Everything you want to know about bearing seats is here. Bearing seats, also known as bearing housing, bearing chock, bearing shell, etc. Bearing seats are mechanical parts used to support and fix rolling bearings or sliding bearings. The design features of bearing seats include compact structure, sensitive rotation, and easy installation and maintenance. 1. Classification of bearing seats There are four main types of bearing seats.
Bearing seat: There are mounting holes at the bottom for easy installation. Commonly used in industrial machinery.
Spherical bearing with seat: The internal bearing is replaceable and has good self-adjusting performance. Mostly used in agricultural machinery and conveying equipment.
Split bearing seat: Split design, easy maintenance. Commonly used in large mechanical equipment.
Sliding bearing seat: Suitable for low-speed, heavy-loaded large equipment.
2. Materials of bearing seats
Common bearing seat materials are generally the following.
Cast iron: Good wear resistance and strong toughness. Mostly used in general industry.
Steel: High strength and impact resistance. Mostly used in high-load, high-speed applications.
Alloy: corrosion resistance, good wear resistance, used in special environments.
3. Application industries of bearing seats
Manufacturing: machine tools, conveyor belts, gearbox applications, etc.
Automotive industry: axles, engines, etc.
Engineering machinery: excavators, cranes, etc.
4. How to choose a suitable bearing seat
Clearly define the operating conditions, loads, speeds, temperatures, environments, etc. of the application equipment
Confirm the material of the bearing seat according to the working environment
The design of the bearing seat should be based on the important reference factors of easy installation and maintenance
