Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bearing cages, specifically a cylindrical roller bearing cage for adjusting the movement of rollers. Background Technology
[0002] As a core component of mechanical transmission systems, cylindrical roller bearings directly affect the load-bearing capacity, speed limits, and service life of equipment. The cage, as a key component inside the bearing, mainly undertakes the functions of isolating the rollers, guiding movement, reducing friction, and maintaining the stability of the roller space.
[0003] However, under high-speed, heavy-load, or variable-load conditions, traditional cage designs face significant challenges. First, there is the issue of motion stability, as the rollers are prone to skew or oscillation during operation, leading to localized stress concentration, increased wear, and the induction of vibration and noise. Second, there is the risk of structural strength and deformation, as the cage is prone to elliptical deformation or fatigue fracture under load fluctuations. Third, there is the problem of low lubrication efficiency, as the enclosed roller cavity hinders the circulation of lubricating oil, and the roller end faces experience abnormal wear due to insufficient boundary lubrication. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cylindrical roller bearing cage for adjusting roller movement, which guides roller movement and improves lubrication through a partition assembly.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a cylindrical roller bearing cage for adjusting roller movement, comprising a first annular base and a second annular base, the first annular base and the second annular base being coaxially arranged, and a plurality of partition assemblies evenly arranged in a circle being provided between the first annular base and the second annular base; a roller receiving space is formed between two adjacent partition assemblies.
[0006] The partition assembly includes a limiting beam and a first partition and a second partition fixed on the limiting beam. The limiting beam extends axially and is fixedly connected to the first annular base and the second annular base.
[0007] The design of the first annular base and the second annular base + partition assembly enables precise control of the roller motion trajectory, reduces skew friction, and thus achieves the purpose of adjusting the roller motion.
[0008] In a further technical solution, a groove is provided on the side of the second annular base near the roller receiving space.
[0009] The slot structure enhances the assembly stability of the cage and the inner and outer rings of the bearing, prevents axial movement, and can form an oil reservoir by injecting grease, thereby enhancing the boundary lubrication effect and lubricating the rollers.
[0010] In a further technical solution, the two sides of the first and second partitions that are far apart from each other are curved surfaces.
[0011] The first and second partitions are designed with arc-shaped concave surfaces to fit the roller profile, allowing the roller to rotate within the roller housing space, ensuring uniform stress distribution, reducing local contact stress peaks, and guaranteeing smooth roller rolling. Since the first and second partitions are arc-shaped plates, they undergo elastic deformation during roller installation, facilitating roller assembly.
[0012] A further technical solution is that the axial cross-section of the first annular base is arc-shaped, specifically: it transitions from a state parallel to the axis of the first annular base near the limiting beam, to a state perpendicular to the axis of the first annular base away from the limiting beam, and then bends outward.
[0013] The first annular base with outward-expanding curved structure guides the grease to the rollers, improving heat dissipation and lubrication.
[0014] A further technical solution is that the axial cross-section of the second annular base is arc-shaped, specifically: it transitions from being parallel to the axial direction near the limiting beam to bending inwards towards the side away from the limiting beam and perpendicular to the axial direction.
[0015] Guiding the lubricating oil path: The first annular base is arc-shaped to guide the lubricating oil axially into the raceway, and the second annular base is arc-shaped to cooperate with the groove so that the lubricating oil can circulate within the groove; the arc surface reduces the accumulation of impurities and prevents impurities from being retained in the raceway; the second annular base facilitates the machining of the groove, enhances the constraint on the axial displacement of the roller, reduces the elliptical deformation of the cage, and enhances the structural strength.
[0016] In a further technical solution, the outer end face of the first annular substrate is parallel to its axial direction, and the inner end face of the first annular substrate is perpendicular to its axial direction.
[0017] The inner and outer rings of the first annular matrix are differentiated to enhance the structure's resistance to deformation.
[0018] In a further technical solution, the outer ring side of the second annular substrate is perpendicular to its axial direction, and the inner ring end face of the second annular substrate is parallel to its axial direction.
[0019] The inner and outer rings of the second annular base are differentiated to enhance the structure's resistance to deformation and to limit the rollers in the axial direction; the inner ring end face of the first annular base is perpendicular to its axial direction, and the outer ring end face of the second annular base is perpendicular to its axial direction, which facilitates the processing of the limiting beam and reduces the difficulty of installation and alignment; it also facilitates the installation of the rollers, reserves installation space for bearing seals or shoulders, and avoids the risk of interference.
[0020] In a further technical solution, the diameter of the first annular substrate is larger than the diameter of the second annular substrate.
[0021] In a further technical solution, the limiting beam is parallel to the axial direction of the first annular base and the second annular base, and one end of the limiting beam is fixed to the inner side of the first annular base, while the other end of the limiting beam is fixed to the outer side of the second annular base.
[0022] The limiting beam is fixed at both ends on opposite sides, connecting the inner ring of the first annular base and the outer ring of the second annular base to form a support structure that resists the torque generated by the rollers.
