TAPERED
ROLLER BEARINGS
Tapered
roller bearing are designed so the tapered vertex of the
raceway surfaces of the inner and outer rings and rollers
converge at one point on the centerline of the bearing.
Due to this design feature, rollers move along the center
of compound force of the inner and outer raceway surfaces
inner ring. A large variety of these bearing, including
single, double, and four row arrangements, are in use both
in metric and inch series.
In general, pressed cages are used in tapered roller bearing.
However for large sized bearing machined or pin type cages
are also used; for small sized bearing molded resin cages
are also used.
If bearing load is light during operation or the ratio of
axial to radial load for duplex and double row bearing exceeds
the value of "e", slipping develops between the
rollers and raceways sometimes resulting in smearing. The
mass of rollers and cages particularly tends to be large
for large tapered roller bearing. For details please contact
