Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a synthetic resin cage in which, even if two ribbon cage halves having deviation in the arrangement of equally spaced pocket parts and coupling plate parts are assembled, a pocket clearance is prevented from being too small.SOLUTION: Coupling plate parts 43 are formed as equally spaced in a circumference direction in two ribbon cage halves 41a, 41b made of a synthetic resin; and a plurality of pocket parts 42 are formed by engaging holes 44 and engaging pawls 45. In one of the hemispheric pocket parts 42, a pair of opposed projections is formed on both ends at an opening on a cage abutting face, while notches for accommodating the projections are formed on both ends of an opening on the cage abutting face of the other pocket part 42. A radius φof the spherical inner face of the pocket part where the notches are formed is configured to be larger than a radius φof the spherical inner face of the pocket part having the projections, and a ball 31 is held in the pocket part with the projections. Thereby, even if the cage is assembled with ribbon cage halves having different spacing in the pocket parts and the coupling parts, a pocket clearance of a given size between the pocket part with projections and the ball can be maintained.

Description

この発明は、ボールを保持する合成樹脂製保持器およびその保持器が組み込まれた玉軸受に関する。   The present invention relates to a synthetic resin cage for holding a ball and a ball bearing incorporating the cage.

電動モータの回転軸のように、高速回転される回転軸を回転自在に支持する高速回転用玉軸受には、発熱を抑制する目的等から合成樹脂製保持器が一般的に採用されている。   Synthetic resin cages are generally employed for high-speed rotating ball bearings that rotatably support a rotating shaft that rotates at high speed, such as a rotating shaft of an electric motor, for the purpose of suppressing heat generation.

高速回転用玉軸受の合成樹脂製保持器として、特許文献１に記載されたものが従来から知られている。この保持器においては、図６に示すように、複数の半球状ポケット部７１が周方向に等間隔に形成され、隣接するポケット部７１間に形成された結合板部７２のそれぞれに係合孔７３と係合爪７４が形成された２枚の同一形状とされた波形保持器半体７０を、係合孔７３に対する係合爪７４の係合によって互いに連結して、対向するポケット部７１間にボール７５を収容するポケット７１ａを形成するようにしている。   As a synthetic resin cage for a ball bearing for high-speed rotation, a cage described in Patent Document 1 has been conventionally known. In this cage, as shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of hemispherical pocket portions 71 are formed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, and each of the coupling plate portions 72 formed between the adjacent pocket portions 71 has an engagement hole. The two corrugated cage halves 70 having the same shape formed with the engaging claw 74 and the engaging claw 74 are connected to each other by the engagement of the engaging claw 74 with respect to the engaging hole 73, so A pocket 71a for accommodating the ball 75 is formed in the inner wall.

特開２００６−２２６４４８号公報JP 2006-226448 A

ところで、上記従来の合成樹脂製保持器においては、ポケット部７１および結合板部７２のそれぞれが等間隔の配置とされているが、成形後の熱収縮量の相違によってポケット部７１および結合板部７２の等間隔の配置にずれが生じる場合があり、その配置にずれがある波形保持器半体７０が組み合わせされて保持器が形成される場合がる。   By the way, in the conventional synthetic resin cage, the pocket portion 71 and the coupling plate portion 72 are arranged at equal intervals, but the pocket portion 71 and the coupling plate portion are different due to the difference in the amount of heat shrinkage after molding. There may be a deviation in the arrangement of 72 at equal intervals, and the holder may be formed by combining the waveform holder halves 70 having a deviation in the arrangement.

このとき、図６に示すように、軸方向で対向する一対の半球状ポケット部７１の球形内面７１ａに周方向の位相ずれδが生じ、ボール７５が本来接触する箇所で接触しなかったり、ポケット隙間が過小となって、ボール７５との接触により異常に発熱し、あるいは、回転時のトルク損失が多くなって円滑に回転させることができなくなる。   At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, a circumferential phase shift δ occurs on the spherical inner surface 71a of the pair of hemispherical pocket portions 71 facing in the axial direction, and the ball 75 does not contact at the place where it originally contacts, The gap becomes too small and abnormal heat is generated due to contact with the ball 75, or torque loss during rotation increases, making it impossible to rotate smoothly.

この発明の課題は、ポケット部と結合板部の等間隔の配置にずれがある２枚の波形保持器半体が組み合わせされた場合でも、ポケット隙間が過小となるようなことがない合成樹脂製保持器および玉軸受を提供することである。   The problem of the present invention is that the pocket gap is not excessively small even when two corrugated cage halves having a gap in the equidistant arrangement between the pocket portion and the coupling plate portion are combined. It is to provide a cage and a ball bearing.

上記の課題を解決するために、この発明に係る合成樹脂製保持器においては、複数の半球状のポケット部が周方向に等間隔に設けられ、隣接するポケット部間に形成された結合板部のそれぞれに係合孔と係合爪とが形成された２枚の合成樹脂製の波形保持器半体からなり、前記係合孔に対する係合爪の係合により２枚の波形保持器半体を互いに結合して、軸方向で対向する一対のポケット部間にボール収容用のポケットを形成する玉軸受用の合成樹脂製保持器において、軸方向で対向する一対の半球状ポケット部のうち、一方の半球状ポケット部の保持器突合せ面での開口部における両端に対向一対のつのを、その半球状ポケット部の球形内面に延長するようにして設け、他方のポケット部の保持器突合せ面での開口部の両端部に、前記つのが収容される切欠部を形成し、その切欠部が形成されたポケット部の球形内面の半径を前記つの付きポケット部の球形内面の半径より大径として、つの付きポケット部でボールを保持するようにした構成を採用したのである。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the synthetic resin cage according to the present invention, a plurality of hemispherical pocket portions are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, and a coupling plate portion formed between adjacent pocket portions. Two corrugated cage halves made of synthetic resin, each of which has an engagement hole and an engaging claw, and the two corrugated cage halves are formed by engaging the engaging claw with the engaging hole. In a synthetic resin cage for ball bearings that form a ball receiving pocket between a pair of pocket portions facing each other in the axial direction, among a pair of hemispherical pocket portions facing in the axial direction, A pair of opposing ones are provided at both ends of the opening in the cage abutting surface of one hemispherical pocket so as to extend to the spherical inner surface of the hemispherical pocket, and the cage abutting surface of the other pocket On both ends of the opening of the A notch to be received is formed, and the radius of the spherical inner surface of the pocket portion where the notch is formed is larger than the radius of the spherical inner surface of the two pocket portions so that the ball is held in the two pocket portions. The configuration was adopted.

