17、 ball, etc.) is rolled down the ramp onto the testsurface. The distance traveled after exiting the ramp is mea-sured. The ratio of the height of the spherical shapes outsidediameter above the test surface (plane) to the distance rolledafter leaving the ramp is the coefficient of rolling resistance.T
18、he test concept is that the potential energy of the sphere raisedto a height (mass height) is equated to the rolling energy ofthe released sphere (mass distance rolled). The energy ismanifested in distance traveled after leaving the launch ramp.The distance traveled is the test metric, and this dist

Data developed with oneprocedure cannot be readily compared with data developedusing one of the other procedures since the spherical shapes,launch ramps, and rolling surfaces are different.5. Signific
21、ance and Use5.1 Rolling friction like sliding friction depends upon manyfactors. It is a system effect that involves the nature of therolling surface and the counterface. The sliding friction force(F) is usually considered to be the sum of forces arising fromdeformations of surface features (Fs), fr
22、om attractive forces(atomic, molecular, etc.) at contact points (Fa) and force frominteraction of films and particulates on the rubbing surfaces(Ff):F 5 Fa1Fs1Ff(1)The rolling friction force includes these force contributionsplus effects from the relative stiffness of the contactingsurfaces, the dia
23、meter (curvature) of the spherical shape(ball, orange, etc.) and other factors. Because there are somany factors involved in a rolling tribosystem, rolling resis-tance can best be quantified by an actual test of the sphereof interest on the intended counterface, as in this testmethod.5.2 There are c
24、ountless applications where it is important toquantify the rolling characteristics of a particular sphericalshape on a particular surface. The interlaboratory tests con-ducted for this test method were performed on hardened steelballs like those used in ball bearings. This test method could beused t
25、o assess the effect of different counterface surfaces on therolling characteristics of balls for ball bearings. Conversely, itcould be used as a quality control test on balls. Surfaceimperfections/defects/films, etc. on the balls can affect howthey roll: the distance traveled on a common counterface
26、.5.3 Industrial applications of this test method can includeassessing conveying surfaces for spherical or nearly specialparts: check valve balls, cabinet knobs, Christmas ornaments,toilet floats, etc. Many medical devices use special shapeswhere rolling characteristics are a consideration. Similarly
27、,many pharmaceutical products (pills) are spherical or nearlyspherical in shape, and this test method can be used to assessrolling characteristics for conveying or other reasons such assize (mass) check.5.4 Rolling friction of spherical shapes can be a consider-ation in countless sports (soccer, gol
28、f, lacrosse, etc.) and gameapplications (billiards, bocce, toys, etc.). This test method canbe used to rank the rolling resistance of different ballcompositions, masses, shapes, surface textures, design,stiffness, etc. Similarly, the test method can be used to assessthe ease of rolling of balls on d
29、ifferent playing or gamesurfaces.5.5 This test method is very applicable to spherical ormostly spherical food products. For example, it is common touse rolling distance of apples, citrus, nuts, etc. to classify themby size for marketing. They are rolled down an angled surfaceand the rolling distance
30、 becomes a function of size (mass/diameter). This test method can be used to assess the suitabilityof various rolling surfaces (carpet, metal, wood, etc.) forsuitability in classification equipment. It could also be used forfood conveyance on spherical-shaped processed foods(gumballs, hard candy, me
31、atballs, etc.)5.6 Finally, this test method can be a valuable teaching toolfor physics and tribology students. The equipment is simple,low cost and student proof. It can be used to demonstrate theconcept of rolling friction and the factors that affect it.6. Apparatus6.1 Atypical launch ramp for smal
32、l-diameter balls is shownin Fig. X2.1. The ramp can be made from any metal with acold-finished surface roughness in the range of 0.1 and 0.3-mroughness average. Corrosion-resistant materials (aluminum,stainless steel) are preferred as the material of construction ofthe launch ramp since the rolling
33、surface can be subject tocorrosion from rain, dew, handling, etc.6.2 Fig. 1 shows a launch ramp schematic that includes thenecessary design elements of a suitable launch ramp. Thedistance rolled after the spherical shape leaves the ramp (d) isthe test metric. These design elements are:(1) A vee shap

35、exits the ramp.7. Procedure7.1 Test Procedure:7.1.1 Place the launch ramp on the flat, horizontal surface ofinterest.7.1.2 Remove all obvious films and debris from handling onthe ramp, sphere, and counterface.7.1.3 Place the sphere at the top of the launch ramp touchingthe reference surface.7.1.4 Re
36、lease the sphere without added sideward, forward,or backward forces. Small balls can be held in two fingers andreleased; large balls can be held with both hands or a devicecan be used to hold the ball until release.7.1.5 Measure the distance traveled from the launch rampend with a meter stick, tape
37、measure, etc. If the rollingG194 08 (2013)2distances are less than 500 cm, round the result to one decimalplace (for example, 31.3 cm).7.1.6 Calculate the coefficient of rolling resistance (CORR)for the tribosystem using the following equation:CORR 5 h/d (2)where:CORR = may be converted to RR by mul
38、tiplying by 100.This term may be preferred for some applicationssince it usually results in a whole number (afterrounding) that increases with rolling resistance orrolling frictionh = the vertical distance between the spheres point ofcontact with the launch ramp and the horizontalrolling plane.d = t
39、he distance that the sphere rolled (to a stop) afterexiting the inclined plane7.2 Ten replicates are recommended. It is not necessary touse a new travel path for each test if the rolling surface isrobust and not irreversibly deformed during testing.NOTE 1The length of the ramp is neglected in the CO
40、RR calculation.Its length is neglected because this length just becomes a constant addedto the (d) measurements made in the test. It does play a role in retardingthe rolling of the sphere and it must be kept clean and debris free. Dataobtained with one ramp should not be compared with data obtained
41、witha launch ramp with a different height and length.8. Report8.1 It is important to describe fully the rolling member andthe rolling counterface. For example, the newness, conditionand cleanliness of a sphere should be stated along withpertinent counterface conditions such as method ofmanufacture,
42、surface texture, etc. Helpful documents for re-cording data are Guide G115 and Test Method G143. A typicaltest report is shown in Fig. 2.9.
