When it comes to how deep groove ball bearings handle different types of loads, it is important to understand the basic design and working principles of deep groove ball bearings. Deep groove ball bearings are a common and widely used type of bearing that are primarily designed to carry radial loads, i.e. forces along the axis. The core structure of this bearing consists of an inner ring, an outer ring, steel balls, and a cage. The deep grooves between the inner and outer rings house the steel balls, which evenly distribute and transmit forces when the bearing is loaded.

For radial loads, deep groove ball bearings effectively support this type of load through their raceways and balls. The geometry and contact angles of the inner and outer rings are designed to allow the bearing to absorb and disperse radial forces from the device in multiple directions. This design feature allows deep groove ball bearings to perform well in most mechanical applications, including electric motors, fans, transmission systems, etc.

Axial loads have a much smaller effect on deep groove ball bearings. While deep groove ball bearings have some load-carrying capacity in the axial direction, this capacity is generally limited to light to moderate loads. Therefore, for large amounts of pure axial loads, especially in high-speed rotation and high-load applications, it may be necessary to consider other types of bearings, such as thrust ball bearings or cylindrical roller bearings, which are designed to withstand large axial forces.

In the case of eccentric and vibration loads, deep groove ball bearings are generally able to handle some degree of eccentric loads and vibration, as their ball and cage geometry helps absorb and reduce these irregular loads. However, to ensure long-term operational stability and life, it may be necessary to consider enhanced sealing and optimized lubrication programs when selecting bearings to reduce the negative effects of vibration and friction.

For shock loads, deep groove ball bearings are not specifically designed to withstand large amounts of shock loads. Although they may be able to withstand transient shocks for a short period of time, long-term use under high shock loads may cause early damage or failure of the bearing. Long-term or repeated high shock loads need to be avoided during design and operation to protect the performance and life of the bearing.

For combined loads, deep groove ball bearings have a certain adaptability and can effectively handle a combination of radial and axial loads. In the application, it is critical to select the appropriate size and type of deep groove ball bearing based on the specific load ratio and direction. For example, in certain combined load situations, the internal geometry of the bearing and the number of balls may need to be considered to ensure that it is balanced and effectively transfers forces in various directions.

Deep groove ball bearings are widely used bearing type and are particularly versatile. They have low friction and are optimized for low noise and low vibration which enables high rotational speeds. They accommodate radial and axial loads in both directions, are easy to mount, and require less maintenance than other bearing types.
