Description

本発明は、一対の樹脂部材相互をガタつきがなく、しかも、より強固に連結する連結構造及び、該連結構造を用いた転がり軸受用樹脂製保持器、及び該保持器を使用した転がり軸受に関する。   The present invention relates to a connection structure for connecting a pair of resin members without backlash and more firmly, a resin cage for a rolling bearing using the connection structure, and a rolling bearing using the cage. .

転がり軸受の許容回転数を高めるためには、内外輪間に配置される複数個の転動体相互の配列ピッチを保持する保持器が遠心力によって変形することがないように、左右対称の保持器を用いる必要がある。   In order to increase the permissible rotational speed of the rolling bearing, a symmetric cage is used so that the cage that holds the arrangement pitch between the plurality of rolling elements arranged between the inner and outer rings is not deformed by centrifugal force. Must be used.

従来、このような左右対称の保持器として、下記特許文献１に開示されているように、対向配置される一対の樹脂製の環状体から構成され、各環状体は、円周方向の複数箇所に転動体を転動自在に収容する半球状のポケットが設けられ、これらの一対の環状体を連結することで、転がり軸受内の複数個の転動体を周方向に所定の離間間隔に保持する構造のものが提案されている。   Conventionally, as such a symmetric cage, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 below, it is composed of a pair of resin-made annular bodies arranged to face each other, and each annular body has a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction. Is provided with a hemispherical pocket for accommodating the rolling elements in a freely rolling manner, and a plurality of rolling elements in the rolling bearing are held at a predetermined spacing in the circumferential direction by connecting the pair of annular bodies. Structures have been proposed.

そして、保持器を構成する一対の樹脂製の環状体相互の連結構造としては、一方の環状体の連結面に突設された柱部を、他方の環状体の連結面に形成された連結用穴部に挿入した後、連結用穴部の外側に突出した柱部の頭部を加締めることにより連結する構造、及び、一方の環状体の連結面に突設された凸部を他方の環状体の連結面に形成された凹部に嵌合させた後、これらの凸部と凹部を溶着することにより連結する構造が提案されている。   And as a connection structure of a pair of resin-made annular bodies constituting the cage, the column portion protruding from the coupling surface of one annular body is connected to the coupling surface of the other annular body. After inserting into the hole part, the structure of connecting by crimping the head part of the pillar part protruding outside the connecting hole part, and the convex part protruding from the connection surface of one annular body is the other annular shape A structure has been proposed in which the protrusions and the recesses are welded together after being fitted into the recesses formed on the connecting surface of the body.

特開２００６−２５８１７６号公報JP 2006-258176 A

ところが、一方の環状体に突設された柱部を他方の環状体の連結用穴部に挿通させて、柱部の頭部を加締める連結構造の場合は、加締めにより径方向に膨出した柱部の頭部が他方の環状体を押えるため、柱部の軸方向に沿ったガタつきをなくした強固な連結が行える。しかし、その一方、寸法公差等により柱部の外径と連結用穴部の内周との間に隙間がある場合には、一対の環状体間において周方向のガタつきを防止することができず、例えば軸受が高速回転で使用されたときに、周方向のガタつきによる異音の発生という問題が発生する虞があった。   However, in the case of a connecting structure in which the column portion protruding from one annular body is inserted into the connecting hole portion of the other annular body and the head portion of the column portion is caulked, it bulges in the radial direction by caulking. Since the head portion of the pillar portion presses the other annular body, it is possible to perform a strong connection that eliminates rattling along the axial direction of the pillar portion. However, on the other hand, if there is a gap between the outer diameter of the column and the inner periphery of the connecting hole due to dimensional tolerances, circumferential play between the pair of annular bodies can be prevented. However, for example, when the bearing is used at high speed rotation, there is a possibility that a problem of generation of noise due to rattling in the circumferential direction may occur.

