A System for Cleaning, Protecting and Lubricating Hyperbolic Rollers and Bearings Placed in a Rotating Rotor Which is Used for Straightening Wire, Rod or Reinforcing Bar, Using Air and Oil

摘要

A system and method for cleaning, protecting and lubricating hyperbolic rollers and bearings for bending, using air and oil, placed in a rotating rotor (1) that contains rollers (32) placed on bearings (34) and shafts (33) inside roller housings (30), where rollers (32) are positioned at an angle with respect to the bending axis and, as bending occurs they cause bending and also as rotor (1) rotates around the item being bent it straightens and feeds the item. Rollers (32) are placed on bearings (34) and are protected through rotational seals (35). The bearings' (34) area of rollers (32) inside the rotational seal (35) is supplied with air at pressure higher than the atmospheric, so that inflow of contaminants are inhibited, or is supplied with air enriched with oil so that bearings (34) are lubricated, and rotational seals (35) located next to bearings (34) of the rollers (32) allow the air flow from the area between the bearings towards the surrounding area.
