11、 10012 Measurement Management Systems Requirements for Measurement Processes and Measuring Equipment2.2 DefinitionsPERMANENT SET: Permanent set is the displacement of the bearing in the load path during one excursion from a specified pre-load to limit load and return to pre-load.RADIAL LIMIT LOAD: T

12、he radial limit load is the maximum load that should be applied to the bearing. A defined limit for permanent set is established corresponding to the specified limit load.RADIAL ULTIMATE LOAD: The radial ultimate load is 1.5 multiplied by the radial limit load. After application of the radial ultima

13、te load there may be significant permanent deformation of the bearing components. There shall not, however, be any cracked or broken components.3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS3.1 Test Apparatus3.1.1 Testing MachineThe testing machine shall be capable of applying the required radial load at a controlled rate

14、. The calibration system for themachine shall conform to ANSI/NCSL Z540.3 and ISO 10012. Its accuracy shall be verified every 12 months by a method complying with ASTM E4. The limit and ultimate loads of the bearings tested shall be within the loading range of the testing machine as defined in ASTM

15、E4.3.1.2 Deflection Measuring DeviceThe measuring device shall be a mechanical or electronic linear indicator with a definition of 0.0002 inch and an accuracy of 0.0001 inch, or an extensometer with a precision of at least 1% of the indicated joint deflection at the limit load being applied. If usin

16、g an electronic linear indicator, an autographic recorder with an accuracy of 0.5% of the indicated joint deflection at the limit load should be used in conjunction with it, and be calibrated in accordance with ASTM E83. If using adial indicator to measure deflection, sufficient data points should b

17、e recorded to plot a load versus deflection curve manually. Load and deflection ranges shall be used which give the initial part of the load extension curve a slope ideally between 45 and 60 degrees. The measuring device does not need to be attached directly to the fixtures.3.1.3 Test FixturesThe te

18、st fixtures shall be as shown in Figure 1a thru 1d. The test housing and strut shall be fabricated from steel and heat treated to a hardness of 40 HRC minimum. The test pin shall be fabricated from high strength tool steel or equivalent, heattreated to a hardness of 50 HRC minimum. For economy it is

19、 permissible to use adapter housings and bushings that permit one housing and strut assembly to be used for a variety of bearing sizes. Other techniques are acceptable provided that they can be calibrated to account for fixture deflection.SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP5448/1A Page 3 of 83.2 Specimen3.2.1 Qua

20、ntityThe number of test specimens shall be as specified in the referencing document.3.2.2 Disposition after Test3.2.2.1 Bearings Subjected to Limit and Ultimate Load TestsUnless otherwise specified by the applicable specification or contract, bearings that have been subjected to these tests may have

21、 deformed components and shall not be shipped.4. DETAILED REQUIREMENTS4.1 Installation4.1.1 SleevesThe sleeve shall be installed in the test fixture as shown in Figure 1a or 1b (as applicable) using a 0.0000 to 0.0011 inch interference fit with the housing for steel bearings, 0.0001 to 0.0016 inch i

22、nterference fit for aluminum bearings, and a 0.002 to 0.004 inch loose fit with the pin. The use of differential temperatures for installation is acceptable.4.1.2 Plain Spherical BearingsThe bearing shall be installed in the test fixture as shown in Figure 1c using a 0.0000 to 0.0010 inch loose fit

23、with the housing, and a 0.0000 to 0.0010 inch loose fit with the pin. The use of differential temperatures for installation is not allowed.4.1.3 Rod End BearingsThe bearing shall be installed in the test fixture as shown in Figure 1d using a 0.0000 to 0.0010 inch loose fit with the pin. The use of d

24、ifferential temperatures for installation is not allowed. An appropriately threaded attachment shall be installed on the rod end shank permitting a thread engagement of at least 1 times the thread pitch diameter.4.2 Radial Limit Load TestApply a preload equal to 4 to 6% of the specified radial limit

25、 load and maintain for a minimum of 3 minutes. (NOTE: Rod end bearing tests shall be performed such that the bearing load places the shank in tension.) Engage the deflection measuring device and “zero” the autographic recorder. Increase the load to the specified limit load at a rate of a minimum of

26、1% of the specified load per second. Maintain the radial limit load for a minimum of 2 minutes. Remove the load, at the same rate as during loading, to the initial preload. The permanent set shall be the deflection reading when the radial load returns to preload. NOTE: When a bearing specimen is to

27、be subjected to the radial ultimate load test, it will not be necessary to remove that bearing from the test fixture after completing the radial limit load test.4.3 Radial Ultimate Load Test(NOTE: Rod end bearing tests shall be performed such that the bearing load places the shank in tension.) Incre

28、ase the load to the specified ultimate load at a rate of a minimum of 1% of the specified load per second. Remove the load at the same rate as during loading.4.4 Test DurationTesting shall continue until the test is successfully completed (when the appropriate load rating of the bearing has been met

29、) or until failure as defined in the applicable specification has occurred.SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP5448/1A Page 4 of 84.5 Post Test Evaluation4.5.1 Radial Limit LoadThe data shall be reviewed for conformance to the performance criteria (i.e., deflection at load, permanent set, etc.) as required by the

30、applicable specification.4.5.2 Radial Ultimate LoadExamine the test specimen. Deformation of the outer race is acceptable. There shall be no cracked or broken components.5.

31、ed airframe bearings and for high speed helicopter rotor head bearings. Specific test and data requirements are given in the applicable document.
