In this study, we designed and manufactured a large angular contact ball bearing (LACBB) with low deformation using JIS-SUJ2 steel and analyzed changes in its structural characteristics and chemical composition upon heat treatment. The bearing was produced by hot forging and heat treatment including a quenching and tempering (Q/T) process, and its properties were analyzed using 4 mm thick specimens. A difference in the size distribution of the carbide in the outer and inner parts of the bearing was observed and it was confirmed that large and non-uniform carbide was distributed in the inner part of the bearing. After heat treatment, the hardness value of the outer part increased from 13.4 HRC to 61 HRC and the inner part increased from 8.0 HRC to 59.7 HRC. As a result of X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, the volume fraction of the retained austenite contained in the outer part was calculated to be 3.5~4.8 % and the inner part was calculated to be 3.6~5.0 %. The surface chemical composition and the content of chemical bonds were quantified through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and a decrease in C=C bonds and an increase in Fe-C bonds were confirmed.

This paper reports the results of an experimental examination using X-rays to test annealing materials for lapped bearing steel (STB2), to confirm the validity of the weighted averaging analysis method. The distribution behavior for the sin diagram and the presence or absence of differences in the peak method, half-value breadth method, and centroid method were investigated. When lapping the annealed bearing steel (STB2) material, a residual stress state with a non-directional steep gradient appeared in the surface layer, and it was found that the weighted averaging analysis method was effective. If there is a steep stress gradient, the sin diagram is curved and the diffraction intensity distribution curve becomes asymmetric, resulting in a difference between the peak method, half-value breadth method, and centroid method. This phenomenon was evident when the stress gradient was more than 2~3 kg/mm2/μm. In this case, if the position of the diffraction line is determined using the centroid method and the weighted averaging analysis method is applied, the stress value on the surface and the stress gradient under the surface can be obtained more accurately. When the stress gradient becomes a problem, since the curvature of the sin diagram appears clearly in the region of sin > 0.5, it is necessary to increase the inclination angle  as much as possible. In the case of a lapping layer, a more accurate value can be obtained by considering  in the weighted averaging analysis method. In an isotropic biaxial residual stress state, the presence or absence of  can be determined as the presence or absence of strain for sin≈0.4.

Hydrogen infrastructure, for instance, such as hydrogen stations, supply chain network, is important in society of hydrogen economy. Special alloy are frequently used to prevent the hydrogen embrittlement in hydrogen vehicles, semiconductor factories and so on. Because special alloy including Monel material has high strength and high hardness, it is known as the hard-to-cut or roll material. This paper aims to investigate the characteristics and safety on bearing and shaft, which consist of key parts of rolling unit, through structural analysis. As the results, it showed that the bearing was weaker than shaft. Further the bearing was safe up to 20.4 ton, which was about 2 times of maximum of roller reaction force in case of considering as static load. However, the bearing was safe up to 10.2 ton in case of considering as repeated load.

구조물의 지진 피해 감소를 위한 내진 시스템 중에서 면진 시스템은 효율적으로 내진 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 구조 시스템이다. 면진 시스템은 지반과 구조물을 분리시키는 만큼 안전성이 뛰어나지만, 사용되는 장치의 계열에 따라 연직 및 수평 하중에 대한 지지력과 요구변형량에 대한 복원력이 부족하여 파손이 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 면진 시스템의 성능 개선을 위해 기존 연구에서 제안한 면진 장치의 지지력과 복원력을 향상시킨 고무 마찰 베어링 장치에 대하여 실험 및 해석을 통한 성능 검증 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 고무 마찰 베어링 장치의 설계 상세를 재정립하고 요구 성능에 따른 구조 실험을 수행하여 장치 특성을 검증하였다. 또한, 실험 결과의 신뢰성 향상을 위한 유한요소해석을 수행하여 실험 결과와 유사한 성능 수 준의 장치 특성을 확인하였다.

Load carrying capacity(LCC) can be reduced from its design value as a result of film thickness change when a journal is misaligned and some part of bearing is unintentionally translated. In this study, the numerical solution of the incompressible Reynolds equation was obtained by using the finite difference method and mass conservation algorithm (JFO boundary condition) with periodic pressure distribution in circumferential direction to analyze the change of LCC due to journal misalignment and step change of film thickness in axial direction for a journal bearing of vertical pumps. Smallest LCC in each eccentricity ratio is obtained as two angular positions are changed – an angular position where misalignment occurs, and another angular position where the axial step takes place while the degree of misalignment is fixed at 90%. Compared with the reaction force of plain journal bearing, the LCC reduced as much as 26.7% due to geometric effects of journal bearing at the eccentricity ratio of 0.9, while the step height is no higher than 0.1 times of bearing clearance.

In the power steering systems used for automobiles, because of its small size and low noise, a balanced type hydraulic vane pump is mainly used as a power source. Therefore it is requested to research on the lubrication characteristics of a oil hydraulic vane pump which is the key part to improve its performance. The performance of a oil hydraulic vane pump is influenced by the lubrication characteristics of the critical sliding components. Thus, lubrication characteristics between the shaft and the journal bearing have to be researched for the design and the performance improvement of a oil hydraulic vane pump. Therefore, in this paper, it is theoretically investigated that the lubrication characteristics between the shaft and the journal bearing of a balanced type oil hydraulic vane pump for power steering systems. The results demonstrate that lubrication characteristics are significantly influenced by the clearance between the shaft and the journal bearing.

