Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of needle roller bearing assemblies.
Background
It is known practice to use needle roller bearing assemblies in many industrial, automotive or aerospace applications. Such assemblies typically include an inner ring having a cylindrical outer surface forming an inner raceway, an outer ring having a cylindrical inner surface forming an outer raceway, and a plurality of cylindrical pins radially disposed between the inner and outer raceways, the two rings being coaxial. One of the main advantages of this type of assembly is that it has an optimum radial compactness due to the small diameter of the needle, while being able to support relatively large radial loads. However, in the construction of the assembly, it is necessary to provide means for ensuring that the needle is held between the rings in both axial directions.
To meet this need, it is known practice to provide a washer mounted axially between a shoulder of the inner ring, which projects radially with respect to the inner raceway, and the lateral surface of the outer ring. However, the angle of connection between the shoulder and the inner raceway is affected by the load, and more specifically the region susceptible to tension. This may lead to faster fatigue of the inner ring at this location, with a significant risk of breakage and a shorter service life.
It is known practice to provide rounded corners with a connection radius that is as large as possible. However, providing a satisfactory shape for the fillet is a particularly complicated matter in view of the compactness, weight and radial loads that need to be supported.
Disclosure of Invention
The present invention seeks to remedy the above-mentioned drawbacks.
More specifically, the present invention aims to provide a bearing assembly which is cheaper, easy to manufacture, has an optimum compactness capable of supporting significant radial loads, and has a longer service life.
The invention relates to a bearing assembly with cylindrical rolling elements, comprising an inner ring provided with a cylindrical outer surface forming an inner raceway, an outer ring provided with a cylindrical inner surface forming an outer raceway, and a plurality of cylindrical rolling elements arranged radially between the inner and outer raceways, the two rings being coaxial along a central axis.
According to the invention, the inner ring comprises at one axial end of the inner raceway: an annular shoulder projecting relative to the inner raceway and directed in a radial direction away from the central axis, a fillet being defined between the annular shoulder and the inner raceway in the form of a circular arc. The outer ring comprises, at one axial end of the outer raceway, an annular shoulder projecting with respect to the outer raceway and directed radially towards the central axis, said annular shoulder of the outer ring being axially housed between the annular shoulder of the inner ring and the cylindrical rolling elements, said annular shoulder of the outer ring having a first lateral face facing the outside of the bearing assembly and axially facing the lateral face of the annular shoulder of the inner ring, said annular shoulder of the outer ring having a second lateral face facing the inside of the bearing assembly and forming an axial abutment surface for the rolling elements. Said first lateral face of the annular shoulder of the outer ring is provided with an annular chamfer in the immediate vicinity of said fillet defined on the inner ring.
According to further advantageous but not mandatory features of the invention, such an assembly may also comprise the following features, alone or in any technically feasible combination:
the inner ring is provided with a fixed washer, firmly mounted on said inner ring, at the other axial end of the inner raceway and on an axially opposite side of the annular shoulder, said washer having a lateral surface facing towards the interior of the bearing assembly and forming an axial abutment surface for the rolling elements.
The outer ring includes an annular groove at the other axial end of the outer raceway and on an axially opposite side of the annular shoulder, the annular groove retaining a portion of the retaining washer.
The outer ring includes an annular lip radially surrounding a portion of the retaining washer.
