During the production of spherical bearings, the lower support plate is relatively thick, and its processing time is usually long, thus affecting the production efficiency of the spherical bearings. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a spherical bearing that is easy to assemble to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a spherical support that is easy to assemble, so as to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A spherical support that is easy to assemble includes an upper support plate, a lower support plate at the bottom of the upper support plate, a base plate, a support plate at the top of the base plate, an upper insertion hole on the bottom outer wall of the support plate, a positioning tenon inserted into the upper insertion hole, a lower insertion hole on the top outer wall of the base plate, the positioning tenon inserted into the lower insertion hole, a vent groove on one side of the outer wall of the positioning tenon, and tapered surfaces at both ends of the positioning tenon.

[0007] Furthermore, a spherical crown plate is provided between the support plate and the upper support plate. The bottom of the spherical crown plate is arc-shaped. The top outer wall of the support plate is adapted to the spherical crown plate. A limiting ring is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the upper support plate. The limiting ring is located outside the support plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a friction plate is fixed to the top outer wall of the crown plate, and a stainless steel plate is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the upper support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the stainless steel plate has evenly distributed through holes on its top outer wall, the spherical crown plate has an installation groove on its top outer wall, a sealing ring is fixed inside the installation groove, and a raised strip is integrally formed on the top outer wall of the sealing ring.

[0010] Furthermore, sleeves are fixed at the four bottom corners of the lower support plate, and anchor bolts are fixed inside the sleeves.

[0011] Furthermore, a step is provided in the middle of the positioning tenon, and the step is located at the top of the base plate.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the spherical bearing provided by this utility model, which is easy to assemble, has the following advantages: By dividing the lower support plate into a base plate and a support plate, and limiting the base plate and support plate by a positioning tenon, the base plate and support plate can be processed simultaneously during the processing of the lower support plate, shortening the processing time and thus improving the efficiency of the production of the lower support plate of the spherical bearing. At the same time, the large components are disassembled into smaller parts, which also facilitates the assembly of the bearing. By opening a ventilation groove on the outer wall of the positioning tenon, when the positioning tenon is inserted into the lower insertion hole and the upper insertion hole, the lower insertion...

[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, an upper support plate 1 is included, and a lower support plate 2 is provided at the bottom of the upper support plate 1. The lower support plate 2 includes a base plate 5, and a support plate 4 is provided at the top of the base plate 5. The upper surface of the support plate 4 has a concave arc-shaped surface. An upper insertion hole 8 is opened on the bottom outer wall of the support plate 4, and a positioning tenon 10 is inserted into the upper insertion hole 8. A lower insertion hole 9 is provided on the top outer wall of the base plate 5, and the positioning tenon 10 is inserted into the lower insertion hole 9.

Through the protrusion 15 on the sealing ring, the sealing effect between the spherical crown plate 20 and the upper support plate 1 is improved, preventing dust from entering the friction between the friction plate 13 and the stainless steel plate 14 and affecting the friction effect. Sleeves 6 are fixed at the bottom four corners of the lower support plate 2. Anchor bolts 7 are fixed inside the sleeves 6. Anchor bolts 7 are also fixed at the top four corners of the upper support plate 1. The support is fixed to the upper and lower parts of the bridge through the anchor bolts 7.

[0025] Working principle: When using the support plate 4 and the base plate 5, first insert the positioning tenon 10 into the lower insertion hole 9 of the base plate 5, and make the step 19 close to the base plate 5.