これに対して、一方の環状体に突設された凸部を他方の環状体の凹部に嵌合させて、これらの凹部及び凸部を溶着させる連結構造の場合は、柱部の軸方向のガタつきだけでなく、環状体相互の周方向のガタつきをもなくすことができる。しかし、溶着による連結は、柱部の軸方向の連結力（固着力）では、加締めによる連結構造よりも劣るため、例えば軸受が高速回転で使用されていて、環状体相互が離反する方向の作用力であるバレ力が強く働いた時に、溶着部の破損により環状体相互の連結が外れてしまう虞があった。   On the other hand, in the case of a connection structure in which the convex portion protruding from one annular body is fitted into the concave portion of the other annular body and these concave portions and convex portions are welded, the axial direction of the column portion In addition to rattling, it is possible to eliminate rattling in the circumferential direction between the annular bodies. However, the connection by welding is inferior to the connection structure by caulking in the axial connection force (fixing force) of the column part. For example, the bearings are used at high speed rotation, and the annular bodies are separated from each other. When the barre force, which is an acting force, worked strongly, there was a risk that the annular bodies were disconnected from each other due to breakage of the welded portion.

本発明の目的は上記課題を解消することに係り、一対の樹脂部材相互を軸方向及び軸に直交する方向の双方にガタつきがなく、しかも、軸方向の連結強度もバレ難い十分な強度に向上させることのできる連結構造を提供すること、さらには、この連結構造を用いることで転動体に対する保持性能が向上した転がり軸受用樹脂製保持器を提供すること、更に、この保持器を使用することにより、高速回転時にも保持器に異音が発生しにくく、また、保持器にバレが生じ難く、許容回転数の向上が図り易い転がり軸受を提供することである。   An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and there is no backlash between the pair of resin members in both the axial direction and the direction orthogonal to the axis, and the connection strength in the axial direction is also sufficiently hard to be distorted. Providing a connecting structure that can be improved, further providing a resin cage for a rolling bearing with improved holding performance for rolling elements by using this connecting structure, and further using this cage Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a rolling bearing in which abnormal noise is not easily generated in the cage even during high-speed rotation, and the cage is less likely to burr and the allowable rotational speed can be easily improved.

以下、本発明に係る連結構造及び、該連結構造を用いた転がり軸受用樹脂製保持器、及び該保持器を使用した転がり軸受の好適な実施の形態について、図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
図１は本発明に係る転がり軸受の一実施の形態の斜視図、図２は図１に示した転がり軸受の樹脂製保持器において、保持器を構成する一対の環状体相互を連結する連結構造の連結時の処理手順を示す縦断面図で、図３は図２に示した連結構造の組立完了状態の縦断面図である。 DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of a connection structure according to the present invention, a resin cage for a rolling bearing using the connection structure, and a rolling bearing using the cage will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. .
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a rolling bearing according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a connecting structure for connecting a pair of annular members constituting the cage in the resin cage of the rolling bearing shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a processing procedure at the time of coupling, and FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the coupling structure shown in FIG. 2 in an assembled state.

図１に示した転がり軸受１は、内輪３と外輪５との間に配置される複数個の転動体７を、樹脂製保持器９により周方向に所定の配列ピッチに保持するようにした保持器付き転がり軸受である。   The rolling bearing 1 shown in FIG. 1 holds a plurality of rolling elements 7 arranged between an inner ring 3 and an outer ring 5 so as to be held at a predetermined arrangement pitch in the circumferential direction by a resin cage 9. It is a rolling bearing with a vessel.

樹脂製保持器９は、転動体７が配置される内外輪間の転動体収容空間を左右両側から覆うように対向配置される一対の樹脂製の環状体１１、１２から構成され、ている。
各環状体１１、１２には円周方向の複数箇所に転動体７を転動自在に収容するポケット１４が設けられ、これらの一対の環状体１１、１２を連結することで、転がり軸受１内の複数個の転動体７を周方向に所定の離間間隔に保持する左右対称構造の保持器が形成されている。 The resin cage 9 is composed of a pair of resin annular bodies 11 and 12 that are arranged to face each other so as to cover the rolling element housing space between the inner and outer rings where the rolling elements 7 are arranged from both left and right sides.
Each annular body 11, 12 is provided with a pocket 14 that accommodates the rolling element 7 at a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction, and the pair of annular bodies 11, 12 can be connected to each other in the rolling bearing 1. A cage having a left-right symmetric structure for holding the plurality of rolling elements 7 at a predetermined spacing in the circumferential direction is formed.

