Bearings from working principle can be divided into rolling bearings and plain bearings, Rolling occurs when the rolling friction of the sliding friction and plain bearings work Vice, which determines the the work friction coefficient of rolling bearings and plain bearings differ by at least ten of magnitude or more; lubrication conditions and at a certain load and speed, the magnitude of the coefficient of friction of rolling bearings substantially vary depending on the ball, the manufacturing precision of the bearing inner ring and with the gap between, and the size of its friction with the bearing material itself no direct relationship Rolling ships require periodic external lubricant; lubrication conditions and at the same load and speed, the sliding bearing friction coefficient depends mainly on the size of the self-lubricating properties of the bearing material itself, due to the sliding bearing material having a good self-lubricating properties, without refueling or less fuel to long-term work; plain bearings bearing self-lubricating plain bearings can be maintenance-free self-lubricating characteristics determine the plain bearings are increasingly being engineering staff adopted.
Sliding bearing lubrication mechanism and limit PV value
Sliding bearing sliding friction occurs due to the contact surface of the shaft and bearing, bearing the face in the initial work surface to form a lubricating film separated from the surface of the deputy campaign, after a short-term run-sliding friction can be greatly reduced, the deputy campaign surface not in direct contact, and thus also avoids wear and tear. Sliding bearing capacity, high precision turning, lubricating film with shock effect, so access to a wide range of applications in engineering. The formation of the lubricating film is plain bearings the basic conditions for normal work, the factors that affect the formation of lubricating film lubrication, deputy campaign relative velocity, the internal lubricant physical properties, and the joint surface roughness. The maximum limit of the sliding bearing an important measure of performance is the bearing can be achieved, where P is the load bearing, and V is representative of the line of bearing operating speed; sliding bearing limit PV value larger bearing performance better life longer; affect plain bearings PV limit the size of the main factors is the bearing material itself self-lubricating properties and bearing temperature performance; external factors affect the actual PV value of plain bearings bearings to withstand load, running speed, ambient temperature, and with precision. The general design of the sliding bearing manufacturing PV limit the bigger the better, and the requirements for the design of sliding bearings bearing PV value as small as possible, which will help to extend the life of the slide bearing. Sliding bearing design is generally based on the working conditions of the bearing, determine the type of bearing structure, select the appropriate bearing material and to determine the geometric parameters of the bearing.
Sliding bearing type: metal plain bearings, non-metallic plain bearings
Plain bearings in accordance with metal sliding bearing and non-metallic materials can be divided into plain bearings. Metal sliding bearing is usually divided into a composite sliding bearings, sliding bearings, etc. of the metal base. Non-metallic sliding bearings are usually divided into> engineering plastics plain bearings, bearing filament winding.
Composite bearings generally consists of three layers: a substrate layer + layer of copper powder + antifriction layer; bearing wherein the substrate layer plays a role, the copper layer is, as the binding force between the enhanced substrate and the surface of the antifriction material exist, and Save friction layer sintering and rolling technology commonly used in the inner surface of the bearing face that sintering a layer of special lubricants (CSB-10> or DU bearings) or as a self-lubricating modified engineering plastics, anti-friction material (CSB-20 or DX bearings) jobs> part of the lubricating material will be slowly transferred to the surface of the shaft, bearing friction layer and vice create friction between the grinding surface of the shaft lubrication film, the friction coefficient at the same time reduce the rate of wear of the bearings is to achieve also decreases; generally used for the working surface of the composite bearing antifriction material Teflon PTFE, disulfide of molybdenum MoS2, graphite Graphite, modified engineering plastics, high-performance special lubricating materials; while for the loads substrate materials are generally low carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, etc.; the composite class bearing material structure determines these bearings are generally used for medium load medium speed in the workplace.
Metal matrix sliding bearing technology
Metal-based sliding bearings generally can be divided into the mosaic of the solid lubricant sliding bearing (CSB650 series), bi-metal sliding bearing (CSB800 series) and overall sliding bearings; the solid lubricant mosaic sliding bearings generally use special copper material as the matrix, then in accordance with the horizontal and vertical projection no blind through holes in the bearing substrate thickness on the hole in the solid lubricant inlaid copper substrate; work both as a carrier material as a friction material, while the solid lubricant embedded in the hole slowly distributed in the bearing bore friction surface, and will run slowly as the work part of the transfer to the surface of the shaft to form a lubricating film; double metal sliding bearing by the steel sheet substrate layer and the surface friction-reducing layer, The substrate steel sheet and the composite sliding bearing similar ships such as low carbon steel, friction reducing layer on the surface as compared to copper alloy containing a solid lubricant powder sintering; the overall sliding bearings is generally used copper alloy containing a solid lubricant powder sintering into, and then through the vacuum suction processing, so that the tiny pores in the bearing material containing lubricant, lubricant or oil will work in a thin layer of a lubricating film is formed on the grinding surface of the shaft; metal base class sliding bearings due to its material property determines applicable to the work load is relatively large and low speed applications.
