Use of Tapered Roller Bearings

What is tapered roller bearing
The ability of a single row tapered roller bearing to bear axial load depends on the contact Angle, that is, the outer ring raceway Angle. The greater the Angle, the greater the axial load capacity. The largest amount of tapered roller bearings is single row tapered roller bearings. Double row tapered roller bearings of small size are used in the front wheel hub of the car. Four rows of tapered roller bearings are used in heavy machines such as large cold and hot rolling mills.

Structural characteristics of tapered roller bearings
1. Tapered roller bearings are separated bearings. Under normal circumstances, especially in GB/T307.1-94 "Rolling Bearings Centripetal Bearing Tolerances", the outer ring and inner component of tapered roller bearings within the size range involved are 100% universal and interchangeable.
2. The Angle of the outer ring of tapered roller bearings and the diameter of the outer raceway have been standardized as well as the outer dimension. It is not allowed to change during design and manufacture. In order to make the taper roller bearing between the outer ring and the inner component can be used in the world.
3. Tapered roller bearings are mainly used for bearing combined radial and axial loads, which are mainly radial loads. Compared with angular contact ball bearings, the bearing capacity is large and the limit speed is low.

Use of tapered roller bearings
Different types of tapered roller bearings have a variety of uses, as follows:
1. Tapered roller bearings mainly bear radial combined load and axial load. The clearance of single row tapered roller bearings shall be adjusted by the user during installation. The clearance of double row and four row tapered roller bearings has been set according to the requirements of users when the products leave the factory, without the need of user adjustment.
2. Tapered roller bearings have conical inner ring and outer ring raceway, and tapered rollers are arranged between them. The projection lines of all the conical surfaces meet at the same point of the bearing axis. This design makes tapered roller bearings particularly suitable for bearing composite (radial and axial) loads. The axial load capacity of the bearing is largely determined by the contact Angle α. The larger the alpha Angle, the higher the axial load capacity. The Angle is expressed by the calculation coefficient E. The greater the E value, the greater the contact Angle, the greater the applicability of bearing to bear axial load.
3. Tapered roller bearings are usually of separate type, that is, the taper inner ring assembly composed of the inner ring of the roller and cage assembly can be installed separately from the taper outer ring. They are widely used in automobile, rolling mill, mining, metallurgy, plastic machinery and other industries.
