END PLAY MEASUREMENT APPARATUS

摘要

An end play measurement apparatus is provided that measures end play of a tapered roller bearing of a gear unit. The gear unit supports a large-gear shaft, with which a gear is fitted, via the tapered roller bearing. The end play measurement apparatus includes a power generation unit, which is fixed to the large-gear shaft and generates power to move the gear unit backward and forward in the axial direction, a position change unit, which is interposed between the power generation unit and the gear unit and changes the axial position of the gear unit by using the power of the power generation unit, and a booster mechanism, which has a free end that receives the power of the power generation unit to boost the power.

1. An end play measurement apparatus that measures end play of a tapered roller bearing of a gear unit that supports a rotation shaft via the tapered roller bearing, the rotation shaft being fitted with a gear, the apparatus comprising:
a power generation unit that is fixed to the rotation shaft and generates power to move the gear unit backward and forward in an axial direction; and a position change unit that is interposed between the power generation unit and the gear unit and changes an axial position of the gear unit by using the power of the power generation unit, wherein the position change unit comprises a booster mechanism that is positioned so as to be astride the rotation shaft and is formed into a substantially U-shape having ends that are coupled to the power generation unit and a free end that receives power of the power generation unit to boost the power and transmit the resultant power to the gear unit.
