Angular Contanct Ball Bearings
Key Features
The raceways of the inner and outer rings of ACBB can have relative displacement in the direction of the horizontal axis, that can withstand combined loads — that is, radial and axial loads acting simultaneously. The axial-load carrying capacity of ACBB increases as the contact angle increases. The contact angle is defined as the angle between the line between the contact point of the steel ball and the raceway and the vertical line of the bearing axis on the radial plane. The load is transferred from one raceway to another along the line connecting the contact points of the steel ball and the raceway.
The four-point contact ball bearing is a single-row ACBB, which is a separable bearing. The steel ball contacts the ring at four points, and the contact angle is 35°. It can bear radial load and axial load in two directions or combined radial and axial load.
Benefits
- High load carrying capacity
The lower shoulder enables a large number of balls to be incorporated in the bearing, giving it a relatively high load carrying capacity. - Good running properties
Rapid accelerations and decelerations are possible. - Easy mounting of universally matchable bearings
No adjustment is needed for correct internal clearance or preload. - Less axial space
Can be used for applications where two single row angular contact ball bearings arranged back-to-back take up too much axial space.
- Accommodates radial as well as axial loads in either direction
- Accommodates tilting moments
- Stiff bearing arrangement
- Accommodates axial loads in both directions
- Less axial space
These bearings take up considerably less axial space than double row bearings. - High load carrying capacity
A large number of balls are incorporated, giving the bearing its high load carrying capacity. - Separable design
The split inner ring leads to easier mounting and dismounting of the bearing. - Improved oil flow
- Limited inner ring deformation when subjected to high clamping forces
Applications
Here are examples of applications in which angular contact ball bearings might be used:
- Industrial pumps
- Industrial gearboxes
- Renewable energy
- Compressors
- Industrial electric motors & generators
- Trucks, trailers and buses
