hullámgolyó

A hullámgolyó, also known as a wave ball or shock absorber ball, is a type of roller bearing primarily used to reduce vibration and shock in rotating machinery. It typically consists of a spherical outer shell containing multiple smaller balls or rollers that are free to move within the shell. As the outer shell rotates, the inner balls or rollers are propelled by centrifugal force, creating a dampening effect.

The design of a hullámgolyó allows it to absorb torsional vibrations and sudden impacts, which can otherwise lead to premature wear and failure of mechanical components. This makes them particularly useful in applications where variable loads or operational disturbances are common, such as in automotive transmissions, industrial gearboxes, and certain types of pumps.

The effectiveness of a hullámgolyó depends on factors like the size and number of internal balls, the material of construction, and the specific operating conditions. These devices are generally compact and can be integrated into existing drive systems with relative ease. While not a primary load-carrying bearing, their role in vibration and shock mitigation is crucial for improving the longevity and reliability of many mechanical systems.
