Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a double-row self-aligning roller bearing for preventing the wear of a guide ring existing between rows of rollers, when held between both rows of rollers, due to the occurrence of excessive loads in slide contact areas between each roller and the guide ring.SOLUTION: An annular groove is formed in at least one of the outer diameter face and the inner diameter face of the guide ring so that the guide ring is elastically deformed with its guide face receiving a load. When receiving the load from the rollers, the guide ring is elastically deformed to allow the load to escape, thus preventing the occurrence of excessive loads in the slide contact areas between each roller and the guide ring.

Description

本発明は、産業機械に用いられる転がり軸受、特に、案内輪を有する複列の自動調心ころ軸受に関する。   The present invention relates to a rolling bearing used in an industrial machine, and more particularly to a double row self-aligning roller bearing having a guide wheel.

鉄鋼設備や製紙機械のロール等で用いられる自動調心ころ軸受は、内周面に球面状の軌道面を有する外輪と、外径面に外輪の軌道面と対向する複列の球面状の軌道面を有する内輪と、外輪及び内輪の軌道面の間を転動自在且つ複列に配置される複数のころと、ころの転動方向の間隔を一定に保持する保持器と、を備えている。このような自動調心ころ軸受においては、複列に配置されたのころがスキューすることなく転動できる様、ころの端面を案内する案内輪をころの列間に配置することが行われている。   Self-aligning roller bearings used in steel equipment and papermaking machine rolls have an outer ring having a spherical raceway surface on the inner peripheral surface and a double row spherical raceway facing the outer raceway surface on the outer diameter surface. An inner ring having a surface, a plurality of rollers that can roll between outer races and raceways of the inner ring and arranged in a double row, and a cage that maintains a constant spacing in the rolling direction of the rollers. . In such a self-aligning roller bearing, guide wheels for guiding the end faces of the rollers are arranged between the roller rows so that the rollers arranged in double rows can roll without skew. Yes.

案内輪によるころのスキュー防止の効果は、一般的にころと案内輪との隙間が小さい程大きく、隙間が大きくなるほどスキュー防止の効果が小さくなる。その一方で、ころと案内輪との隙間が小さいと、ころと案内輪との接触部で生じる面圧が高くなり、発熱や磨耗の原因となる虞がある。そのため、ころと案内輪との隙間を一定の範囲に収まるようにする必要があるが、それには軸受及び案内輪に対する高い加工精度が必要であり、加工時間や加工費用の増大を招く虞があった。   In general, the effect of preventing the skew of the roller by the guide wheel is larger as the gap between the roller and the guide wheel is smaller, and the effect of preventing the skew is smaller as the gap is larger. On the other hand, if the gap between the roller and the guide wheel is small, the surface pressure generated at the contact portion between the roller and the guide wheel increases, which may cause heat generation and wear. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the gap between the roller and the guide wheel within a certain range. However, this requires high processing accuracy for the bearing and the guide wheel, which may increase the processing time and processing cost. It was.

案内輪の磨耗対策に関する先行技術として、特許文献1には、案内輪の両側面に周方向の溝を形成し、ころ端面と案内輪側面との間の油膜切れによる案内輪の磨耗を防止する発明が開示されている。また、特許文献2には、内輪案内の案内輪内径に、油溝を形成し、内輪外径面に設けた潤滑油の給油通路から潤滑油を供給してころ端面と案内輪側面との間の油膜切れによる案内輪の磨耗を防止する発明が開示されている。   As a prior art related to measures against wear of the guide wheels, Patent Document 1 discloses that circumferential grooves are formed on both side surfaces of the guide wheels to prevent wear of the guide wheels due to oil film breakage between the roller end surfaces and the guide wheel side surfaces. The invention is disclosed. In Patent Document 2, an oil groove is formed in the inner diameter of the guide ring of the inner ring guide, and the lubricating oil is supplied from the lubricating oil supply passage provided on the outer diameter surface of the inner ring so that the gap between the roller end face and the side face of the guide wheel is reduced. An invention for preventing wear of the guide wheel due to the oil film breakage is disclosed.

しかし、特許文献1、特許文献2に記載の発明はころ端面と案内輪との間に生じる過大な荷重自体を低減することが出来ないという課題があった。   However, the inventions described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 have a problem that an excessive load itself generated between the roller end face and the guide wheel cannot be reduced.

そこで、本発明はころ端面と案内輪側面との摺接部に過大な荷重が生じるのを防止し、案内輪の磨耗を防止することを課題とする。   Therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent an excessive load from being generated at the sliding contact portion between the roller end surface and the guide wheel side surface, and to prevent the guide wheel from being worn.

上記課題を解決するために、請求項1に記載の発明は、内周面に球面状の軌道面を有する外輪と、外周面に前記外輪軌道面に対向する複列の軌道面を有する内輪と、前記複列の軌道面に転動自在に配置される複数のころと、前記ころの列間に配置されて前記ころを案内する案内輪と、を備えた複列自動調心ころ軸受において、案内輪の内径は内輪外径面で案内され、且つ、案内輪の外径面及び、内径面の少なくとも一方に環状溝が形成されていることを特徴としている。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, an invention according to claim 1 includes an outer ring having a spherical raceway surface on an inner peripheral surface, and an inner ring having a double-row raceway surface facing the outer ring raceway surface on an outer peripheral surface. In the double-row self-aligning roller bearing, comprising a plurality of rollers arranged to roll on the double-row raceway surface, and a guide wheel arranged between the rows of rollers to guide the rollers, The inner diameter of the guide wheel is guided by the outer diameter surface of the inner ring, and an annular groove is formed on at least one of the outer diameter surface and the inner diameter surface of the guide wheel.

本発明によれば、案内輪の外径面、又は内径面に環状溝を設けることで、案内輪側面がころ端面により押圧される際に案内輪が弾性変形し、ころ端面と案内輪側面との接触部に生じる面圧が過大に上昇するのを防止することで、案内輪の磨耗を防止することができる。
それに伴い、ころ端面と案内輪との隙間をころのスキュー制御に有利となる様小さくすることができる。
According to the present invention, by providing an annular groove on the outer diameter surface or inner diameter surface of the guide wheel, the guide wheel elastically deforms when the guide wheel side surface is pressed by the roller end surface, and the roller end surface and the guide wheel side surface By preventing the surface pressure generated at the contact portion from rising excessively, wear of the guide wheel can be prevented.
Accordingly, the gap between the roller end face and the guide wheel can be reduced so as to be advantageous for roller skew control.
