BS EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010 (E)4 Introduction A test method is standardized, which is referred to in EN 12081. This European S

25、tandard standardizes a test method and acceptance criteria for the demand in EN 12081 for testing the mechanical stability of axlebox lubricating greases. It addresses the issue of mechanical stability of lubricating greases operating under severe conditions. All lubricants have three main functions

26、 to form a lubricating film that separates rolling elements and raceways, to protect the bearings from corrosion and to give good longevity. For lubricating grease there is a further demand: the product needs to be mechanically stable in use. Currently several common lubricating grease shear stabili

27、ty tests are available to industry, but the procedure in this European Standard is the most severe. It has been available for many years and it is used to discriminate between lubricating greases of different stabilities. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a test method and sets the acceptance

28、 criteria for the determination of the mechanical stability of lubricating greases intended for the lubrication of axlebox bearings according to EN 12081. In the test, impacts are applied to the lubricating grease so that only very stable lubricating greases will perform acceptably. The method is us

29、ed in a discrimination process for finding lubricating greases of such mechanical stability that they are considered accepted lubricating greases for more extensive performance tests according to EN 12082. For purposes of quality assurance and quality control, this test method is also used for batch

30、 testing of lubricating greases. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard.

33、ons For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. BS EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010 (E)5 3.1 lubricating grease semi-solid product consisting of a mixture of liquid lubricant and thickened with soaps or other thickeners, and may also contain o

34、ther ingredients, imparting special properties (additives) 3.2 lubricating grease mechanical stability resistance to breakdown of the lubricating grease structure under shear, causing the product to become softer 3.3 lifting device hoist, block and tackle suitably supported, a traverse or other devi

35、ce suitable to support and safely manoeuvre the axlebox and its components 4 Testing principle A typical type of railway axlebox with a labyrinth seal and two spherical roller bearings is packed with test lubricating grease. The axlebox axle is first rotated for 72 h at 500 r/min (52,4 rad/s) while

36、the axlebox is subject to vibrational accelerations. The vibration is brought about by hitting the axlebox every second with a hammer with a falling height of 4,5 mm. The second part of the test continues in the same way for another 72 h, but the rotational speed of the axle is increased to 1 000 r/

37、min (104,7 rad/s). The weight of lubricating grease lost from the axlebox is recorded as a measure of mechanical stability. 5 Reagents and materials Use only reagents of recognised analytical grades (e.g. white spirit according to BS 245 specification). 6 Apparatus1)The following V2F test rig and eq

38、uipment are used in the test: a) test rig as described in Annex A and detailed in Annex B; b) lifting device suitable for supporting and manoeuvring the assembled axlebox (approximately 100 kg); c) spatula; d) balance; e) thermocouple. 7 Sampling The following measures shall be taken when taking sam

39、ples: a) unless otherwise specified, samples shall be taken in accordance with one of the procedures specified in EN ISO 3170; b) laboratory samples shall be examined for homogeneity before taking the test portion. NOTE How lubricating grease samples are to be taken after the test procedure is descr

40、ibed in 8.10; 1) Information about suitable equipment is available from SKF Quality Technology Centre, A-4400 Steyr, Austria. BS EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010 (E)6 c) samples shall be stored at a temperature between 0 C and 30 C, for at least 24 h, before use. 8 Testing procedure 8.

41、1 General The procedure is described assuming that the apparatus is disassembled. If this is not the case, then disassemble the apparatus and bearings, as described in 8.10 and 8.11, before proceeding. 8.2 Preparation of the apparatus Make sure that the test rig is earthed and that the electrical wi

42、ring is correct. When starting the machine, carefully check that the eccentric cam rotates in the correct direction. 8.3 Washing procedure All parts of the axlebox shall be washed and thoroughly dried before any running test is carried out. White spirit or a similar non-aqueous solvent should be use

43、d for the washing and the parts may be dried using clean and dry compressed air. The bearings shall be disassembled before washing according to the method described in 8.11. 8.4 Assembly of the bearings The rollers shall be placed into the pockets in the two cage halves, with the exception of 12 rol

44、lers, 6 from each side of the bearing, i.e. 3 cage pockets are left empty on each side of each cage half to allow assembly. The cage halves and the guide ring are then placed over the inner ring. The inner ring assembly is fitted into the outer ring and swung out so that it is possible to press the

45、remaining rollers into position. 8.5 Volume and distribution of the test lubricating grease A total volume of 1 370 cm3lubricating grease shall be used for the test and this volume of lubricating grease is split up in 5 portions 132 cm3, 174 cm3, 700 cm3, 174 cm3and 190 cm3. These portions are to be

46、 prepared to an accuracy of 0,5 cm3. If the density of the lubricating grease is known, the weight of the lubricating grease instead of the volume can be used. NOTE Previous trials have proven that following the specified volumes is essential for the accuracy of the testing. 8.6 Assembly of the box

47、The collar shall be pressed on the axle (Figure B.1, key 8). The first bearing (Figure B.1, key 6) is pressed on and the spacing ring (Figure B.1, key 5) mounted. The bearing is filled with 174 cm3lubricating grease. This is done by applying the lubricating grease with a suitable spatula. The outer

48、ring is swung out and about half of the lubricating grease volume is worked between the rollers. With the outer ring swung back into position, the rest of the lubricating grease is applied. The second bearing (Figure B.1, key 4) is then pressed on and 174 cm3lubricating grease is applied in the same

49、 way as described for the first bearing. The fixing plate (Figure B.1, key 3) is placed into position and the bolts drawn tight to keep the bearings in place. BS EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010EN 14865-2:2006+A2:2010 (E)7 A portion of the lubricating grease, 190 cm3, is placed behind the labyrinth grooves (Figure B.1, lubricating grease portion D). No lubricating grease is placed in the labyrint
