7)Internal clearance (original clearance)


Bearing performance depends greatly upon internal clearance Radial internal clearance during operation; inappropriate clearance results in short rolling fatigue life and generation of heat, noise or vibration.
Radial/Axial clearance Bearing internal clearance is defined as the total distance either inner or outer ring can be moved when the other ring is fixed. If movement is in the radial direction,it is called radial internal clearance; if in the axial direction, axial internal clearance.

8)Preload
Generally, bearings are operated with a certain amount of proper internal clearance allowed. For some applications, however, bearings are mounted with axial load of such magnitude that the clearance will be negative. 1)To improve running accuracy by reducing run-out of shaft, as well as to heighten positioning accuracy in radial and axial directions. 2)To improve gear engagement accuracy by increasing bearing rigidity. 3)To reduce smearing by eliminating sliding in irregular rotation. 4)To minimize abnormal noise due to vibration or resonance.
Position preloading Constant pressure preloading

Method using matched pair bearing with standout adjusted for preloading.

Method using spacer with dimensions adjusted for preloading.

Method using nut or bolt capable of adjusting preload in axial direction. In this case, starting friction moment during adjustment should be measured so that proper preload will be applied.

Method using coil spring or diaphragm spring.

(11-2)Basic static load rating C0


Excessive static load even at very low rotation causes partial permanent deformation of the rolling element and raceway contacting surfaces. Therefore there should be no rotation in static load. The basic static load rating is the static load which responds to the calculated contact stress shown below. Self-aligning ball bearings : 4 600 Mpa Other ball bearings : 4 200 MPa Roller bearings : 4 000 MPa 0.02Co Practicable Dynamic Load 0.3Co

(for slipping prevention)

(for keeping oil film)

The total extent of contact stress-caused permanent deformation on surfaces of rolling elements and raceway will be approximately 0.0001 times greater than the rolling element diameter.
26

(11-3)Limiting speed
The limiting speed is the highest speed at which a bearing can continuously operate without generating such critical heat. Oil lubrication can rotate higher speed than grease lubrication. High precision bearing can rotate higher speed than standard design. These allowable rubbing speeds differ depending on seal rubber materials.
27

12.Handling 12.Handling of of bearings bearings


(a)Bearing fits
The purpose of fits is to securely fix the inner or outer ring to the shaft or housing, to preclude detrimental circumferential sliding on the fitting surface. Types of fit 1)Interference fit Impossible to mount by no clearance, so need to load force. 2)Transition fit Slightly loose slightly tight 3)Clearance fit Theres gap. Easy to mount. Selection of fit Generally, make rotating ring tight fit, make stationary ring loose fit. Please consult with Engineering Dept. in case of the followings. 1)High load 2)Vibration load exists 3)Do oscillating motion 4)High temperature 5)Material of shaft or housing is light alloy(aluminum,etc.) 6)Use long shaft
28

(b)Bearing lubrication
Lubrication is one of the most important factors determining bearing performance. 1)Role of lubrication To lubricate each part of the bearing, and to reduce friction and wear. To cover rolling contact surface with the proper oil film in order to prolong bearing fatigue life. 2)Lubrication types Grease lubrication Generally grease is filled in advance into shielded/sealed bearing. Simple handling Proper grease selection to application is necessary. Oil lubrication Usable even at high rotating speed and somewhat high temperature, and effective in reducing bearing vibration and noise. Proper selection of oil lubrication method and oil type is necessary. The best lubricant for bearing life. Solid lubrication Use in special application (vacuum, clean environment) Use in low speed and light load
29

(c)Handling of bearings
1)General instructions a)Bearings are more precisely made than other machine parts. Avoid dirty,dusty,strong impact. b)Handle using the proper tools. c)Keep bearings well protected from rust, humidity and sweat. 2)Storage If bearings are to be stored for a long time, be stored on shelves set higher than 30cm from the floor at a humidity less than 65% and at a temperature around 20 degrees. 3)Preparation prior the mounting Since the anticorrosion oil covering bearing is a highly capable lubricant, the oil should not be cleaned off if the bearings are used for normal operation.
30

(d)Mounting and dismounting method


Press fit of bearings with cylindrical bore bearings Mounting methods (a)Using press fit (the most widely used method) Descriptions As shown in the Fig., a bearing should be mounted slowly with care, by using a fixture to apply force evenly to the bearing. When mounting the inner ring, apply pressure to the inner ring only. Similarly, in mounting the outer ring, press only the outer ring.

(b)Using bolts and nuts (screw hole should be provided at the shaft end)

(Inner ring press fit) (Outer ring press fit) (Inner ring press fit) If interference is required on both the inner and outer ring of non-separable bearings, use two kinds of fixtures as shown in the Fig. and apply force carefully, as rolling elements are easily damaged. (Simultaneous press fit of inner ring and outer ring) 31

Shrink fit of cylindrical bore bearings Shrink fit (a)Heating in an oil bath Descriptions This method, which expands bearings by heating them in oil, has the advantage of not applying too much force to bearings and taking only a short time. Notes Oil temperature should not be higher than 100 deg. C, because bearings heated at higher than 120 deg. C lose hardness. Heating temperature can be determined from the bore diameter of a bearing and the interference. (b)Induction heater Use nets or a lifting device to prevent the bearing from resting directly on the bottom of the oil container. Since bearings shrink in the radial direction as well as the axial direction while cooling down, fix the inner ring and shaft shoulder tightly with the shaft nut before shrinking, so that no space is left between them. Shrink fit proves to be clean and effective since, by induction heating, the ring can be provided with even heat in a short time using neither fire nor oil. (When electricity is being conducted, the bearing itself generates heat by its electrical resistance, aided by the built-in exciting coil.) 32

Dismounting of cylindrical bore bearings Inner ring dismounting methods (a) Dismounting by use of a press (b) Dismounting by use of oil pressure

(c) Dismounting by use of special tools

(d) Dismounting by use of special tools

(e) Dismounting using induction heater

Descriptions Non-separable bearings should be treated carefully during dismounting so as to minimize external force, which affects their rolling elements. The easiest way to remove bearings is by using a press as shown in Fig.(a). It is recommended that the fixture be prepared so that the inner ring can receive the removal force. 33
