Rolling elements carry the load without much friction as the sliding friction is replaced with rolling friction. Rolling element bearings can be subdivided into two major types: ball bearings and roller bearings.

The purpose of the cage in bearings is to separate the rolling elements, maintain a constant spacing between the inner and outer rings, accurately guide the rolling elements in the path during rotation, and to prevent the rolling elements from falling out.

This type of ball bearing is immune to misalignment between the shaft and the housing which may happen due to shaft deflection or mounting errors.

The training provider has the right to change the location of events and/or specify a different date as a substitute. The training provider also reserves the right to cancel dates for organizational reasons (e.g. number of participants too low, illness of the speaker at short notice).

Thrust ball bearings are a special type of ball bearings designed specifically for axial loads. They cannot sustain radial loads at all.

The training provider will notify the participant of the cancellation and of the reason with-out undue delay and will attempt to change the participant's reservation, provided that he agrees to a different date or event location. Otherwise, the full amount of any already paid attendance fee will be refunded in the case of a cancellation; no further claims exist, particularly no refund of travel and/or accommodation cost.

The other additional components shields and seals enhance the performance and life of the ball bearing. These optional components are added to the bearing as per the customer’s requirement to increase the performance of the bearing.

Ball bearings are one of the most common types of bearing classes used. It consists of a row of balls as rolling elements. They are trapped between two annulus-shaped metal pieces. These metal pieces are known as races. The inner race is free to rotate while the outer race is stationary.

Roller bearings are also available in various types. The appropriate type may be selected after considering the type and magnitude of loading, service conditions, and the possibility of misalignment among other factors.

The bearings in barstools and lazy Susan’s are totally thrust loaded. The entire load comes from the weight of the objects.

Non-contact bearings include liquid, air, mixed-phase, and magnetic bearings. The lack of mechanical contact eliminates static friction.

They have very low rolling friction and are optimized for low noise and low vibration. This makes them ideal for high-speed applications.

These are the simplest of the roller bearings family. These bearings can face the challenges of heavy radial loading and high speed. They also offer excellent stiffness, axial load transmission, low friction, and long service duration.

Due to the shift in the inner and outer races, the axial load can be transferred through the bearing to the housing. This bearing is suitable for applications where rigid axial guidance is required.

The Outer Ring is the larger of the two bearing rings. On the outer ring, there is a groove on its inside diameter to form a pathway for the balls. It also has the same high-precision finish as the inner ring. The outer ring is usually held stationary.

For online trainings, all materials are offered digitally. For in-person trainings, all materials are offered digitally and may be supplemented with hard copies. Copies of any relevant standards must be provided by the learner.

Even when we need linear motion in applications, it is easy to convert rotational motion to sliding motion. Consider an escalator or a conveyor. Even though the motion is linear, it is powered by rollers that are driven by motors.

The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

The Inner Ring is the smaller of the two bearing rings. It has a groove on its outer diameter to form a raceway for the balls. The surface of the outside diameter path is finished to extremely tight tolerances and is honed to be a very smooth surface. The inner ring is mounted on the shaft and it is the rotating element.

The rolling elements separate the inner ring and outer ring and permit the bearing to rotate with minimal friction. The dimension of the rolling elements is made slightly smaller than the track on the inner and outer rings.

The seal is also inserted into the very small groove on the inside, edge diameter of the outer ring. The inner edge of the seal is molded into a specifically designed lip configuration.

This is the most widely used ball-bearing type. Trapped between the two races is a ring of balls that transmit the load and allows rotational motion between the two races. The balls are held in place by a retainer.

Because the shield does not contact the inner ring of the bearing, there is no added friction between the shield and bearing. This results in a bearing that has very low torque. The purpose of shields is to keep larger particles of contamination from entering the bearing.

They are comparatively easy to install and require minimal maintenance. Care must be taken during installation to prevent denting of the races as they have to be push-fit onto shafts.

Ball bearings provide very low friction during rolling but have limited load-carrying capacity. This is because of the small area of contact between the balls and the races. They can support axial loads in two directions besides radial loads.

The lubricant is an integral part of a bearing’s standard components. Lubrication is added to reduce friction losses in bearing between inner and outer rings.

