Summary of Test Method4.1 A vee-shaped launch ramp with known height, lengthand vee angle is placed on a flat and level (most flat and levelportion) of a sur

19、face of interest and a sphere (ball bearing,orange, golf ball, etc.) is rolled down the ramp onto the testsurface. The distance traveled after exiting the ramp is mea-sured. The ratio of the height of the spherical shapes outsidediameter above the test surface (plane) to the distance rolledafter lea

20、ving the ramp is the coefficient of rolling resistance.The test concept is that the potential energy of the sphere raisedto a height (mass height) is equated to the rolling energy ofthe released sphere (mass distance rolled). The energy ismanifested in distance traveled after leaving the launch ramp

21、.The distance traveled is the test metric, and this distance isaffected by the nature of the spherical shape and rollingsurface. The test method can be used to compare the rollingcharacteristics of different spherical shapes/surface textures ona constant rolling surface or a constant spherical shape

22、 ondifferent rolling surfaces to compare ease of rolling. Differentshaped ramps and angles have been used for different sphericalobjects (Appendix X2). Data developed with one procedurecannot be readily compared with data developed using one ofthe other procedures since the spherical shapes, launch

23、ramps,and rolling surfaces are different.5. Significance and Use5.1 Rolling friction like sliding friction depends upon manyfactors. It is a system effect that involves the nature of therolling surface and the counterface. The sliding friction force(F) is usually considered to be the sum of forces a

24、rising fromdeformations of surface features (Fs), from attractive forces(atomic, molecular, etc.) at contact points (Fa) and force frominteraction of films and particulates on the rubbing surfaces(Ff):F 5 Fa1Fs1Ff(1)The rolling friction force includes these force contributionsplus effects from the r

25、elative stiffness of the contactingsurfaces, the diameter (curvature) of the spherical shape(ball, orange, etc.) and other factors. Because there are somany factors involved in a rolling tribosystem, rolling resis-tance can best be quantified by an actual test of the sphereof interest on the intende

26、d counterface, as in this testmethod.5.2 There are countless applications where it is important toquantify the rolling characteristics of a particular sphericalshape on a particular surface. The interlaboratory tests con-ducted for this test method were performed on hardened steelballs like those us

27、ed in ball bearings. This test method could beused to assess the effect of different counterface surfaces on therolling characteristics of balls for ball bearings. Conversely, itcould be used as a quality control test on balls. Surfaceimperfections/defects/films, etc. on the balls can affect howthey

28、 roll: the distance traveled on a common counterface.5.3 Industrial applications of this test method can includeassessing conveying surfaces for spherical or nearly specialparts: check valve balls, cabinet knobs, Christmas ornaments,toilet floats, etc. Many medical devices use special shapeswhere ro

29、lling characteristics are a consideration. Similarly,many pharmaceutical products (pills) are spherical or nearlyspherical in shape, and this test method can be used to assessrolling characteristics for conveying or other reasons such assize (mass) check.5.4 Rolling friction of spherical shapes can

30、be a consider-ation in countless sports (soccer, golf, lacrosse, etc.) and gameapplications (billiards, bocce, toys, etc.). This test method canbe used to rank the rolling resistance of different ballcompositions, masses, shapes, surface textures, design,stiffness, etc. Similarly, the test method ca

31、n be used to assessthe ease of rolling of balls on different playing or gamesurfaces.5.5 This test method is very applicable to spherical ormostly spherical food products. For example, it is common touse rolling distance of apples, citrus, nuts, etc. to classify themby size for marketing. They are r

32、olled down an angled surfaceand the rolling distance becomes a function of size (mass/diameter). This test method can be used to assess the suitabilityof various rolling surfaces (carpet, metal, wood, etc.) forsuitability in classification equipment. It could also be used forfood conveyance on spher

33、ical-shaped processed foods(gumballs, hard candy, meatballs, etc.)5.6 Finally, this test method can be a valuable teaching toolfor physics and tribology students. The equipment is simple,low cost and student proof. It can be used to demonstrate theconcept of rolling friction and the factors that aff

34、ect it.6. Apparatus6.1 Atypical launch ramp for small-diameter balls is shownin Fig. X2.1. The ramp can be made from any metal with acold-finished surface roughness in the range of 0.1 and 0.3-mroughness average. Corrosion-resistant materials (aluminum,stainless steel) are preferred as the material

35、of construction ofthe launch ramp since the rolling surface can be subject tocorrosion from rain, dew, handling, etc.6.2 Fig. 1 shows a launch ramp schematic that includes thenecessary design elements of a suitable launch ramp. Thedistance rolled after the spherical shape leaves the ramp (d) isthe t

36、est metric. These design elements are:(1) A vee shape to cradle the sphere.(2) A reference surface that locates the sphere at the top ofthe ramp.(3) Aramp height (h), length (l), and angles (vee and ramp)() suitable for the size and mass of the sphere (AppendixX2.1).(4) The delivery end of the ramp

37、must be tapered tominimize “drop-off” as the sphere exits the ramp.7. Procedure7.1 Test Procedure:7.1.1 Place the launch ramp on the flat, horizontal surface ofinterest.7.1.2 Remove all obvious films and debris from handling onthe ramp, sphere, and counterface.G194 08 (2018)27.1.3 Place the sphere a

38、t the top of the launch ramp touchingthe reference surface.7.1.4 Release the sphere without added sideward, forward,or backward forces. Small balls can be held in two fingers andreleased; large balls can be held with both hands or a devicecan be used to hold the ball until release.7.1.5 Measure the

39、distance traveled from the launch rampend with a meter stick, tape measure, etc. If the rollingdistances are less than 500 cm, round the result to one decimalplace (for example, 31.3 cm).7.1.6 Calculate the coefficient of rolling resistance (CORR)for the tribosystem using the following equation:CORR

40、 5 h/d (2)where:CORR = may be converted to RR by multiplying by 100.This term may be preferred for some applicationssince it usually results in a whole number (afterrounding) that increases with rolling resistance orrolling frictionh = the vertical distance between the spheres point ofcontact with t

41、he launch ramp and the horizontalrolling plane.d = the distance that the sphere rolled (to a stop) afterexiting the inclined plane7.2 Ten replicates are recommended. It is not necessary touse a new travel path for each test if the rolling surface isrobust and not irreversibly deformed during testing

42、.NOTE 1The length of the ramp is neglected in the CORR calculation.Its length is neglected because this length just becomes a constant addedto the (d) measurements made in the test. It does play a role in retardingthe rolling of the sphere and it must be kept clean and debris free. Dataobtained with

43、 one ramp should not be compared with data obtained witha launch ramp with a different height and length.8. Report8.1 It is important to describe fully the rolling member andthe rolling counterface. For example, the newness, conditionand cleanliness of a sphere should be stated along withpertinent c

44、ounterface conditions such as method ofmanufacture, surface texture, etc. Helpful documents for re-cording data are Guide G115 and Test Method G143. A typicaltest report is shown in Fig. 2.9. Precision and Bias9.1 There is no standard rolling surface that can be evalu-ated with this test method, the

45、refore, no bias can be defined.9.1.1 Appendix X1 shows results of interlaboratory testsconducted with two different diameter hardened (60 HRC)52100 steel balls rolling on precision surface plates. The testballs came from the same lot. The surface plates were ofdifferent materials, but all were level

The coefficient of variation ranged from 0.02 to 0.108.9.1.2 Appendix X2.1 contains nonmandatory informationon ramps used in the development of this test method.Coefficient of variation in these tests ranged from 0.04 to 0.12.9.2 Sources of VariabilityNicks and other d
