Apparatus and method for measuring resonance in bearing device
An additional mass member 22 for measuring resonance of a bearing device comprises an elastic ring 30 having an inner periphery 30a larger in diameter than the outer periphery of the outer ring 24 of the bearing device 25 and being contracted and expanded in the radial direction, and a fixed ring 31 having a large rigidity and fitted onto the elastic ring 30. The elastic ring 30 is fitted to the outer ring 20, and then the fixed ring 31 is fitted to the elastic ring 30 to push the elastic ring 30 in the radial direction, so as to contract the inner periphery 30a of the elastic ring 30, so that the additional mass member 22 is fixed to the bearing device 21, whereby the resonance frequency of the bearing device having a double row of bearings can be measured precisely and readily.
