Automotive bearings, as key components supporting transmission parts, ensure smooth vehicle operation through rolling contact between components. Its characteristics include low sliding resistance, low power consumption, and easy starting.
What is the function of car bearings – driving
Although automotive bearings may seem insignificant in the overall vehicle, they are closely linked to the reliability, safety, and comfort of the vehicle.
Bearings have a significant impact on vehicle performance. In terms of reliability, once the bearings are damaged, the driving of the entire vehicle will be affected. In terms of safety, the installation position of certain bearings such as wheel hub bearings is crucial, supporting the weight of the entire vehicle. Once they fail, it will threaten driving safety. In terms of comfort, bearings not only affect the smooth operation of vehicles, but poor quality bearings may also cause significant noise.
For such critical automotive components, the following are recommendations for the use and maintenance of automotive bearings:
1. Ensure that the working load of the vehicle is within the rated range to avoid bearing overload caused by overloading, which may lead to early failure or more serious safety accidents.
2. Prohibit the shaft from bearing abnormal impact loads to extend its service life.
3. Regularly check the condition of the bearings, paying attention to any abnormal noise or sudden temperature rise in certain areas.
4. Regularly and quantitatively add lubricating oil or grease to ensure the normal operation of the bearings.
5. According to the usage of the vehicle, replace the lubricating oil at least once every six months and conduct a detailed inspection of the bearings to prevent potential problems.
6. During maintenance, the bearing should be cleaned and the condition of its inner and outer cylindrical surfaces, raceway surfaces, rolling elements, and cage should be carefully observed to determine whether it is suitable for continued use.