また、この発明に係る玉軸受においては、外輪と内輪間にボールと、そのボールを保持する保持器とを組込んだ玉軸受において、前記保持器として、この発明に係る上記合成樹脂製保持器を採用する構成としたのである。   Further, in the ball bearing according to the present invention, in the ball bearing in which a ball and a cage for holding the ball are incorporated between the outer ring and the inner ring, the cage made of the synthetic resin according to the present invention is used as the cage. It was set as the structure which employs.

この発明に係る合成樹脂製保持器においては、上記のように、軸方向で対向する一対の半球状ポケット部の相互において、一方のポケット部の保持器突合せ面での開口部における両端に対向一対のつのを設け、他方のポケット部の保持器突合せ面での開口部の両端部に、上記つのが収容される切欠部を形成し、その切欠部が形成されたポケット部の球形内面の半径をつの付きポケット部の球形内面の半径より大径として、つの付きポケット部でボールを保持するようにしたことにより、ポケット部と結合板部の等間隔の配置にずれがある２枚の波形保持器半体の組み合わせによって対向一対のポケット部間に周方向で位相ずれが発生しても、つの付きポケット部の内面とボール間に一定大きさのポケット隙間が確保されることになってポケット隙間が過小になるというようなことがない。   In the synthetic resin cage according to the present invention, as described above, in the pair of hemispherical pocket portions facing each other in the axial direction, a pair of opposed opposing ends at the opening portion of the cage butting surface of one pocket portion. Is formed at both ends of the opening of the other pocket portion at the abutting surface of the cage, and a notch for accommodating the above is formed, and the radius of the spherical inner surface of the pocket portion where the notch is formed is determined. Two corrugated cages that have a larger gap than the radius of the spherical inner surface of the two pockets, and hold the ball in the pockets with two pockets, resulting in deviations in the equidistant arrangement between the pockets and the coupling plate Even if a phase shift occurs in the circumferential direction between a pair of opposing pockets due to the combination of the half bodies, a pocket gap of a certain size is secured between the inner surface of the pocket with the two pockets and the ball. There is no such thing as that become too small gap.

このため、異常な発熱を抑制し、損失トルクの低減を図り、玉軸受を円滑に回転させることができる。   For this reason, abnormal heat generation can be suppressed, loss torque can be reduced, and the ball bearing can be smoothly rotated.

この発明に係る合成樹脂保持器において、２枚の波形保持器半体のそれぞれを、開口部の両端につのを有するつの付きポケット部と開口部の両端に切欠部を有する切欠部付きポケット部とを周方向に交互に設けた構成とすると、２枚の波形保持器半体を同一の形状とすることができるため、一種類の成形用金型によって２枚の波形保持器半体を成形することができ、コストの低減を図ることができる。   In the synthetic resin retainer according to the present invention, each of the two corrugated retainer halves is provided with a pocket portion having one at both ends of the opening and a pocket portion with a notch having notches at both ends of the opening. Since the two corrugated cage halves can have the same shape, the two corrugated cage halves are formed by one type of molding die. And cost can be reduced.

この発明に係る玉軸受において、ボールをセラミックスとすると、保持器に対するボールの衝突力を低減し、保持器の損傷防止に効果を挙げることができる。   In the ball bearing according to the present invention, if the ball is made of ceramic, the impact force of the ball against the cage can be reduced, and the effect of preventing damage to the cage can be obtained.

この発明においては、上記のように、ポケット部と結合板部の等間隔の配置にずれがある２枚の波形保持器半体の組み合わせによって対向一対のポケット部間に周方向で位相ずれが発生しても、つの付きポケット部の内面とボール間に一定大きさのポケット隙間が確保されることになってポケット隙間が過小になるというようなことがないため、異常な発熱を抑制し、損失トルクの低減を図り、玉軸受を円滑に回転させることができる。   In the present invention, as described above, a phase shift occurs in the circumferential direction between a pair of opposed pocket portions by the combination of two corrugated cage halves having a shift in the equidistant arrangement between the pocket portion and the coupling plate portion. However, since a pocket gap of a certain size is secured between the inner surface of the pocket with one pocket and the ball, the pocket gap does not become too small. The torque can be reduced and the ball bearing can be rotated smoothly.

また、対向一対のつのは他方の波形保持器半体のポケット部に形成された切欠部内に収容されているため、つのが周方向に変形するようなことがなく、つの付きポケット部によってボールを確実に保持することができ、ボールの脱落を確実に防止することができる。   In addition, since the pair of opposed ones is housed in a notch formed in the pocket portion of the other corrugated cage half, the two do not deform in the circumferential direction. The ball can be securely held and the ball can be reliably prevented from falling off.
