, the comparison document uses a spring design for limiting the movement. The spring is exposed to the air, and long-term exposure may cause rust due to moisture in the air, leading to spring failure. Utility Model Content

The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0026] Example

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a dustproof tapered roller bearing, comprising:

[0028] The bearing 100 includes an outer ring 101, an inner ring 102 fitted on the inner surface of the outer ring 101, a retainer 103 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inner ring 102 and connected thereto, a cage 104 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the outer ring 101, and tapered rollers 105 disposed on the inner surface of the cage 104.

[0029] The dustproof mechanism 200 includes a sealing plate 201 that is snapped onto the outer surface of the outer ring 101, a limiting hole 202 that is opened on the outer surface of the sealing plate 201, a slot 203 that is opened on the outer surface of the sealing plate 201 and used in conjunction with the retainer 104, a locking component 204 that is provided on the inner surface of the sealing plate 201, and a release component 205 that is used in conjunction with the locking component 204.

[0030] Specifically, the outer surface of the retainer 104 is in contact with the inner surface of the slot 203, and the sealing plate 201 is in contact with the outer surface of the outer ring 101.

[0031] Furthermore, the locking assembly 204 includes a fixing post 204a fixedly installed on the outer surface of the outer ring 101, a mounting groove 204b formed on the inner surface of the fixing post 204a, a plurality of limiting blocks 204c disposed on the inner surface of the fixing post 204a and used in conjunction with the mounting groove 204b, and a spring block 204d fixedly installed on the outer end face of the limiting block 204c.

[0032] Furthermore, the outer surface of the fixing post 204a contacts the inner surface of the limiting hole 202, and the mounting groove 204b includes an insertion end 204b-1 and a locking end 204b-2, which are connected.

[0033] Specifically, by rotating the spring block 204d, the limiting block 204c slides on the inner surfaces of the insertion end 204b-1 and the locking end 204b-2, thereby achieving locking and releasing.

[0034] Furthermore, the outer surface of the spring block 204d is in rotational contact with the inner surface of the fixed post 204a, and the end face of the spring block 204d is in elastic contact with the inner surface of the fixed post 204a.

[0035] Preferably, the release assembly 205 includes a fixing plate 205a fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the spring block 204d, a spring 205b fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixing plate 205a, a sleeve 205c fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the fixing plate 205a, a pressure block 205d fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the sleeve 205c, and a pressure plate 205e fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the fixing plate 205a.

[0036] The outer surface of the pressure plate 205e is fixedly connected with an anti-slip pad, which can ensure a tight fit between the pressure plate 205e and the sealing plate 201, enhance the friction between the two, and prevent positional displacement caused by vibration or other external forces.

[0037] It should be noted that the other end of the spring 205b is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the sleeve 205c, the inner surface of the pressure block 205d is fixedly connected to the outer end face of the spring block 204d, and the outer surface of the pressure plate 205e is in contact with the outer surface of the sealing plate 201.

[0038] In this process, by pressing the pressure block 205d, pressure is applied to the spring 205b. The pressure block 205d drives the spring block 204d and the limiting block 204c to slide in from the insertion end 204b-1. By rotating the pressure block 205d, the limiting block 204c rotates to the locking end 204b-2, and the locking is completed by the force of the spring 205b.

[0039] In use, the sealing plate 201 is snapped onto the outer ring 101, so that the sealing plate 201 and the outer ring 101 are in contact, the slot 203 is in contact with the cage 104, and the limiting hole 202 is in contact with the fixing post 204a, thus sealing the bearing 100. The pressure block 205d is manually lifted, and the pressure block 205d drives the sleeve 205c, spring 205b, fixing plate 205a, spring block 204d, limiting block 204c and pressure plate 205e to move simultaneously. Then, the limiting block 204c is aligned with the mounting groove 204b opened in the fixing post 204a, and the limiting block 204c moves to the insertion end 204b-1. The pressure plate 205e is in contact with the sealing plate 201, and the pressure block 205e is in contact with the outer ring 101. When 5d is pressed down, the pressure block 205d drives the spring block 204d to move, and the spring block 204d drives the limit block 204c to move. At the same time, during the pressing process of the pressure block 205d, pressure is applied to the spring 205b, causing the spring 205b to stretch. Then, the pressure block 205d is manually rotated, and the pressure block 205d drives the spring block 204d to rotate. The spring block 204d drives the limit block 204c to rotate, causing the limit block 204c to move into the locking end 204b-2. When the pressure block 205d is released, the spring 205b is released and drives the fixing plate 205a to move. The fixing plate 205a drives the spring block 204d to move, so that the limit block 204c and the locking end 204b-2 are locked.

[0040] In summary, through the cooperation of the various components of the dustproof mechanism 200, not only is effective dust protection for the bearing 100 achieved, but also by embedding the spring 205b in a sealed environment, it avoids long-term direct exposure to air, effectively preventing the spring 205b from rusting and failing due to moisture in the air, improving the durability of the spring 205b and the reliability of the entire dustproof mechanism 200, and ensuring that the bearing 100 can operate stably in more severe environments.
