The basic principle and working principle of tapered roller bearings

Tapered Roller Bearing


Tapered roller bearings are a common type of rolling bearings with the following basic principles and working principles:

 

Basic Principle

The basic principle of tapered roller bearings is to utilize the rolling of tapered rollers between the inner and outer rings to support the load on the bearing. It allows the bearing to carry high loads in the radial and axial directions and to operate at different angles, and is therefore suitable for carrying complex load situations that act on both the shaft and the shelling at the same time.

 

Working Principle

Tapered roller bearings consist of inner ring, outer ring, rollers and cage. The working principle is as follows:

Inner Ring: The inner ring is the internal ring of the bearing, usually mounted on a rotating shaft.

Outer Ring: The outer ring is the outer ring of the bearing, usually mounted in the housing or shell.

Rollers: Rollers are conical rolling elements that are located between the inner and outer rings and are responsible for bearing and transmitting loads.

Cage: The cage is used to maintain the spacing of the rollers, ensuring that they are evenly distributed between the inner and outer rings.

 

The working principles of Tapered roller bearings that when a radial or axial load is applied to the shaft, the rollers will roll between the inner and outer rings. Due to the conical shape of the rollers, their contact points change as they roll, allowing the bearing to operate at different angles. This allows the bearings to withstand complex loads, including radial and axial forces, as well as moment-directional forces.

 

In Summary, the basic principle of tapered roller bearings is to reduce friction by rolling the rollers and support the load on the rotating shaft so that the mechanical system can run smoothly.
