Question: 

 State the applications of following bearings with suitable reasons: (i) Deep grove ball bearing (ii) Taper roller bearing (iii) Thrust coller bearing (iv) Needle roller bearing

Answer: 

i) Deep Groove Ball bearing : Application: Electric Motor Reason: Capacity to take heavily axial load with high rotational speed ii) Taper roller bearing : Application: axle housing of automobile Reason: ability to take high radial load as well as thrust load iii) Thrust collar bearing: Application: Clutch of automobile Reason: ability to combine radial & axial load with min. speed iv) Needle roller bearing: Application: Differential of automobile Reason: takes less radial space. it has high radial load carrying capacity.
