Normally cylindrical roller bearings are employed to transmit purely radial loads. However, depending upon the configuration of lips or flanges on the rings, it is sometimes possible to carry an axial load. In certain applications, an axial load capability is essential. A significant feature in determining the performance of a cylindrical roller bearing under axial loading is the lubrication conditions existing between the lips and rolling elements. The paper describes a study of such conditions. The long-term aim of the work is to provide a basis for the design of cylindrical roller bearings to carry axial loads.

Abstract Planetary gearboxes are becoming more popular due to their high-power density and potentially high efficiency. When the planet bearings are internally mounted, the body of the planet gear has to be hollow. The demand for large outer diameters due to high-load requirements might result in a small planet rim thickness. Depending on the rim thickness, its rigidity may become very low. Due to the low stiffness and the special load conditions caused by the double meshing, the deformation of the planet and its bearings are unique. In this paper, the influence of rim thickness on bearing load and lifetime is examined. The analysis is performed with a finite element method (FEM) model of a planet rim with a built-in cylindrical roller bearing. With the resulting planet deformation from the FEM calculation, the load distribution on the rolling elements in the bearing and the bearing lifetime according to ISO/TS 16281:2008 has been evaluated.

As large-scale rotating machines develop toward high rotating speed and high power–weight ratio, skidding damage has become one of the major initial failure modes of cylindrical roller bearings. Therefore, understanding the skidding damage law is an effective way to ensure the safety of machines supported by cylindrical roller bearings. To realize the skidding damage, a high-speed rolling bearing test rig that can simulate the actual operating conditions of aviation bearings was used in this paper, and the skidding damage dynamic behaviors of cylindrical roller bearings were investigated. In addition, to ensure the accuracy of the obtained skidding damage mechanism, the cylindrical roller bearing was carefully inspected by microscopic analysis when the skidding damage occurred. Out results show that instantaneous increases in friction torque, vibration acceleration, and temperature are clearly observed when the skidding damage occurs in the cylindrical roller bearing. Furthermore, under the conditions of inadequate lubrication and light load, the critical speed of skidding damage is rather low. The major wear mechanisms of skidding damage include oxidation wear, abrasive wear, and delamination wear. The white layers are found locally in the inner ring and rollers under the actions of friction heat and shear force.

Prototype Design

Bearings are manufactured in a wide variety of types and sizes especially with a single row of rollers, two rows of rollers or more, with cages or roller beside roller. Researches carried out by authors in this paper have followed a comparative analysis between a standard cylindrical roller bearings design and a prototype design using finite element method software's like ANSYS and MESYS. ANSYS is commonly used and enjoyed by an extended use in the structural areas, for analysis. ANSYS it consists of three main phases: Pre-processing, conducting or importing of the solid model system that are to be analyzed, solid meshing design in finite elements, implementation of conditions and loads at the limit, Processing, numeric solving of the characteristic equations behavior of the system and getting the solution, Post-processing, viewing the results in order to analyses system reaction and identification of areas with critical applications. The purpose of the study was to collect data's using two different software's and after to compare them with mathematical results. Using the ANSYS in this purpose it was able to analyses the design of the structure of the cylindrical roller bearing in detail.

The load applied by each rolling element on a bearing raceway controls friction, wear and service life. It is possible to infer bearing load from load cells or strain gauges on the shaft or bearing housing. However, this is not always simply and uniquely related to the real load transmitted by rolling elements directly to the raceway. Firstly, the load sharing between rolling elements in the raceway is statically indeterminate, and secondly, in a machine with non-steady loading, the load path is complex and highly transient being subject to the dynamic behaviour of the transmission system. This study describes a method to measure the load transmitted directly by a rolling element to the raceway by using the time of flight (ToF) of a reflected ultrasonic pulse. A piezoelectric sensor was permanently bonded onto the bore surface of the inner raceway of a cylindrical roller bearing. The ToF of an ultrasonic pulse from the sensor to the roller–raceway contact was measured. This ToF depends on the speed of the wave and the thickness of the raceway. The speed of an ultrasonic wave changes with the state of the stress, known as the acoustoelastic effect. The thickness of the material varies when deflection occurs as the contacting surfaces are subjected to load. In addition, the contact stiffness changes the phase of the reflected signal and in simple peak-to-peak measurement, this appears as a change in the ToF. In this work, the Hilbert transform was used to remove this contact dependent phase shift. Experiments have been performed on both a model line contact and a single row cylindrical roller bearing from the planet gear of a wind turbine epicyclic gearbox. The change in ToF under different bearing loads was recorded and used to determine the deflection of the raceway. This was then related to the bearing load using a simple elastic contact model. Measured load from the ultrasonic reflection was compared with the applied bearing load with good agreement. The technique shows promise as an effective method for load monitoring in real-world bearing applications.

The principal objective of this paper is to ascertain and quantify the cyclic movement of the centre of a shaft in a geometrically perfect, lubricated, cylindrical roller bearing exhibiting initial clearance and subjected to a light and steady load. The movement may be important in relation to the accuracy of location of shafts in roller bearings, and it is shown that a detailed consideration of the rolling element assembly predicts some interesting effects. The study also covers more conventional features of bearing performance such as lubricant film thickness and coefficient of friction, and shows the effect of squeeze to be negligible under steady bearing loads.

Abstract The paper investigates the influence of the process of running-in the ends of rollers and sides of cylindrical roller bearings on the conditions of hydrodynamic contact of these parts: the formation of an oil film and friction. For this purpose, the results of finite element modeling of the stress-strain state of the bearing parts in contact: the inner ring, the side flange and a fragment of the axle of the wheelset, and the multi-mass simulation of the dynamics of the bearing operation are used. The influence of the yaw angle of the roller on the size and shape of the contact area on the side is investigated. The dependences for calculating the thickness of the oil film in the contact between the ends of the rollers and the flanges of the bearing rings are being refined, which now make it possible to take into account the misaligned position of these parts during their force interaction. The results are illustrated using the example of a roller bearing of standard size 232926.