樹脂製保持器９を構成している一対の環状体１１，１２は、図２（ａ）に示すように、一方の環状体１１の連結面１１ａに一体に突設された柱部２１を、他方の環状体１２の連結面１２ａに形成された連結用穴部２３に挿入した後、図２（ｂ）に示すように、連結用穴部２３の外側に突出した柱部２１の頭部２１ａに超音波溶着加締めをすることで、相互に連結一体化される。   As shown in FIG. 2 (a), the pair of annular bodies 11 and 12 constituting the resin cage 9 includes column portions 21 that project integrally with the connection surface 11a of one annular body 11. After being inserted into the connecting hole 23 formed in the connecting surface 12a of the other annular body 12, as shown in FIG. 2B, the head 21a of the column portion 21 protruding outside the connecting hole 23 is obtained. Are connected and integrated with each other by ultrasonic welding.

本実施の形態の場合、柱部２１の側面２１ｂと連結用穴部２３の側面２３ｂには、予め、頭部２１ａへの超音波溶着加締めにより溶着する凹凸２５を設けている。
凹凸２５は、柱部２１の頭部２１ａを超音波溶着する際に、柱部２１に伝達される振動エネルギーの集中により溶融し易いため、該凹凸２５を設けたことで、柱部２１の側面２１ｂと連結用穴部２３の側面２３ｂとの溶着を速やかに達成することができる。
また、それぞれの側面２１ｂ，２３ｂが一旦溶融するため、柱部２１と連結用穴部２３との嵌め合いが隙間嵌めとなることに起因したガタつきの発生や、締まり嵌めとなることに起因した応力発生を防止することができる。 In the case of the present embodiment, the side surface 21b of the column portion 21 and the side surface 23b of the connecting hole portion 23 are previously provided with concavities and convexities 25 that are welded by ultrasonic welding caulking to the head portion 21a.
Since the unevenness 25 easily melts due to the concentration of vibration energy transmitted to the column portion 21 when the head 21a of the column portion 21 is ultrasonically welded, the side surface of the column portion 21 is provided by providing the unevenness 25. Welding between 21b and the side surface 23b of the connecting hole 23 can be quickly achieved.
In addition, since the side surfaces 21b and 23b are once melted, the backlash generated due to the fit between the column portion 21 and the connecting hole portion 23 becomes a gap fit, or the stress caused by an interference fit. Occurrence can be prevented.

以上に説明した樹脂製保持器９において、一対の環状体１１、１２相互の連結は、一方の環状体１１に突設された柱部２１を他方の環状体１２の連結用穴部２３に挿通させて、柱部２１の頭部２１ａを加締めることによる第１の連結構造と、嵌合している柱部２１と連結用穴部２３の側面２１ｂ，２３ｂ同士の溶着による第２の連結構造とによりなされている。
そして、図３に示すように、加締めによる第１の連結構造Ｌ１は、加締めにより径方向に膨出した柱部２１の頭部２１ａが他方の環状体１２を押えるため、柱部２１の軸方向に沿ったガタつきを無くした強固な連結を得る。
また、図３に示すように、溶着による第２の連結構造Ｌ２は、柱部２１の軸方向の連結を補強すると同時に、柱部２１と連結用穴部２３との間の隙間を無くして、柱部２１の軸方向に直交する方向へのガタつきを無くした連結を得る。
従って、上記の樹脂製保持器９の連結構造では、これらの第１の連結構造と第２の連結構造の相乗により、一対の樹脂製の環状体１１、１２相互を軸方向及び軸に直交する周方向の双方にガタつきがなく、しかも、軸方向の連結強度を更に強化して、十分な強度を確保することができる。 In the resin cage 9 described above, the pair of annular bodies 11 and 12 are connected to each other by inserting the column portion 21 projecting from one annular body 11 into the connection hole portion 23 of the other annular body 12. The first connection structure by caulking the head portion 21a of the column part 21, and the second connection structure by welding the side surfaces 21b and 23b of the column part 21 and the connection hole part 23 fitted together. And has been made.
As shown in FIG. 3, the first connecting structure L1 by caulking has the head portion 21a of the column portion 21 bulging in the radial direction by caulking to press the other annular body 12, so A strong connection that eliminates rattling along the axial direction is obtained.
Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the second connection structure L2 by welding reinforces the connection in the axial direction of the column portion 21, and at the same time, eliminates the gap between the column portion 21 and the connection hole portion 23, A connection with no play in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the column 21 is obtained.
Therefore, in the connection structure of the resin cage 9 described above, the pair of resin annular bodies 11 and 12 are orthogonal to each other in the axial direction and the axis by synergy of the first connection structure and the second connection structure. There is no backlash in both circumferential directions, and the axial connection strength can be further strengthened to ensure sufficient strength.

