What is an eccentric locking bearing?
The eccentric locking collar bearing is mainly suitable for applications where the direction of rotation is inconvenient. Rotate the locking ring on the inner ring extension in the direction of rotation and tighten the hexagon socket screw on the eccentric sleeve to lock the collar and bearing to the shaft.
How does an eccentric bearing work?
Eccentric: Provides a collar with an eccentric lip that mates with an eccentric lip on the bearing inner ring. Turning the collar while holding the shaft and inner ring results in a “cam” action that locks the collar and inner ring to the shaft. (Eccentric lock is not recommended for reversing rotation applications.)
Which way does a bearing collar lock?
Tightening the lock collar in the direction of shaft rotation will self tighten if the bearing slips on the shaft. If you tighten the collar opposite shaft rotation, then any bearing slippage will loosen the collar.
What is eccentric shaft?
The eccentric shaft is an essential part of the fully variable valve lift control. The valve lift changes continuously from maximum to almost zero by rotating / pivoting the eccentric (shaft) by means of an electric motor.
What is eccentric bushing?
Eccentric bushings are used to hold our V-Groove Bearings (REV-29-1014) for linear motion applications. The hole is drilled off-center of the bearing axis so by rotating the bushing on its mounting bolt, the clearance between the wheel and track can be adjusted.
Where is eccentric used?
It is used most often in steam engines, and used to convert rotary motion into linear reciprocating motion to drive a sliding valve or pump ram. To do so, an eccentric usually has a groove at its circumference closely fitted a circular collar (eccentric strap).
What is the purpose of eccentric shaft?
An eccentric shaft rotated by a gear and pinion produces the oscillating movement of the main shaft. The eccentricity causes the cone head to oscillate between the open side setting (o.s.s.) and closed side setting (c.s.s.).
How do you put a lock nut on a bearing?
Screw both bolts into the side face of the lock nut and tighten them….Locking the bearing
- Slide the lock washer onto the thread until it touches the bearing.
- Tighten the nut firmly against the lock washer and bearing with a hook or impact spanner, making sure to not over-tighten the nut.
What is an eccentric locking collar bearing?
Description: Y- bearings with an eccentric locking collar are intended primarily for use in applications where the direction of rotation is constant. On one side of the bearing inner ring is an eccentric extension that fits the locking collar. Turning the locking collar on the.
What are eccentric bearings?
Eccentric bearing is cycloid reducer inside a very important bearing. The original eccentric bearings have three parts: an eccentric sleeve and two 502 series consisting of eccentric cylindrical roller bearing ring and in the integration into one, forming an eccentric bearing.
What is eccentric collar lock?
The locking collar has a counterbored recess made purposely eccentric to the collar bore. When assembled on the shaft, this eccentric recess engages, or mates, with an eccentric cam end of a bearing’s inner ring. The collar is engaged on the inner cam of the bearing. This assembly grips the shaft tightly with a positive binding action…
