What is the function of the crusher thrust bearing？

The main function of the thrust bearing of the crusher is to support the empty eccentric shaft, reduce the running resistance of the empty eccentric shaft, and ensure a reasonable clearance between the sleeve and the main shaft to avoid the "flying car" phenomenon. ‌

 

The application of thrust bearings in crushers involves their specific structure and function. First of all, the thrust bearing can effectively support the empty eccentric shaft through its design, which not only supports the normal operation of the crusher, but also improves the operating efficiency of the equipment by reducing the running resistance of the empty eccentric shaft. In addition, the installation accuracy of the thrust bearing directly affects the meshing clearance of the bevel gear, which is one of the key factors to ensure the stable operation of the crusher performance. By maintaining a reasonable clearance between the sleeve and the main shaft, the "flying car" phenomenon can be avoided, that is, the uncontrolled situation of the equipment when running at high speed can be avoided, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the equipment.

 

The design of the thrust bearing also takes into account the optimization of the lubrication system, such as by setting oil grooves on the lower surface of the thrust plate and the upper surface of the lower thrust plate, and setting oil holes in the middle of the middle thrust plate, so that the lubricating oil can flow effectively, reduce material wear, and extend the replacement cycle of the thrust bearing. This not only increases the service life of the crusher, but also reduces maintenance costs and improves economic benefits.

 

In summary, the crusher thrust bearing, through its unique design and function, not only supports the normal operation of the equipment, but also improves the safety and economy of the equipment by optimizing the lubrication system and reducing wear. It is an indispensable and important component in the crusher.
