Description
Summary:The assembly quality between bearing components will lead to an increase in the load imbalance of each rolling element, which becomes a factor that affects the heat generation of precision bearings. The motion and heat generation of angular contact ball bearing (ACBB) under different assembly states were studied, and the quasi-static model of ACBB with outer ring tilting was established. The contact angle, contact load and motion posture of rolling elements were obtained. Then, the relative imbalance of the outer ring was experimentally simulated based on the outer spacer ring with poor end-parallelism, and the thermal characteristics of the spindle system were monitored. Through theoretical and experimental comparison, the influence of different skew degrees of rings on bearing heat generation and spindle rotation accuracy was discussed.
