Can only a thorough dissection of the split bearing pedestal reveal damage points?

Although split bearing blocks can be used in different industries, they can cause damage to the section bearing block in various situations, and when damage is found, the location of the damage is unknown. Only a thorough dissection can identify the point of damage. The following sections will introduce the disassembly and inspection methods of split bearing pedestals.

In principle, all split bearing pedestals should be stored in their original packaging before installation. They need to be left in a clean, moisture free, constant temperature environment. The oil free bearing pedestal must not come into contact with dust, water, and corrosive chemicals. Movement and vibration can permanently damage the mechanical properties of split bearing pedestals, so vibration must be prevented during handling and storage. Due to the fact that some heavier oil-free bearing seats may deform due to their own weight after being placed vertically for a long time. Bearing pedestals that are pre greased (or sealed) require special vigilance because the density of grease can change after prolonged storage. Therefore, when the split bearing pedestal is used, it will generate a certain degree of rolling noise. Therefore, the shelving time of this split bearing pedestal should be implemented according to the first in, first out principle.

For centripetal split bearing pedestals subjected to combined loads, due to the increase in the number of loaded rolling elements, friction resistance, heat value, lubrication and cooling conditions, and the increase in the force acting on the support. Therefore, the rotational speed of oil-free bearings must be adjusted based on the type and load size of the split bearing housing multiplied by a drop factor f2.

If the speed and rotation speed of the selected split bearing pedestal cannot meet the operating requirements, certain improvement measures can be taken to achieve better requirements. For example, improving the tolerance of oil free bearings; Increase the clearance appropriately; Change the structure of special materials and cages; Changing the lubrication method is similar to using oil vapor, oil mist, and jet lubrication; Improve cooling conditions, etc.

When disassembling the split bearing block, connect the outer ring to the upper carriage and the inner ring to the lower carriage. Clean and place the sealing ring on the split bearing block. Use a crane to separate the equipment and take out the screws and bolts on the split bearing block. After taking out all the steel balls and isolation sleeves, inspect the steel balls and isolation sleeves. If the isolation sleeves are cracked or damaged, they should be replaced in a timely manner. The steel ball inspection is to clean the steel balls and place them under sunlight to see if there are any pits or pits on the steel balls.
