Spherical roller bearings are double-row, non-separable bearings consisting of solid outer rings with concave channels, solid inner rings and barrel rollers with cages. Inner rings have cylindrical or conical bores.

The rollers, which are in a symmetrical position, easily align themselves with the inner surface of the concave outer ring. As a result, shaft deflections and bearing seating surface misalignments are compensated.

The double row spherical roller bearing design, located between the spherical rollers, is a design that can move within the outer ring on the double roller row. It has the capacity to carry large loads with its 2° angle. Double row spherical roller bearings, which are among the roller bearings; It consists of cover, outer ring, rolling element, cage, inner ring and cover. In choosing the right bearing, the first consideration is the clearance selection in large machines, axial clearance, number of revolutions, direction of loads and working conditions.

Double Row Spherical Roller Bearing Working Principle

Spherical roller bearings, which are among the self-aligning ball bearing models, have a special spherical outer ring designed for the ball to rotate in the outer ring in double rows. It has the feature of self-adjustment in load levels. It is used in industrial machines where shaft deviation and alignment problems occur. These types of bearings used in radial forces have an important role in bearing alignment. When designing bearing models, first the usage area, machine size, load capacity and conditions are evaluated and the most suitable bearing model is determined for the machine.
