Abstract
The dynamic equations of motion of a ball-bearing separator are solved with a six degree-of-freedom model and vector matrix algebra. The dynamic model includes the effects of inelastic collisions of the separator with the balls and/or races, and also slip of the balls on the races. The digital computer model predicts separator motions, impact forces, frequencies, and all dynamic variables such as accelerations, velocities, and energy losses. The model of the ball bearing is simplified, in ways that do not significantly affect the separator dynamics, for the sake of making the analytical model and the resulting digital computer program cost effective. The analysis is adaptable to optimization of separator designs and improving performance of bearings with separator dynamic instability problem.