갭색법(gap & sag method)은 선박 건조과정에서 축을 조립하기 전 최종적으로 축이 축계정렬 설계치와 동일한 위치에 거치되었는지의 여부를 확인하기 위해 사용되고 있는 방법이며, 조립 전 프로펠러축을 기준축으로 하여 양 축의 플랜지에서 축 자중에 의해 발생하는 갭색값을 통해 나머지 축계의 위치를 순차적으로 확정해 나간다. 만일 설계치와 다르게 기준축이 거치되는 경우 연쇄적으로 나머지 축의 거치에 영향을 주게 된다. 또한, 축 조립 후 검증과정에서 측정된 베어링 반력이 설령 설계치를 만족하더라도 선미관 후부측에서의 프로펠러축과 베어링간 상대적경사각을 추정할 수 없게 됨으로써 결과적으로 축계의 안정성에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 실제 선미관 베어링 발열 및 개방검사 사례를 통해 선미관 베어링 유효지지점에 관한 이론계산 및 실측치분석 연구를 수행하고 이를 바탕으로 축계 정렬오차를 최소화하기 위한 축계 시공방법을 제안하였다.

Recently, the interest in the development of Oilless bearings, which is a kind of sliding bearing, has been attracting to industry. Oilless bearings are mainly used in areas where fluid lubrication is difficult to apply because of large contact area. The purpose of this study is to develop products with higher load and durability compared to the conventional oilless bearing. For this purpose, the optimal steel sheet was obtained and the porosity evaluation was carried out by evaluating bronze sinterability for various steel sheets. The conclusion obtained is as follows.; It was found that steel plate suitable for bronze powder plate is SPCC CR (Cold Rolled). The average porosity of KAG-23, KAG-23G and PBF-8 specimens was 16.8%, 17.8% and 22.1%, respectively, indicating that the porosity of PBF-8 specimen was the highest. As the number of rolling increases, the surface porosity decreases rapidly.

베어링은 많은 회전체에서 사용되는 핵심부품으로, 예기치 않은 고장을 방지하기 위해 많은 연구가 집중되고 있다. 이때 중요한 것은 되도록 초기에 건전성 상태를 잘 나타내는 적절한 특징신호를 추출하는 것이다. 그러나 기존의 연구들은 주로 진단관점에서 특징신호를 추출하여 고장예지에는 적합하지 않은 측면이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위 해 베어링 고장 주파수의 에너지와 시간 사이의 상관계수 가중 합을 이용하여 베어링 수명 예측에 용이한 특징신호를 추출 하는 방법을 개발하였다. 그 결과 일반적으로 고장진단에서 많이 사용되고 있는 특징신호인 RMS에 비해서 결함 초기부터 단조로운 증가 경향의 특징신호를 추출함을 알 수 있었다. 이를 입증하기 위해서 NASA Ames에서 제공한 IMS bearing 진 동 데이터를 이용하였고 제시한 특징신호와 일반적인 RMS와 의 거동을 비교하여 유효성을 검증하였다.

The object of this paper is to examine the optimum sintering condition which have excellent mechanical properties compared to the conventional oilless bearing. It is shown that the sintering rate is the most excellent at 850°C, especially KAB-23, KAB-23G, PBF-8 specimens. With increasing the nitrogen injection rate, the apparent porosity increased gradually. In contrast, with increasing the hydrogen injection rate, the apparent porosity decreased gradually. It is shown that the apparent porosity is very useful in the range of nitrogen injection rate 2Nm 3 and hydrogen injection rate 10Nm 3 .

The object of this study is to improve the straightness in tubular shaft production. Die bearings of 1, 2 and 3 were inserted onto the lower die, respectively. In this study, the tubular shafts at the stage 5 were modelled as the standard and error cases. The error case assumes the production error of raw material. The coefficient of friction was set to the Oil_Cold conditions as referring to the analysis library. In the results, the effective stress was observed homogeneously on the distribution at yoke top in standard case. However, the effective stress was observed on the distribution at long section of yoke in case of the raw material with error. The metal flow line was stretched straight in standard case. On the other hand, the metal flow line was bent in all of error cases. The biggest displacement occurred when only one die bearing was applied. The smallest displacement occurred when two die bearings were applied in lower die.

해양사고의 건수는 연평균 1,700회 이상이며 기관손상사고는 전체의 31.5%이다. 기관손상사고 중에서도 추진축계와 관련된 사고는 과다한 부하에 기인한 베어링의 마멸로 발생하며 정상운항에 큰 피해를 줄 수 있는 매우 중요한 요인이다. 이 연구에서는 선박의 추진축계 베어링 발열 사고를 사례분석을 통해 고찰하였다. 그 결과 축계정렬불량이 주 원인으로 분석되었고 이에 대한 주기적인 점검으로 사고를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
