Research on H7006C Angular Contact Ball Bearing Slipping Behavior under Operating Conditions

During operation, angular contact ball bearings exhibit slipping behavior, which accelerates bearing wear and reduces the bearing's overall service life. This paper focuses on studying the degree of slippage and the variation in slippage rate in the H7006C angular contact ball bearing under constant inner ring speed and angular acceleration conditions. To achieve this objective, the study defines the contact between rolling elements, inner and outer rings, and the cage as flexible. A rigid-flexible coupling slippage dynamic simulation model is then developed, which utilizes cage slippage rate as the evaluation index. The analysis method of cage slippage rate change is established through the Gaussian function fitting method. By comparing simulation and testing results, the effectiveness of the analysis method of angular contact ball bearing slip behavior is validated. On this basis, the influence law of bearing speed and acceleration conditions on the slipping behavior of angular contact ball bearings is further studied. The results of the study show that as the axial load increases at different inner ring speeds, the cage speed increases until it reaches a stable state, while the cage slip rate continuously decreases until reaching a stable state. The higher the inner ring speed, the greater the axial load required for the bearing to enter the steady state. Under different angular accelerations, the cage speed increases with time; when the cage speed increases to stable and constant, the cage slip rate decreases to a stable state, and the higher the angular acceleration, the longer it takes for the bearing to enter the stable state.
