How the cage distributes the load？

During the movement of the Deep Groove Ball Bearing, the main function of the cage is to effectively distribute the load to ensure that the bearing can maintain stable and efficient operation under various working conditions. This critical component plays a vital role in the overall performance of the bearing.

Cages ensure that their relative position and spacing remain stable by locating and constraining rolling elements, such as balls or rollers, within a bearing. This means that during bearing movement, the rolling elements will not move randomly or collide with each other unnecessarily. By effectively controlling the position of the rolling elements, the cage avoids the problem of excessive local loads, thereby reducing bearing wear and fatigue to a great extent.

One of the design goals of the cage is to prevent the rolling elements from accumulating and colliding with each other. In bearing motion, the free movement of the rolling elements may cause accumulation between them and even collisions. The existence of the cage effectively prevents these uncontrolled movements and ensures that each rolling element can move according to the designed trajectory. This helps ensure even distribution of load within the bearing, reducing the burden on each part and improving the overall load-bearing capacity.

Through a carefully designed structure, the cage ensures that the rolling elements can advance along a prescribed trajectory when moving, rather than being randomly distributed. This uniform distribution effect effectively reduces the burden on the bearings and improves overall performance and life.

The cage reduces its own load by optimizing its material and structural design. Using lightweight, high-strength materials, and providing sufficient rigidity through engineering design, the cage can not only undertake its own functions, but also have less negative impact on the overall performance of the bearing. This optimized cage design both contributes to its own stability and ensures good service to the bearing system.
