Noise calculation method of deep groove ball bearing caused by vibration of rolling elements considering raceway waviness

Raceway waviness error is the main reason to cause rolling elements to vibrate along axial direction and emit noise. In this paper, the mechanical analysis on deep groove ball bearing is carried out. With auto-correlation function, random surface waviness of both inner and outer raceways is simulated. A contact model of rolling elements and raceways considering surface waviness is established. Combining with the theory of acoustic equation, a calculation model is established for the noise caused by vibration of rolling elements and inner ring. The results show that with the decrease of machining accuracy, the noise of rolling elements increases due to axial vibration; with the increase of rotation speed, the noise also increases. Besides, the spectrum of radiation noise of inner raceway with different waviness amplitudes is given. The results indicate that the 3-D waviness on raceway surface has an influence on the vibration and the noise emitted by both rolling elements and inner ring, and provide guidance for sound control in deep groove rolling bearing.

Dynamic Modeling and Vibration Characteristics Analysis of Deep-Groove Ball Bearing, Considering Sliding Effect

To study the vibration characteristics of deep-groove ball bearing, considering the influence of sliding, the dynamic model of the DGB 6205 system is established in this paper. The DGB 6205 system model includes the movement of the bearing inner ring in the X and Y directions, the rotation of the cage, the rotation movement of each ball, the revolution movement of each ball and the movement along the radial direction of each ball. Based on the system model, the differential equations of motion of the system are established, and the correctness of the model is verified by experiment. The slip characteristics of the DGB 6205 system are studied by numerical simulation. At the same time, the influence of time-varying load on the vibration characteristics of the system is studied. Then, the sensitivity of system parameters is analyzed. The results show that the sliding speed between the ball and the inner raceway is greater than that between the ball and the outer raceway. The radial vibration response of DGB 6205 system under time-varying load is less than that under constant load. The increase of radial clearance will increase the vibration response of DGB 6205 system.

Impact-Rubbing Dynamic Behavior of Magnetic-Liquid Double Suspension Bearing under Different Protective Bearing Forms

The magnetic-liquid double suspension bearing (MLDSB) is a new type of suspension bearing, with electromagnetic suspension as the main part and hydrostatic supports as the auxiliary part. It can greatly improve the bearing capacity and stiffness of rotor-bearing systems and is suitable for a medium speed, heavy load, and frequent starting occasions. Compared with the active electromagnetic bearing system, the traditional protective bearing device is replaced by the hydrostatic system in MLDSB, and the impact-rubbing phenomenon can be restrained and buffered. Thus, the probability and degree of friction and wear between the rotor and the magnetic pole are reduced drastically when the electromagnetic system fails. In order to explore the difference in the dynamic behavior law of the impact-rubbing phenomenon between the traditional protection device and hydrostatic system, the dynamic equations of the rotor impact-rubbing in three kinds of protection devices (fixed ring/deep groove ball bearing/hydrostatic system) under electromagnetic failure mode are established, and the axial trajectory and motion law of the rotor are numerically simulated. Finally, the dynamic behavior characteristics of the rotor are compared and analyzed. The results show that: Among the three kinds of protection devices (fixed ring/deep groove ball bearing/hydrostatic system), the hydrostatic system has the least influence on bouncing time, impact-rubbing force, and impact-rubbing degree, and the maximum impact-rubbing force of MLDSB is greatly reduced. Therefore, the protective bear is not required to be installed in the MLDSB. This study provides the basis for the theory of the “gap impact-rubbing” of MLDSB under electromagnetic failure, and helps to identify electromagnetic faults.

An exploration of frictional and vibrational behaviors of textured deep groove ball bearing in the vicinity of requisite minimum load

In case of lightly loaded radial ball bearings, failure mechanisms other than fatigue such as smearing of raceways due to increased frictional torque and vibrations often prevail. Hence, attempts have been made herein for reducing the frictional torque and minimizing the vibrations of a radial deep groove ball bearing employing surface textures at the inner race. Nanosecond pulsed laser was used to create texture (involving micro-dimples having different dimple area density) on the inner race of test bearings. Using an in-house developed test rig, frictional torque and vibrational parameters were measured at different speeds and light loads (i.e. in vicinity of 0.01C, where C is dynamic load capacity of radial ball bearing). Significant reduction in frictional torque and overall vibrations were found in the presence of micro-dimples on inner race at light loads irrespective of operating speeds. Even without satisfying the minimum load needed criteria for the satisfactory operation, substantial reduction in smearing marks was found on the races of textured ball bearings in comparison to conventional cases.

It is the necessary to predict the endurance capability of the mechanical element with its increased application and complexity. The present research work estimates the stress variation and displacement characteristics using finite element analyses of Single Row SKF6205 Deep Groove Ball Bearing under radial and axial loadings. The vibration analyses are evaluated in three aspects; static, modal, and harmonic analysis. The simulations show the variation of stress levels of the bearing in different loads. These results are used to predict the fatigue life, wear rate, and productivity of the ball bearing at various stochastic conditions.
