What is a Piston Bearing?

 When the engine operating principle is examined closely, not all of the power produced at the engine output is always transmitted to the wheels. With a system called gearbox group, the power produced for various situations such as starting, accelerating, moving at constant speeds is changed. The movement from the engine shaft is combined with the transmission in the clutch system. The connection made with the gears is carried out with a shaft called a socket shaft. The bearing that provides the bearing of this shaft and the rotation movement together with the pressure lining is the socket bearing.

The prism bearing is usually designed as a ball or tapered bearing. The number of revolutions that the internal combustion engines rotate in a minute can reach 5-6 thousand revolutions. Friction and associated heat generation is a very important issue for parts rotating at such high rotational speeds. The prism bearing also rotates with the prism shaft, in order to minimize the friction and heat generation caused by the rotational movement, the gearbox oil in the gearbox system performs the lubrication and cooling functions of the prism bearing. Any malfunction that may occur in the prizdirek bearing occurs when this lubrication process is not performed. When the gearbox oil is low or loses its properties, the socket pole bearing will fail. A malfunction can be detected in several different ways. If there is a hum-like sound when the vehicle is in gear and driving, and the sound stops when the clutch is pressed, it means that the socket bearing is faulty. To confirm the problem, the transmission oil level and condition should be checked. In another case, noise and vibration occur when the clutch is pressed while the vehicle is in gear and driving. In some cases, the gear automatically switches to neutral when the clutch is pressed. When such situations are encountered, the vehicle should not be tried to be moved any further, the service should be visited as soon as possible and the socket pole bearing should be changed.
