Abstract

The problem of increasing the reliability of detecting defects, both in new rolling bearings and the ones having already been in operation is current. The article describes the physical foundations of vibration of rolling bearings, caused by the different dimensions of the rolling elements and increased microwaves of the rings. A classification of rolling bearing defects was proposed, as well as calculation formulas for vibration frequencies corresponding to the indicated defects. It is shown that the vibration level at the overturning frequency depends on the gap size and the rotor mass. As an example, possible defects of rolling bearing No.310 were considered and their vibration frequencies were calculated. The frequency range in which defects of the rings and rolling elements appear was installed. An explanation of the reasons for the occurrence of high-frequency vibration was given. The combination of defects in the rolling elements of different dimensions and imbalance in the rotor causes the intensive development of microshells on the rolling bearing rings. Examples of experimental vibroacoustic characteristics were given to illustrate the physical processes of vibration in rolling bearings with various defects.

Summary

Introduction

The first works on the use of vibration for detecting defects in induction motors appeared in the 70s of the last century [1,2,3,4]. They tried and still do trying to diagnose a rolling bearing by a general level in the range of 10-200 Hz, vibration measurement in microns [5]. The authors of many works [810] derive formulas based on the physics of bearings This takes into account the contact angle of the rolling elements. The reliability of detecting defects according to the existing methods is no more than 50%, since these methods do not take into consideration the physical processes of vibration
