Providing Reliable Interference Fits of Rolling Bearings in Transfer Gearboxes

Abstract

The off-road operation of machines requires for specialized training and equipment that makes it possible to provide its mobility even under challenging conditions with frequent overloading. In this regard, increased requirements are imposed on vehicle components, for which it is neccessary to provide precision in assembling thereof. One of the key components that makes it possible to transmits torque between the drive axles can be represented by a transfer gearbox, whose reliability determines the operability of the vehicle. In this paper, studies concerning the fit reliability of the L0/k6 rolling bearings in the GAZ transfer gearbox of the GAZ vehicle.
