The difference between angular contact ball bearings and tapered roller bearings

The difference between angular contact ball bearings and tapered roller bearings

Answer:

1, rolling is not the same. Angular contact is ball, and tapered roller is cylindrical2, the load is not the same. Angular contact generally only accepts radial force, and the tapered roller can be both axial and radial
Angular contact ball bearing:[1] (Angular, Contact, Ball, Bearings) can simultaneously bear radial load and axial load. Able to work at a higher speed. The greater the contact angle is, the higher axial bearing capacity is. High precision and high speed bearings usually take 15 degrees of contact angle. The contact angle will increase when the axial force is applied.Tapered roller bearings can be separated by the inner ring and roller, cage together composed of components and the outer ring, respectively, tapered roller bearings installed. The modified contact line at the roller and raceway contact reduces stress concentration. Tapered roller bearings can withstand large radial loads and axial loads. Since the tapered roller bearings can only transmit one-way axial loads, it is necessary to have another cone roller bearing symmetrically installed to deliver the axial load in the opposite direction
Angular contact ball bearings (Angular, Contact, Ball, Bearings) can simultaneously bear radial load and axial load. Able to work at a higher speed. The greater the contact angle is, the higher axial bearing capacity is. High precision and high speed bearings usually take 15 degrees of contact angle. The contact angle will increase when the axial force is applied.The tapered roller bearings belong to separate bearings, and the inner and outer rings of the bearing have tapered raceways. The bearings are divided into single row, double row and four row tapered roller bearings according to the number of rollers arranged. Single row tapered roller bearings can bear radial loads and axial loads in a single direction. When the bearing is subjected to radial load, an axial component is produced, so that when another bearing is required to bear the axial force in the opposite direction, it will be balanced.For tapered roller bearings and angular contact bearings, the roller is different, one is the sphere (point contact), one is roller (line contact), of course, the line contact, bear large load, strong rigidity. Angular contact is mainly subjected to axial load; tapered roller bearings are subjected to axial and radial loads and carry one-way axial loads. Angular contact bearings are generally applied to parts of low pressure and high speed, such as pumps. Vertical washing, etc.. Tapered roller bearings are generally used in relatively low speed, high pressure parts, such as the main shaft of motor vehicles
