kartiorullajärjestelmä

Kartiorullajärjestelmä, also known as a taper roller bearing system, is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses tapered rollers to maintain separation between two bearing races. The inner and outer races have conical raceways, and the rollers are also tapered. This geometry allows the bearing to support both radial and axial loads simultaneously. The angle of the taper determines the load carrying capacity in each direction.

A kartiorullajärjestelmä typically consists of the inner ring, the outer ring, a set of tapered rollers, and a cage that keeps the rollers evenly spaced. The design ensures that the contact lines between the rollers and the raceways are aligned along the axis of the bearing, which helps to distribute the load evenly across the roller surface. This characteristic makes them suitable for heavy-duty applications where significant forces are present.

These bearings are commonly found in applications such as wheel hubs of vehicles, gearboxes, and industrial machinery where combined loading conditions are expected. Their ability to handle both radial and axial forces makes them a versatile choice for many engineering challenges. Proper lubrication and maintenance are crucial for ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of a kartiorullajärjestelmä.
