What Are the Main Components of a Rolling Bearing?

Rolling bearings consist of four main components: the outer ring, inner ring, rolling elements, and cage. Simply put, any bearing that includes an outer ring, inner ring, and rolling elements can be classified as a rolling bearing. Based on the shape of the rolling elements, rolling bearings are categorized into two main types: ball bearings and roller bearings. Strictly speaking, they are composed of six major parts: the outer ring, inner ring, rolling elements, cage, seals, and lubricating oil. Additional information: 1. Bearings are critical components in modern mechanical equipment. Their primary function is to support rotating mechanical parts, reduce the friction coefficient during operation, and ensure rotational accuracy. Depending on the friction properties of the moving elements, bearings can be divided into two main categories: rolling bearings and sliding bearings. Rolling bearings have been standardized and serialized, but compared to sliding bearings, they have larger radial dimensions, higher vibration and noise levels, and are more expensive. 2. Rolling bearings support rotating shafts and their components, maintaining the proper working position and rotational accuracy of the shaft. They are easy to use and maintain, reliable in operation, have good starting performance, and offer relatively high load-bearing capacity at medium speeds. Compared to sliding bearings, rolling bearings have larger radial dimensions, poorer vibration damping capabilities, shorter lifespans at high speeds, and produce more noise.

What is the function of a car spark plug?

Function and role of spark plugs: The ground electrode of the spark plug is connected to the metal shell, which is threaded into the engine block via the cylinder head. The insulator primarily serves to isolate the metal shell from the center electrode. The terminal nut is the part of the spark plug that contacts the high-voltage coil. When current passes through the terminal nut and the center electrode, it ionizes the medium between the center electrode and the ground electrode, generating a spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Spark plug replacement interval: Under normal maintenance conditions, replacement is recommended every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it's advisable to follow the owner's manual. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, standard nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers.

Where is the steering angle sensor installed?

The steering angle sensor is installed at the bottom of the steering column. The steering angle sensor is a device used to detect the rotation angle and direction of the steering wheel. It is a device for determining the angular position of a shaft, such as a steering column, which includes a coil set, a coil support, and a coupler element. The coupler element has a coupler angular position related to the angular position of the shaft. Additional information: 1. The automotive steering angle sensor is used to detect the rotation angle and direction of the steering wheel. Whether the steering wheel turns left or right, it will be detected by the steering angle sensor, enabling the vehicle's electronic control unit to issue the correct steering command. The rotation angle of the steering wheel provides the basis for the vehicle to achieve the steering amplitude, allowing the car to drive according to the driver's steering intention. 2. The steering angle sensor consists of photoelectric coupling elements, perforated slot plates, etc. The photoelectric coupling elements are light-emitting diodes and photosensitive transistors. The perforated slot plate is placed between the light-emitting diode and the photosensitive transistor. The perforated slot plate has many small holes. When the steering wheel turns, the perforated slot plate follows the rotation. The photosensitive transistor operates based on the light passing through the perforated slot plate and outputs a digital pulse signal. The vehicle's electronic control unit uses this signal to identify the steering angle, direction, and speed of the steering wheel.

What does the oil viscosity 5W-30 mean?

In engine oil 5W30, the "5" indicates the oil's low-temperature fluidity. The smaller the number, the lower the ambient temperature it can be used in, and the better the protection for the engine during cold starts. The number 5 represents resistance to external low temperatures of -30°C. The number 30 represents the kinematic viscosity standard at 100 degrees Celsius, which is 30. This number indicates the oil's high-temperature resistance; the larger the number, the better the oil's protective performance at high temperatures. Additional information: 1. The SAE lubricant viscosity classification for winter oil grades are: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W. The symbol W stands for winter, and the smaller the number before W, the lower the low-temperature viscosity, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the minimum applicable temperature. 2. The SAE lubricant viscosity classification for summer oil grades are: 20, 30, 40, 50. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity, and the higher the maximum applicable temperature. "W" stands for WINTER, and the number before "W" indicates the flow viscosity under low-temperature conditions. The smaller this number, the better the oil's low-temperature fluidity, and the better the protection for the engine during cold starts. The number after "W" represents the oil's viscosity at 100°C. The higher the number, the higher the viscosity, and the better the protection for the engine at high temperatures.

Will traffic police intervene if a car has a color-changing film applied?

If the color-changing film is applied with legal procedures, traffic police will not intervene, but if it is illegal, you may face fines and other issues. According to relevant regulations, if the vehicle's color change exceeds 30%, it must be registered with the vehicle management department, and the driving documents must be updated; otherwise, the vehicle will not pass the annual inspection. Below are the precautions for applying color-changing films to cars: 1. The overall color of the full-body film must not exceed three colors. If the car emblem is also recolored, it counts as well. Traffic police will inspect the vehicle if they notice the body color clearly exceeds three colors. 2. Electroplated color-changing films and reflective fabric color-changing films cannot be used to update the vehicle license. However, the newly released laser series of color-changing films can be used to update the driving license. 3. The area of partial film application must not exceed 30% of the entire vehicle's surface. If the area is too large, traffic police can easily notice and may inspect the vehicle, possibly requiring an update to the driving license.
