Tapered roller bearing is widely used in automobile industry

Automotive wheel hub

Function: Generally, two sets of tapered roller bearing combination are used for automobile wheel hub. The main function is to support the wheel, bear the weight of vehicle and various radial and axial loads generated during driving, provide accurate guidance for the rotation of wheel hub, ensure the wheel can rotate stably and smoothly, and ensure the stability and safety of automobile in high-speed driving and turning.

Principle: The inner ring of the tapered roller bearing is fixed with the hub, and the outer ring is connected with the steering knuckle or axle housing of the vehicle. When the wheels rotate, the tapered rollers roll between the tapered raceways of the inner and outer rings, transferring the load borne by the wheels to the suspension system and frame of the vehicle, and allowing the wheels to rotate with high accuracy and low friction.
