Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing technology, specifically to a four-row cylindrical roller bearing used in metallurgical hot rolling mills. Background Technology
[0002] The four-row cylindrical roller bearings used in metallurgical hot rolling mills operate in harsh environments. During the rolling process of square billets and slabs, a large amount of oxide scale and other impurities are generated under the strong scouring of water flow. Four-row cylindrical roller bearings are mostly used in the radial support position of the support rollers. Generally, the equipment is equipped with a sealing device to ensure the normal operation of the bearing. However, this sealing device has a complex structure and is difficult to maintain. Furthermore, damage to the sealing structure can directly lead to the entry of oxide scale and other impurities into the bearing, causing bearing damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the sealing of the four-row cylindrical roller bearings used in metallurgical hot rolling mills, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a four-row cylindrical roller bearing with an added sealing structure on the side. Based on the original sealing structure, the bearing is given double protection, which facilitates maintenance, prevents impurities from entering the bearing and affecting lubrication, and extends the service life of the bearing.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a four-row cylindrical roller bearing, comprising: two double-raceway outer rings, a straight raceway inner ring without flanges, two sets of combined side sealing mechanisms, four sets of cage assemblies, and four rows of cylindrical rollers evenly arranged in the four sets of cage assemblies. The two sets of combined side sealing mechanisms are located at the positions from the outer diameter of the inner ring to the end face of the outer ring at both ends of the bearing. Flanges are formed at the center of each of the two double-raceway outer rings for adjacent rows of cylindrical rollers. A spacer ring is provided in the middle between the two double-raceway outer rings to form flanges for the two rows of cylindrical rollers in the middle of the bearing. The four rows of cylindrical rollers are rolled between the straight raceway of the inner ring and the single raceways of each of the two double-raceway outer rings. Furthermore, each set of combined side sealing mechanisms includes: an outer seal and an inner metal retaining ring. The outer seal is composed of a narrow-width retaining ring and a sealing lip. An axial boss is formed at one end of the outer diameter of the narrow-width retaining ring, and the inner diameter of the narrow-width retaining ring is wrapped around the sealing lip. The metal retaining ring is located between the narrow-width retaining ring and the outer end face of the outer ring. Based on the above solution, the narrow-width retaining ring and the sealing lip constitute the adhesive retaining ring, and the two are bonded together; the narrow-width retaining ring is made of the same material as the inner metal retaining ring; Furthermore, the sealing lip has a double-lobed irregular shape, including a first long lip and a second short lip; the first long lip of the sealing lip makes a small interference contact with the inner ring of the bearing, which can effectively prevent external impurities from entering the bearing.
[0005] Furthermore, the small interference is designed with an interference amount of 0.8mm.
[0006] Furthermore, the inner metal retaining ring is designed with a stop that mates with the axial boss of the narrow-width retaining ring, and the narrow-width retaining ring and the metal retaining ring are mated together by the axial boss and the stop. Furthermore, the outer seal and inner metal retaining ring at each end of the bearing are both located on the outer diameter of the inner ring, and the outer side of the outer seal does not extend beyond the end face of the inner ring. Furthermore, the outer diameter of the narrow-width outer sealing ring is flush with the outer diameter of the inner metal sealing ring, and together they are flush with the outer diameter of the outer ring.
[0007] Furthermore, the inner side of the inner metal retaining ring contacts the end face of the outer ring and the end face of the cylindrical roller portion.
[0008] Furthermore, each cage assembly has the same structure and adopts a split design; each cage assembly includes two parts: a cage base and a cage cover, which are connected by thermal riveting through a column and a cylindrical roller.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: The bearing is equipped with a combined side sealing mechanism at both ends of the entire four-row cylindrical roller bearing. The combined side sealing mechanism forms a double seal with an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer adopts a narrow-width retaining ring with rubber coating structure, which is simple in structure, occupies a small volume, and achieves a sealing effect without affecting the original bearing structure and load.

[0013] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0014] like Figure 1 , 2 The illustrated four-row cylindrical roller bearing includes: two double-raceway outer rings 1, one straight-raceway inner ring 2 without flanges, two sets of combined side seal mechanisms, four sets of cage assemblies, and four rows of cylindrical rollers 3 evenly arranged in the four sets of cage assemblies. The two sets of combined side seal mechanisms are located at the ends of the bearing from the outer diameter of the inner ring 2 to the end face of the outer ring 1. Flanges are formed at the center of each of the two double-raceway outer rings 1 for adjacent rows of cylindrical rollers 3. A spacer ring 4 is provided between the two double-raceway outer rings 1 to form flanges for the two rows of cylindrical rollers 3 in the middle of the bearing. The four rows of cylindrical rollers 3 are rolled between the straight raceway of the inner ring 2 and the single raceway of each of the two double-raceway outer rings 1. Furthermore, each set of combined side sealing mechanisms includes: an outer seal and an inner metal retaining ring 7. The outer seal is composed of a narrow-width retaining ring 5 and a sealing lip 6. An axial boss 5.1 is formed at one end of the outer diameter of the narrow-width retaining ring 5, and the inner diameter of the narrow-width retaining ring 5 is wrapped around the sealing lip 6. The metal retaining ring 7 is located between the narrow-width retaining ring 5 and the outer end face of the outer ring 1. Based on the above scheme, the narrow-width retaining ring 5 and the sealing lip 6 constitute an adhesive retaining ring, and the two are bonded together. Furthermore, the sealing lip 6 has a double-lobed irregular shape, including a first long lip 6.1 and a second short lip 6.1; the sealing lip 6 makes a small interference contact with the bearing inner ring 2 with its first long lip 6.1 with a small interference of 0.8mm, which can effectively prevent external impurities from entering the bearing.
[0015] Furthermore, the inner metal retaining ring 7 is designed with a stop 7.1 that mates with the axial boss 5.1 of the narrow-width retaining ring 5. The narrow-width retaining ring 5 and the metal retaining ring 7 are engaged together by the axial boss 5.1 and the stop 7.1. Furthermore, the outer seal and inner metal retaining ring at each end of the bearing are both located on the outer diameter of the inner ring 2, and the outer side of the outer seal does not exceed the inner ring end face 2.1. In the above scheme, the design principle of outer seal + inner seal is to design the width of the inner metal retaining ring accordingly without affecting the dimensions of the main load-bearing parts such as the length and diameter of the roller, the thickness of the inner and outer rings, and ensuring that it does not protrude from the bearing end face and does not interfere with the cage, and to limit the width of the narrow retaining ring of the outer seal.
[0016] Specifically, the width of the narrow-width retaining ring 5 is set to 0.01mm * the total width of the four rows of cylindrical bearings; the width of the metal retaining ring 7 is set to 0.02mm * the total width of the four rows of cylindrical bearings.
[0017] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the narrow-width outer sealing ring (5.2mm) is flush with the outer diameter of the inner metal sealing ring (7.2mm) and together they are flush with the outer diameter of the outer ring (1.1mm).
[0018] Furthermore, the inner metal retaining ring 7 contacts the end face of the outer ring 1 and part of the end face of the cylindrical roller 3, thereby forming a retaining edge of the cylindrical roller 3.
[0019] The seal structure of this application has an outer sealing ring 5 that acts as the skeleton of a conventional seal, making it difficult to fall off. A metal retaining ring is installed on its inner side to ensure that the seal does not protrude from the end face, thus achieving the sealing effect.
[0020] Each cage assembly has the same structure and adopts a split design. Each cage assembly includes two parts: a cage seat 8 and a cage cover 9. The cage seat 8 and the cage cover 9 are connected by thermal riveting through the cylindrical roller 3 via the support column 10.
