An Investigation of the Effects and Consequences of Combining Expanding Dual Pin with Radial Spherical Plain Bearings

An expanding pin locks the pin assembly to its supports and bearings and prevents any relative movements between the surfaces in contact. In this study, the diameter changes of the bearing inner ring as a function of the expanding pin’s tightening torque were studied. In addition, the required rotat...
