TITLE PAGE 1 Reference Kinematic Viscosity, 1 25 1 Load Ratings and Fatigue Life for Ball Bearings 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of Standard Ball bearing performance is a funct
22、ion of many variables. These include the bearing design, the characteristics of the material from which the bearings are made, the way in which they are manufactured, as well as many variables associated with their application. The only sure way to establish the satisfactory operation of a bearing s
23、elected for a specific application is by actual performance in the application. As this is often impractical, another basis is required to estimate the suitability of a particular bearing for a given application. This is the purpose of this standard. This standard specifies the method of calculating
24、 the basic dynamic load rating of rolling bearings within the size ranges shown in the relevant ANSI/ABMA standards, manufactured from contemporary, commonly used, good quality hardened bearing steel in accordance with good manufacturing practice and basically of conventional design as regards the s
25、hape of rolling contact surfaces. This standard also specifies the method of calculating the basic rating life, which is the life associated with 90% reliability, with commonly used high quality material, good manufacturing quality and with conventional operating conditions. In addition, it specifie
26、s the method of calculating adjusted rating life, in which various reliabilities, special bearing properties and specific operating conditions are taken into account by means of life adjustment factors. Furthermore, this standard specifies the method of calculating the basic static load rating and t
27、he static equivalent load for ball bearings within the size ranges shown in the relevant ANSI/ABMA Standards, manufactured from good quality hardened bearing steel, in accordance with good manufacturing practice and basically of conventional design as regards the shape of rolling contact surfaces. 1
28、.2 Life Criterion Even if ball bearings are properly mounted, adequately lubricated, protected from foreign matter, and are not subjected to extreme operating conditions, they can ultimately fatigue. Under ideal conditions, the repeated stresses developed in the contact areas between the ball and th
29、e raceways eventually can result in fatigue of the material which manifests itself as spalling of the load carrying surfaces. In most applications the fatigue life is the maximum useful life of a bearing. This fatigue is the criterion of life used as the basis for the first part of this standard. Fa
30、tigue life calculated in accordance with this standard does not represent the maximum that can be attained by applying all known technology to ball bearing design and application. Neither does it represent the minimum that should be expected of a bearing made by a producer lacking skill and experien
31、ce in the design and manufacture of ball bearings, even though the bearing meets the geometric parameters given below. The calculated fatigue life represents the performance normally expected from high quality bearings made by reputable manufacturers. Manufacturers can supply longer lived bearings b
32、y the application of advanced materials and manufacturing processes. The present standard has evolved as a means for bearing users to specify a reasonable standard of performance for the bearing they wish to purchase. 1.3 Static Load Criterion A static load is a load acting on a non-rotating bearing
33、. Permanent deformations appear in balls and raceways under a static load of moderate magnitude and increase gradually with increasing load. It is often impractical to establish whether the deformations appearing in a bearing in a specific application are permissible by testing the bearing in that a
34、pplication. Other methods are therefore required to establish the suitability of the bearing selected. 2 Experience shows that a total permanent deformation of 0.0001 of the rolling element diameter, at the center of the most heavily loaded ball/raceway contact, can be tolerated in most bearing appl
35、ications without the subsequent bearing operation being impaired. The basic static load rating is, therefore, given a magnitude such that approximately this deformation occurs when the static equivalent load is equal to the load rating. Tests indicate that a load of the magnitude in question may be
36、considered to correspond to a calculated contact stress of; 4,600 MPa (667,000 psi) for self-aligning ball bearings, and 4,200 MPa (609,000 psi) for all other ball bearings at the center of the most heavily loaded rolling element/raceway contact. The formulae and factors for the calculation of the b
37、asic static load ratings are based on these contact stresses. The permissible static equivalent load may be smaller than, equal to or greater than the basic static load rating, depending on the requirements for smoothness of operation and friction, as well as on actual contact surface geometry. Bear
38、ing users without previous experience of these conditions should consult the bearing manufacturers. 2.
