Design Principles

The design principle of bearing housings is to provide a stable support structure to mount bearings and protect them from environmental factors. Bearing housings are typically made from cast iron or cast steel, offering sufficient strength to support the bearings and their loads. The design ensures that the housing can precisely fit with the bearing and effectively secure it to prevent displacement or rotation.

Applications

The purpose of bearing housings is to support and protect bearings while securing them at a specific position in machinery or equipment. Bearing housings usually have a pre-made hole to accommodate the bearing and are provided with bolt holes for easy mounting to the machine. They may also include seals to prevent contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture from entering the bearing, thereby extending the bearing's service life. Bearing housings are widely used in various mechanical and industrial equipment, such as conveyor systems, motors, pumps, fans, and various bearing support devices.
