METHOD OF CLEANING AND PRESERVATION OF BEARINGS Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: outer and inner races of bearings at adjacent positions are rotated by jets of washing or slushing compound in opposite sides. On one face of bearing, jets act along line of motion and on other face, jets act crosswise; pressure of jets is changed from position to position. Surfaces of bearings at two last positions are acted on by jets of purified air similarly to jets of compound. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. 2 cl, 2 dwg
