SELF-ALIGNING BALL BEARINGS

SELF-ALIGNING BALL BEARINGS Bore Diameter 5 – 110 mm ··············· B78

DESIGN, TYPES, AND FEATURES

The outer ring has a spherical raceway and its center of curvature
coincides with that of the bearing; therefore, the axis of the inner ring, balls
and cage can deflect to some extent around the bearing center. This type is
recommended when the alignment of the shaft and housing is difficult and
when the shaft may bend. Since the contact angle is small, the axial load
capacity is low.
Pressed steel cages are usually used.

PROTRUSION AMOUNT OF BALLS

Among self-aligning ball bearings, there are some in which the balls
protrude from the side face as shown below. This protrusion amount b1 is
listed in the following table.

PERMISSIBLE MISALIGNMENT
The permissible misalignment of self-aligning ball bearings is
approximately 0.07 to 0.12 radian (4° to 7°) under normal loads. However,
depending on the surrounding structure, such an angle may not be possible.
Use care in the structural design.