また、上記の樹脂製保持器９は、以上に説明した連結構造によって対向配置される一対の環状体１１、１２相互が、ガタつきなく、且つ強固に連結された左右対称構造の保持器となっているため、高速回転時の環状体１１、１２の変形を防止して、転動体７に対して高い保持性能を確保することができる。   Also, the resin cage 9 is a symmetrically structured cage in which the pair of annular bodies 11 and 12 opposed to each other by the coupling structure described above are firmly connected without looseness. Therefore, deformation of the annular bodies 11 and 12 during high-speed rotation can be prevented, and high holding performance for the rolling elements 7 can be ensured.

従って、上記の転がり軸受１としては、高速回転時にも保持機内でのガタつきに起因した異音が発生しにくく、また、保持器の連結強度不足に起因したバレも生じ難くなり、許容回転数の向上が図り易くなる。   Therefore, the above rolling bearing 1 is less likely to generate abnormal noise due to rattling in the retainer even during high-speed rotation, and is less likely to cause burr due to insufficient connection strength of the cage. It becomes easy to improve.

なお、上記実施の形態では、図２に示したように、連結用穴部２３に嵌合させた柱部２１の頭部２１ａを超音波溶着により加締める行為で、同時に、柱部２１と連結用穴部２３の側面同士の溶着も行っている。
しかし、図４に示すように、先に連結用穴部２３の周縁部に超音波振動を与えて、柱部２１と連結用穴部２３の側面同士の溶着を先に完了させ、その後で、超音波振動を柱部２１の頭部２１ａに与えて、頭部２１ａの加締めを行うようにしても良い。 In the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the head 21 a of the column 21 fitted in the connection hole 23 is caulked by ultrasonic welding, and simultaneously connected to the column 21. Welding of the side surfaces of the hole portion 23 is also performed.
However, as shown in FIG. 4, first, ultrasonic vibration is applied to the peripheral portion of the connecting hole portion 23 to complete the welding of the side surfaces of the column portion 21 and the connecting hole portion 23 first, Ultrasonic vibration may be applied to the head portion 21a of the column portion 21 to caulk the head portion 21a.

また、上記実施の形態の場合、柱部２１の断面は円形で、連結用穴部２３は柱部２１が適度の嵌め合いで嵌合する円形穴としたが、これらの柱部２１及び連結用穴部２３の断面形状は、上記実施の形態の円形に限らない。
また、上記実施の形態では、超音波溶着を容易且つ確実にするために、柱部２１及び連結用穴部２３のそれぞれの側面に凹凸２５を装備したが、いずれか一方の側面にのみ凹凸２５を装備するようにしても良い。 Further, in the case of the above embodiment, the pillar portion 21 has a circular cross section, and the connecting hole portion 23 is a circular hole into which the pillar portion 21 is fitted with an appropriate fit. The cross-sectional shape of the hole 23 is not limited to the circular shape of the above embodiment.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, in order to make ultrasonic welding easy and reliable, although the unevenness | corrugation 25 was equipped in each side surface of the column part 21 and the connection hole part 23, the unevenness | corrugation 25 is provided only in any one side surface. You may make it equip.