[0023] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the present invention significantly improves the roller motion control accuracy through the coordinated design of the first annular base, the second annular base and the partition assembly; the roller covering cavity formed by the first partition, the second partition and the limiting beam effectively suppresses roller skew, reduces sliding friction and improves motion stability.
[0024] The arc-shaped design of the slot and the second annular base forms a lubricating oil guiding channel, enhancing the lubrication effect;
[0025] The first and second annular bases are arc-shaped, and the limiting beam connects the inner ring of the first annular base and the outer ring of the second annular base to form a support structure, which resists the torque generated by the rollers, improves the impact resistance, and extends the service life.

[0039] like Figures 1-6As shown, a cylindrical roller bearing cage for adjusting roller motion includes a first annular base 1 and a second annular base 2. The first annular base 1 and the second annular base 2 are coaxially arranged, and a plurality of partition assemblies are arranged evenly in a circle between the first annular base 1 and the second annular base 2; a roller receiving space 4 is formed between two adjacent partition assemblies.
[0040] The partition assembly includes a limiting beam 3 and a first partition 31 and a second partition 32 fixed on the limiting beam 3. The limiting beam 3 extends axially and is fixedly connected to the first annular base 1 and the second annular base 2.
[0041] In one embodiment, a groove 21 is provided on the side of the second annular base 2 near the roller receiving space 4.
[0042] In one embodiment, the two sides of the first partition 31 and the second partition 32 that are far apart from each other are arc-shaped surfaces.
[0043] In one embodiment, both the first partition 31 and the second partition 32 are arc-shaped, and the sides of the first partition 31 and the second partition 32 that are far apart from each other are arc-shaped concave surfaces. The first partition 31 and the second partition 32 on the adjacent limiting beam 3 form the roller receiving space 4, and the second partition 32 and the first partition 31 on the adjacent limiting beam 3 form the roller receiving space 4.
[0044] The concave curvature matches the roller profile, allowing the roller to rotate within the roller receiving space 4. Since the first partition 31 and the second partition 32 are arc-shaped plates, when the roller is installed into the roller receiving space 4, the first partition 31 and the second partition 32 will undergo elastic deformation, which facilitates the assembly of the roller.
[0045] In one embodiment, the axial cross-section of the first annular base 1 is arc-shaped, specifically: it transitions from a position parallel to the axis of the first annular base 1 near the limiting beam 3, to a position perpendicular to the axis of the first annular base 1 away from the limiting beam 3, and then curves outwards. Figure 6 As shown.
[0046] In one embodiment, the axial cross-section of the second annular base 2 is arc-shaped, specifically: it transitions from a state parallel to the axial direction of the second annular base 2 near the limiting beam 3 to a state perpendicular to the axial direction of the second annular base 2 away from the limiting beam 3, bending inwards. Figure 6 As shown.
[0047] Guiding the lubricating oil path: The first annular base 1 is arc-shaped to guide the lubricating oil axially into the raceway. The second annular base 2 is arc-shaped and works with the groove 21 to allow the lubricating oil to circulate within the annular groove 21. The arc-shaped surface reduces the accumulation of impurities and prevents impurities from being retained in the raceway. The second annular base 2 facilitates the machining of the groove 21, enhances the constraint on the axial displacement of the roller, reduces the elliptical deformation of the cage, and enhances the structural strength.
[0048] In one embodiment, the outer edge of the limiting beam 3 away from the axis is provided with a chamfered structure 33.
[0049] In one embodiment, the outer end face of the first annular base 1 is parallel to its axial direction, and the inner end face of the first annular base 1 is perpendicular to its axial direction.
[0050] In one embodiment, the outer end face of the second annular base 2 is perpendicular to its axial direction, and the inner end face of the second annular base 2 is parallel to its axial direction.
[0051] In one embodiment, the diameter of the first annular substrate 1 is larger than the diameter of the second annular substrate 2.
[0052] The inner ring end face of the first annular base 1 is perpendicular to its axial direction, and the outer ring end face of the second annular base 2 is perpendicular to its axial direction. This facilitates the processing of the limiting beam 3 and reduces the difficulty of installation and alignment. It also facilitates the installation of rollers, provides installation space for bearing seals or shoulders, and avoids the risk of interference.
[0053] In this embodiment, the limiting beam 3, the first annular base 1, and the second annular base 2 can be welded together, or they can be integrally cast and then precision machined.
[0054] In one embodiment, the limiting beam 3 is parallel to the axial direction of the first annular base 1 and the second annular base 2, and one end of the limiting beam 3 is fixed to the inner side of the first annular base 1, and the other end of the limiting beam 3 is fixed to the outer side of the second annular base 2.
[0055] The limiting beam 3 is fixed at both ends on opposite sides, connecting the inner ring of the first annular base 1 and the outer ring of the second annular base 2 to form a support structure that resists the torque generated by the rollers and facilitates roller installation.
