Abstract:In order to investigate the tribological performance of the roller-pin pair, a test rig was designed and constructed to measure the frictional torque of the roller–pin pair during the full cam cycle, to study the effects of cam speed, spring initial load and oil viscosity on the frictional torque of the roller–pin pair, and to calculate the normal load and friction coefficient of the contact area of the roller–pin pair. The results indicate that the friction moment of the roller-pin pair is greater in the cam nose region and smaller and more stable at the cam base circle. The normal load in the contact area of the roller–pin pair is influenced by inertia forces, which are more pronounced at higher cam speeds. The average frictional moment of the roller–pin pair increases with the increase of the initial spring load, increases with the decrease of the lubricating oil viscosity, decreases first and then increases with the increase of the cam speed when lubricated with low-viscosity oils, and gradually increases with the increase of the cam speed when lubricated with higher-viscosity oils. |
