ʻO ka bearing fan kahi ʻano bearing, e pili ana i ke ʻano o ka bearing i hoʻohana ʻia e ka peʻahi o ka radiator ea-anuanu.
I loko o ka ʻenekinia mīkini, nui nā ʻano bearings, akā he kakaikahi wale nō nā ʻano i hoʻohana ʻia i nā huahana radiator: nā bearings lima e hoʻohana ana i ka friction sliding, nā bearings pōpō e hoʻohana ana i ka friction rolling, a me ka hui pū ʻana o nā ʻano bearings ʻelua. I nā makahiki i hala iho nei, ua hoʻolauna nā mea hana radiator nui i nā ʻenehana hou no nā bearings, e like me nā bearings magnetic, nā bearings nalu wai, nā bearings core magnetic, a me nā bearings hinge. . Hoʻohana nui nā radiators ea-anuanu maʻamau i nā bearings i hoʻopiha ʻia me ka ʻaila a me nā bearings pōpō.
ʻO nā bearings i hoʻopiha ʻia me ka ʻaila he mau bearings lima e hoʻohana ana i ka friction paheʻe. Hoʻohana ʻia ka ʻaila lubricating ma ke ʻano he lubricant a me ka mea hōʻemi drag. I ka hoʻohana mua ʻana, haʻahaʻa ka walaʻau hana a haʻahaʻa hoʻi ke kumukūʻai hana. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻahu nui kēia ʻano bearing, a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o kona ola lawelawe ma hope o nā bearings pōpō. Eia kekahi, inā hoʻohana ʻia kēia ʻano bearing no ka manawa lōʻihi, ma muli o ke kumu o ka sila ʻaila (ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻohana i ka sila ʻaila kiʻekiʻe no nā huahana radiator kamepiula, ʻo ia hoʻi ka sila ʻaila pepa maʻamau), e hoʻoheheʻe mālie ka ʻaila lubricating, a e komo pū ka lepo i loko o ka bearing, e hoʻolohi ana i ka wikiwiki o ka peʻahi, e piʻi ana ka walaʻau a me nā pilikia ʻē aʻe. I nā hihia koʻikoʻi, ʻo ka eccentricity o ka peʻahi i hoʻokumu ʻia e ka bearing bearing e hoʻoulu ai i ka haʻalulu koʻikoʻi. Inā ʻike ʻia kēia mau hanana, e wehe i ka sila ʻaila e hoʻopiha hou, a i ʻole e hoʻopau a kūʻai i kahi peʻahi hou.
Hoʻololi ka bearing pōpō i ke ʻano friction o ka bearing, e hoʻohana ana i ka friction ʻōwili, kahi e hōʻemi maikaʻi ai i ka hanana friction ma waena o nā ʻili bearing, hoʻomaikaʻi maikaʻi i ke ola lawelawe o ka bearing fan, a pēlā e hoʻolōʻihi ai i ke ola lawelawe o ka radiator. ʻO ka hemahema, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ke kaʻina hana, kahi e alakaʻi ai i ka hoʻonui ʻana o ke kumukūʻai a me ka walaʻau hana kiʻekiʻe.
