14.2.1 Rolling contact bearing
Rolling contact bearings are also called anti-friction bearing due to its low frictioncharacteristics. These bearings are used for radial load, thrust load andcombination of thrust and radial load. These bearings are extensively used dueto its relatively lower price, being almost maintenance free and for its operationalease. However, friction increases at high speeds for rolling contact bearings andit may be noisy while running. These bearings are of two types,
Ball bearing
and
Roller bearing
14.2.2 Ball bearing
A typical ball bearing is shown the Fig.14.2.1. The figure shown on the right side,with nomenclature, is the schematic representation of the actual bearing.
