11-4 The combined reliability of the two bearings selected in Probs. 11-2 and 11-3 is

R = ( 0.945)( 0.917 ) = 0.867 Ans.

We can choose a reliability goal of 0.90 = 0.95 for each bearing. We make the
selections, find the existing reliabilities, multiply them together, and observe that the
reliability goal is exceeded due to the roundup of capacity upon table entry.

Another possibility is to use the reliability of one bearing, say R1. Then set the reliability
goal of the second as

0.90
R2 =
R1

or vice versa. This gives three pairs of selections to compare in terms of cost, geometry
implications, etc.

11-35 Shafts subjected to thrust can be constrained by bearings, one of which supports the
thrust. The shaft floats within the endplay of the second (roller) bearing. Since the thrust
force here is larger than any radial load, the bearing absorbing the thrust (bearing A) is
heavily loaded compared to bearing B. Bearing B is thus likely to be oversized and may
not contribute measurably to the chance of failure. If this is the case, we may be able to
obtain the desired combined reliability with bearing A having a reliability near 0.99 and
bearing B having a reliability near 1. This would allow for bearing A to have a lower
capacity than if it needed to achieve a reliability of 0.99 . To determine if this is the
case, we will start with bearing B.

11-42 The thrust load on shaft AB is from the axial component of the force transmitted through
the bevel gear, and is directed to the right. By observation of Fig. 11-14, indirect
mounted bearings would allow bearing A to carry the thrust load. Ans.

From the solution to Prob. 3-76, the axial thrust load is Fae = 92.8 lbf, and the bearing
radial forces are FAy = 639.4 lbf, FAz = 1513.7 lbf, FBy = 276.6 lbf, and FBz = 705.7 lbf.
Thus, the radial forces are

FrA = 639.4 2 + 1513.7 2 = 1643 lbf

FrB = 276.62 + 705.7 2 = 758 lbf

The induced loads are

0.47 FrA 0.47 (1643)
Eq. (11-18): FiA = = = 515 lbf
KA 1.5
0.47 FrB 0.47 ( 758 )
Eq. (11-18): FiB = = = 238 lbf
KB 1.5
Check the condition on whether to apply Eq. (11-19) or Eq. (11-20).

FiA ? FiB + Fae

515 lbf > 238 + 92.8 = 330.8 lbf, so Eq.(11-20) applies

Notice that the induced load from bearing A is sufficiently large to cause a net axial force
to the left, which must be supported by bearing B.

Eq. (11-20a): FeB = 0.4 FrB + K B ( FiA Fae )

= 0.4 ( 758 ) + 1.5 ( 515 92.8) = 937 lbf > FrB, so use FeB

Assume for tapered roller bearings that the specifications for Manufacturer 1 in Table
11-6 are applicable.

We will size bearing B first since its induced load will affect bearing A, but it is not
affected by the induced load from bearing A [see Eq. (11-19)].

From Eq. (11-19b), FeB = FrB = 625 lbf.
