Definitions of some important terms related to Rolling contact bearing + Static Load Rating + Static Equivalent Load + Dynamic Load Rating + Rated Bearing Life + Dynamic Equivalent Load + Load life Relationship Static Load Rating of Rolling Contact Bearings * The basic static load rating is defined as the static radial load (in case of radial ball or roller bearings) or axial load (in case of thrust ball or roller bearings) which corresponds to a total permanent deformation of the rolling element or race, at the most heavily stressed contact, equal to 0.0001 times the ball (or roller) diameter. It is represented by Co. Static Equivalent Load for Rolling Contact Bearings Jad may be defined as the static radial toad (in esned bail (or roller) and race contact Shar which occurs under the actual conditions of loading. Me Fat Yo Facand where Fa = Radial load, = Axial or thrust load, Mo = Radiol load factor and Yo= Axial or thrust load factor. According to 15 : 3824 ~ 1984, the values of X, and Yp for different bearings are given in the ‘ONE Table 16.6 page 385 example: FIs axial load and F, ix the redial load acting simultaneously on a radial ‘Bearing and produces deflection x In the rolling element or race. Now If the Identical radial bearing is subjected to a pure radial load Po and this toad Po ‘produces same daflection in the rolling element or race. Then this pure radial fowd Pols called equivalent static radial load for that bearing. Dynamic Load Rating of Rolling Contact Bearings The basic dynamic load rating is defined as the constant stationary radial load (in case of radial ball or roller bearings) or constant axial load (in case of thrust ball or roller bearings) which a group of apparently identical bearings with stationary outer ring can endure for a rating life of one million revolutions with only 10 percent failure. It is represented by C.
