Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to mechanical maintenance tool field, concretely is a kind of crankshaft flange center hole needle roller bearing dismounting device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The needle roller bearing in the center hole of the crankshaft flange of the engine serves as a guide bearing and plays a key role in supporting the front end of the input shaft of the transmission. This bearing replaces sliding friction with low-friction rolling contact, which not only ensures high-precision coaxiality of the crankshaft and the center line of the input shaft of the transmission, but also significantly reduces wear, noise and vibration during operation, which is of great significance to improving power transmission efficiency, prolonging the service life of key components and improving the comfort performance of the vehicle. During engine maintenance and analysis, the dismounting of the needle roller bearing is a common and important task. However, the existing dismounting aids have many technical defects. The traditional drawbar tool is made of a single material and uses a direct pulling method, which is prone to deformation or breakage of the drawbar due to material fatigue after long-term high-frequency use. Alternatively, the operator may over-expand the head of the drawbar, causing stress concentration and tool failure. In addition, to facilitate operation, existing drawbar devices are generally provided with a long shaft, but the long shaft is prone to elastic deformation and radial oscillation during pulling, causing the grab head to disengage from the bearing end face, which not only causes dismounting failure, but also may scratch the surface of the crankshaft or cause the needle roller of the bearing to scatter, posing a safety hazard.