A deep-dive into two new required GB from the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) compared to similar UNECE regulations. The Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) plans to introduce more than 100 mandatory and optional automotive cybersecurity standards. However, in 2021, the MIIT announced the following two standards will be upgraded to mandatory GB (Guo Biao, or “national standard” in Chinese), meaning all OEMs must comply with the requirements:

Bearings typically experience two kinds of loading radial and thrust. Depending on where the bearing is used, it may see radial loading, thrust loading, or a combination of both.

Split variants are used for areas that are difficult to access such as engine crankshafts. In sealed variants, the bearing contamination is prevented and the lubricant is retained making it a maintenance-free option.

The shield is a stamped, profiled sheet metal disc. The shield is pressed into a very small groove on the inside edge diameter of the outer ring. A small space or gap remains open between the outside diameter of the inner ring and shield.

The bearing makes many of the machines we use every day possible. Without bearings, we would constantly be replacing parts that wear out from friction. Objects roll more easily than they slide. The wheels on your car are like big bearings. If you had something like skis instead of wheels, your car would be much more difficult to push down the road.

Roller bearings contain cylindrical rolling elements instead of balls as load-carrying elements between the races. An element is considered a roller if its length is longer than its diameter (even if only slightly). Since they are in line contact with the inner and outer races (instead of point contact as in the case of ball bearings), they can support greater loading.

Another example is a reciprocating pump that can convert rotational energy from a motor into translational motion with the help of linkages. In each of these applications, ball bearings are used to support motor shafts as well as shafts of other rollers in the assembly.

Ball bearings are used for controlling oscillatory and rotational motion. For example, in electrical motors where the shaft is free to rotate but the motor housing is not, ball bearings are used to connect the shaft to the motor housing.

This change of reservation is free of charge; seminars spanning several days may be transferred only in their entirety, i.e. attended by one substitute.

They are available as single-direction or double-direction bearings and the selection relies on whether the load is unidirectional or bidirectional.

This training addresses these mandatory GB along with the theory and practice of the Chinese Cybersecurity and Data Security Standards System for Intelligent and Connected Vehicles (ICV) issued by MIIT in February 2022. The two mandatory GB suggest specific technologies, security controls and test methods for critical on-board and off-board vehicle systems. As a result, OEMs that have implemented UNECE R155 (Cybersecurity) and R156 (Software Update) must meet additional requirements to comply with these national standards. A comparison of these GB against UNECE R155 (Cybersecurity) and R156 (Software Update) is included.

Most bearings facilitate the desired motion by minimizing friction. Bearings are classified broadly according to the type of operation, the motions allowed, or the directions of the loads (forces) applied to the parts.

The registration can be cancelled free of charge 30 days before the training date, after which the following rules apply:

Bearings reduce friction by providing smooth metal balls or rollers, and a smooth inner and outer metal surface for the balls to roll against. These balls or rollers “bear” the load, allowing the device to spin smoothly.

The inner ring has deep grooves similar to deep groove ball bearings followed by two rows of balls and the outer ring. The outer ring has a concave shape and this grants the inner ring some freedom to rearrange itself depending on the misalignment.

R156pdf

In this ball bearing type, the inner and outer races are displaced with respect to each other along the bearing axis. This type is designed to handle greater amounts of axial loads in both directions in addition to radial loads.

The load capacity can be increased further by obviating the use of cages or retainers that are usually in place to hold the cylindrical rollers. This permits the fitting of more rollers to carry the load.

Rolling element dimensions are controlled to very high accuracy. Surface finish and size variations are important attributes. These attributes are controlled to a micro inch level.

UNECER156Interpretation document

A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.

Selecting a proper bearing for our application is a very important thing. Here is a quick guide for selecting the right bearing.

Rolling element bearings contain rolling elements in the shape of balls or cylinders. We know that it is easier to roll a wheel than slide it on the ground as the magnitude of rolling friction is lower than sliding friction. The same principle is in work here. Rolling element bearings are used to facilitate the free movement of parts in rotational motion.

Bearings are machine elements that allow components to move with respect to each other. There are two types of bearings: contact and non-contact. Contact-type bearings have mechanical contact with equipment, which includes sliding, rolling, or flexural bearings.

The bearing in the hub of your car wheel must support both radial and thrust loads. The radial load comes from the weight of the car; the thrust load comes from the cornering forces when you go around a turn.

The bearings in an electric motor and pulley combination face only a radial load. Most of the load comes from the tension in the belt connecting the pulleys.
