Bearings play a vital role in motion and load transmission. During its entire life it is subjected to varying axial and radial loads, its use extending from automobiles to ceiling fans, elevator doors etc. To ensure the proper functioning of the components the bearing has to be made such that it can withstand the varying loads and keep the components in smooth working conditions. In this research work, efforts are made to understand the behaviour of bearing under varying loads. The stress distribution in the balls of bearing, inner race, outer race and its effects are studied. Static Analysis will be carried out to observe these effects. The outcome will show the stress distribution around the bearing.Keywords: Static analysis, Deep groove, Ball Bearing, Stress, StrainCite this ArticleRamani DB, Mulia NP, Patel RC, Static Analysis of Deep Groove Ball Bearing using ANSYS.
