This paper presents the dynamic differential equations of cylindrical roller bearing, considering the dynamic unbalance mass of roller and the contact between the roller end face and the inner ring rib. The influence of bearing working condition and structural parameters on the P V value of roller end face and the slip speed of roller working surface were analysed. The theoretical analysis and experimental results both show that the large amount of roller’s dynamic unbalance mass due to the difference in chamfering size on both sides of the roller and the deviation of the bearing axial clearance are the main causes of abnormal wear on the roller working surface and end face.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of roller dynamic unbalance on cage stress. Design/methodology/approach Considering the impact of roller dynamic unbalance, the dynamic analysis model of high-speed cylindrical roller bearing is established. And then the results of dynamic model are used as the boundary conditions for the finite element analysis model of roller and cage to obtain the cage stress. Findings Roller dynamic unbalance affects the contact status between roller and cage pocket and causes the overall increase in cage stress. The most significant impact on cage stress is roller dynamic unbalance in angular direction of roller axis, followed by radial and axial directions. Smaller radial clearance of bearing and a reasonable range of pocket clearance are beneficial to reduce the impact of roller dynamic unbalance on cage stress; the larger cage guide clearance is a disadvantage to decrease cage stress. The impact of roller dynamic unbalance on cage stress under high-speed condition is greater than that in low-speed conditions. Originality/value The research can provide some theoretical guidance for the design and manufacture of bearing in high-speed cylindrical roller bearing.

Purpose This study aims to uncover the influencing mechanism of the tilt angles of the cage pocket walls of the high-speed cylindrical roller bearing on the bearing skidding. Design/methodology/approach A novel cylindrical roller bearing with the beveled cage pockets was proposed. Using the Hertz contact theory and the elastohydrodynamic and hydrodynamic lubrication formulas, the contact models of the bearing were built. Using the multibody kinematics and the Newton–Euler dynamics theory, a dynamics model of the bearing was established. Using the Runge–Kutta integration method, the dynamics simulations and analysis of the bearing were performed. Findings The simulation results show that the effects of the tilt angles of the front and rear walls of the pocket on the bearing skidding are remarkable. Under a 5° tilt angle of the front wall of the pocket and a 10° tilt angle of the rear wall, the bearing skidding can be effectively decreased in the rotational speed range of 10,000-70,000 r/min. Originality/value In this paper, a novel cylindrical roller bearing with the beveled cage pockets was proposed; a dynamics model of the bearing was established; the influence mechanism of the tilt angles of the front and rear walls of the pocket on the bearing skidding was investigated, which can provide fundamental theory basis for optimizing the pocket.

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.
