• 3-point contact state
 High friction
 High heat generation
 Decrease in fatigue life
• Goal: Maintain 2-point contact state
 Use MatLAB simulation
Inner Split Outer Split  Bearing characteristics interpretation
 Introduction
Three-point contact ball bearing (Y-ACBB)
• 초기 접촉각 () 을 가진다 .
AXIAL
• 축 방향 , 반경 방향 하중을 동시에 지지할 수 있다 .
• 양쪽 축 방향 하중을 지지할 수 있다 .
RADIAL • 내륜과 외륜에 shim 이 있어 3 점 접촉이 가능 .
• 고속 회전에 적합한 베어링 .

 Contact Point with rotational speed

1. What is loading
condition? Fx and Fz?
2. What is shim size?
3. If you could give 2D
Inner-split Y-ACBB
reference for this is better, Outer-split Y-ACBB
in my opinion.
