Definitions
- the invention relates to a rolling body, namely balls, rolling bearings having a shape memory alloy, in particular a nickel-titanium alloy, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- US Pat. No. 6,886,986 B1 discloses antifriction bearings made of a nickel-titanium alloy, namely Nitinol 60. To produce the rolling elements, a ceramic casting mold is used. After casting, additional processing steps are provided which include polishing the nitinol beads.
- Nickel-titanium alloys are distinguished by high corrosion resistance combined with high hardness, which makes them fundamentally suitable for rolling elements in bearings which are operated under unfavorable environmental conditions, in particular lack of lubrication and / or exposure to aggressive media.
- the invention has for its object to extend the applications of rolling bearings, namely ball bearings, with rolling elements of a shape memory alloy over the cited prior art. Description of the invention
- the rolling bearing has in known per se basic structure rolling elements of a shape memory alloy, which roll between two raceways of bearing rings or between a raceway of a bearing ring and a career located directly on a shaft, wherein at least one raceway is grooved.
- a raceway of the rolling bearing can also be formed directly by a housing component.
- the balls contact the groove-shaped raceway with an osculation of at least 108%. By oscillation in this case, the ratio between the radius of the groove forming the track and the radius of the ball understood.
- the groove-shaped raceway bearing part of the rolling bearing for example, a nickel-titanium alloy is suitable.
- the alloy has a weight percent nickel content greater than 55%.
- the alloy Nitinol 60 (60% nickel, 40% titanium) is suitable for the production of the bearing ring.
- the osculation has a relatively high value.
- this effect is low, since such alloys have a significantly lower modulus of elasticity than steel. Due to the high elastic compliance of shape memory alloys, in particular nickel-titanium alloys, in comparison to steel, the load-reducing effect of a relative to the dimensioning of the balls is reduced. The radius of the groove, in which the balls roll, is overcompensated.
- the balls of the rolling bearing are made of a material whose modulus of elasticity is less than 60% of the modulus of elasticity of the bearing ring on which the balls roll.
- the modulus of elasticity of the balls is at most 120 GPa.
- the bearing rings preferably have a modulus of elasticity of over 200 GPa. Due to the associated with the increase in the value of the oscillation reduction of the contact surface between the bearing ring and rolling elements, the friction and thus the heat in the bearing is reduced in comparison to conventional bearings with closer osculation, especially when operating with low loads.
- the bearing with a value of at least 108%, which has a particularly wide osculation, is therefore particularly suitable for operation under unfavorable lubrication conditions and thus in many cases also unfavorable conditions of heat dissipation.
- the mentioned minimum amount of osculation of 108% applies in preferred embodiments for the inner ring of a roller bearing designed as a deep groove ball bearing, while the outer ring of such a ball bearing has a osculation of at least 1 10%. Also in embodiments of the rolling bearing which have an osculation of more than 108% on the inner ring, a further greater osculation is preferably given on the outer ring.
- the value of the osculation on the outer ring is, for example, more than 1.05 times the value of the osculation on the inner ring.
- the surface hardness of the rolling elements is in a preferred embodiment more than 58 HRC, with hardness values up to 62 HRC can be achieved.
- the rolling elements of the rolling bearing can be subjected to a heat treatment. Further advantages of the rolling elements made of a shape memory alloy are their compatibility with lubricants, their corrosion resistance and their wear resistance.
- the bearing rings of the rolling bearing are made of steel, for example, from conventional bearing steel or from a corrosion-resistant steel. Steel which is available under the name Cronidur (X 30 CrMoN 15 1, material number 1 .4108) has proven particularly suitable.
- a preferred application of the rolling bearing are fast-moving and media-lubricated bearings.
- Under a media lubrication is generally understood to act on the Wälz. lake with a medium which is not intended primarily for lubrication. This may be, for example, a fluid which is conveyed in a pump equipped with the roller bearing or a compressor.
- the use of a roller bearing under water, especially in seawater, which is not or only partially sealed, is also considered to be the medium-lubricated operation of a roller bearing.
- Fig. 2 is a diagram of the relationship between osculation and pressure in the rolling bearing according to the invention on the one hand and a
- FIG. 1 shows a roller bearing, designated overall by the reference numeral 1, which has two bearing rings 2, 3, namely an outer ring 2 and an inner ring 3, between which rolling elements 4 roll.
- the rolling elements 4 are formed as balls of Nitinol 60 (60% Ni, 40% Ti).
- the groove-shaped raceways of the bearing rings 2, 3, on which the balls 4 roll, are identified by the reference numeral 5.
- a comparative race 6 is indicated, which snuggles closer to the ball 4 and corresponds to the contour of a bearing ring of an unclaimed conventional rolling bearing, namely a radial deep groove ball bearing.
- the radius of the ball 4 is designated in Figure 1 with r K , the radius of the raceway 5 with r L.
- the ratio between the raceway radius r L and the ball radius r K is significantly more than 108% and is defined as osculation.
- the osculation of the rolling bearing 1 is exceptionally far. In the mechanically unloaded or slightly loaded state, as shown in FIG. 1, this results in a considerably smaller contact surface between the rolling body 4 and the raceway 5 than bearings with a narrower osculation.
- the rolling bearing 1 Due to the material of the rolling elements 4 and the described geometric relationships, the rolling bearing 1 is characterized by a particularly high corrosion resistance and wear resistance, a variety of lubricants are used and even an unlubricated operation within limited speed and load ranges is possible.
