Spherical roller bearing

摘要

A spherical roller bearing having an axially extending center axis, an outer ring, an inner ring concentric with the outer ring, a guide ring concentric with the inner and outer rings, the guide ring has two lateral surfaces, one set of cambered rollers on either side of the guide ring and a cage structure arranged to retain the two sets of cambered rollers. The guide ring includes two circumferential guide ring sections, an inner guide ring section proximal to the inner ring and an outer guide ring section distal to the inner ring. A portion of at least one of the two lateral surfaces corresponding to the inner guide ring section is provided with at least one of at least one depression and at least one protrusion. The cambered rollers of each set are distanced from the inner guide ring section and in contact with the outer guide ring section.

主权项

1. A spherical roller bearing having an axially extending center axis (A) and comprising:
an outer ring having an outer race, an inner ring concentric with the outer ring and having two inner races, a guide ring concentric with the inner ring and the outer ring, wherein the guide ring has an outer base surface facing the outer ring, an inner base surface facing the inner ring and two lateral surfaces extending between the outer base surface and the inner base surface, wherein the distance in the axial direction between the two lateral surfaces decreases from the outer base surface towards the inner base surface, one set of cambered rollers on either side of the guide ring such that each set of rollers is associated with one inner race, a cage structure arranged to retain the two sets of cambered rollers, wherein the guide ring provides two circumferential guide ring sections, an inner guide ring section proximal to the inner ring and extending in the radial direction between the inner base surface and a predetermined point (P) arranged between the outer base surface and the inner base surface, an outer guide ring section being distal to the inner ring and extending in the radial direction between the predetermined point (P) and the outer base surface, wherein a portion of at least one of the two lateral surfaces corresponding to the inner guide ring section is provided with at least one of at least one depression and at least one protrusion and wherein the cambered rollers of each set are distanced from the inner guide ring section and in contact with the outer guide ring section.
