Bearings are mechanical tools that have the ability to reduce or eliminate friction between two or more elements in rotary or linear motion between them.
In this video we will see the history of bearings, and in the videos of this playlist you will see each kind of bearing.
Jaes, leader in the industrial supplies sector for more than 10 years, has become the reference partner for some of the most important engineering companies by providing them with every kind of bearing.
The first intuitions on bearings were elaborated by Leonardo da Vinci, before they became the subject of studies, insights, evolutions and patents up to the currently known form.
But, the first patent was filed in 1794 by Philip Vaughan, a Welsh blacksmith very observant of technological innovations, who made a significant contribution to the design of the first prototypes of ball bearings.
A second patent was filed in 1869 by Jules Suriray, a Parisian bicycle mechanic. The invention was immediately applied in the cycling sector, for important races such as the Paris-Rouen, the first road cycling race, held on August 3, 1869.
Ball bearings spread more and more since they could be used in different fields but, being difficult to produce, they could not be manufactured in large quantities. It was the German Friedrich Fischer who revolutionised the market thanks to the creation of a machine for grinding balls, starting the process of industrialisation of rolling bearings.
Finally, Henry Timken and Sven Gustaf Wingqvist revolutionised the market, founding real industrial giants capable of producing bearings in large quantities and carrying out R&D operations that led to the current composition and versatility of this mechanical component frequently used nowadays.
Do you know how the bearing works and how it is lubricated? Find out in the next video.
