In general, rolling bearings fitted with tight fit interference must be close to the shaft shoulder.
Testing method:
(1) Lighting method. That is to say, aim the light at the bearing and shaft shoulder, and judge the light leakage. If there is no light leakage, the installation is correct; if there is even light leakage around the shaft shoulder, it means that the bearing is not close to the shaft shoulder, and pressure should be applied to the bearing to make it close; if there is some light leakage, it means that the bearing installation is inclined. You can use a hammer or copper rod Or the sleeve knocks on the inner ring of the bearing and slowly settles.
(2) Thickness gauge inspection method. The thickness of the thickness gauge should start from 0.03mm. During the inspection, try to insert several places on the entire circumference of the bearing inner ring end face and the shaft shoulder. If there is a gap and it is very uniform, it means the bearing is not installed in place. The bearing inner ring should be pressurized to make it close to the shaft shoulder; The pressure is also not tight, indicating that the rounded corners of the rounded part of the journal are too large, and the bearing is stuck. The rounded corners of the journal should be trimmed to make it smaller; Passed, indicating that it must be disassembled, repaired and reinstalled at this time If the bearing is installed in the bearing housing hole with an interference fit, when the outer ring of the bearing is fixed by the housing hole shoulder, whether the end face of the outer ring and the housing hole shoulder end are tight and whether the installation is correct can also be checked with thickness gauges.
Inspection after installation of the thrust bearing when installing the thrust bearing, check the verticality of the shaft ring and the shaft centerline. The method is to fix the dial indicator on the end surface of the case and make the contact of the indicator rest on the raceway of the bearing shaft ring while rotating the bearing while observing the dial indicator pointer. When the box shell-hole is deep, it can also be inspected with an extended dial gauge. When the thrust bearing is installed correctly, its seat ring can automatically adapt to the rolling of the rolling elements to ensure that the rolling elements are located in the upper and lower ring raceways. If the installation is reversed, not only the bearing will not work properly, but also the mating surfaces will be severely worn. Since the difference between the shaft ring and the seal ring is not obvious, you should be extra careful during assembly and make no mistakes. In addition, there should be a gap of 0.2-0.5mm between the seat ring of the thrust bearing and the bearing seat hole to compensate for the errors caused by inaccurate parts processing and installation. When the center of the bearing ring shifts during operation, this gap can be ensured that it is automatically adjusted to avoid contact and friction and make it run normally. Otherwise, it will cause severe damage to the bearing.
