Abstract
Now a day’s hydraulic system plays very important role in almost all the application. As in automobile industries, small service
center, aircraft industries and used where precision is required. Traditional method of bearing removal or installation is
hammering, but unnecessary hammering causes several problems. The unsafe and excessive hammering cause’s damage of
bearing surface or sometimes chance to failure and excessive human effort required. In order to remove or installed bearing
safely, to make modification in traditional method. The modification made in easy removing and installing bearing. The purpose
of modification are required less human effort , simplicity of operation , Removing and installing bearing done without damaging
bearing surface, compact, portable and well suited .The hydraulic bearing puller based on hydraulic system on the principle of

I. INTRODUCTION
The hydraulic bearing puller and pusher is a device which is used for removing as well as installing bearing on the shaft. In the
machine the press fit operations are very complicated to align the assembly. For this type of operations required heavy force for
assembly & dissembling the bearing from the machines. It can widely & effectively used for removing the bearing. Bearings are
made to exacting tolerances and have very fine surface finishes. In order to maintain the geometrical precision and the surface
integrity of ball and roller bearing raceways and rolling elements, it is mandatory that care in storage, handling and installation
be observed. The hydraulic bearing puller and pusher perform both pulling and pushing operation safely and without harming
bearing surfaces.
II. OBJECTIVE

installing bearing. The purpose of modification are,
1) Simplicity of operation.
2) Removing and installing of bearing done without damaging bearing surface.
3) Compact, portable and well suited.
4) Low cost.

III. DESCRIPTION
A. Hydraulic's:
The word hydraulics’ concerned with study of behavior of water at rest and at motion i.e. behavior of liquids. Hydraulics’
includes properties, advantages and applications of liquids. The two main scientists give the direction to forward, one is Daniel
Bernoulli and another is Blase Pascal. Bernoulli's conducted an experiment on fluid flow and gives fluid flow equation to the
world and at same period Pascal developed science of hydraulics.
B. Pascal's Hydraulic Principle:
According to Pascal's law "The fluid pressure in an enclosed vessel’s is uniform in all direction". Consider a vessels having two
surfaces and having area A1 and A2 respectively. Also F1 and F2 be the forces acting on area A1 and area A2.
Fig. 1: Pascal's Hydraulic Model
Considering surface 1 having area A1 and force F1.Therefore, Pressure acting on surface 1 is given by,
P1 = F1 / A1
(1)
Similarly,
P2 = F2 / A2
(2)
As the pressure is same in all the direction, the smaller piston feels a smaller force and a large piston feels a large force.
Therefore, a large force can be generated with smaller force input by using hydraulic systems.
P1 = P2
F1 / A1 = F2 / A2
(3)
Fluid does not absorb any kind of supplied energy and it is capable of moving much higher load's and Providing much higher
forces due to the incompressibility.
C. Hydraulic Jack:
Hydraulic Jack is perhaps one of the best examples of fluid power system. It plays very important role in automobile industries to
facillate servicing and repair. It may be portable device. By operating handle of small device and individual can lift load of
several tons. Hydraulic jack works on the principle of Pascal's. Hydraulic Jack consists of Cylinder, Plunger, and Handle, Oil
reservoir, Pressure release and relief valve.
When the handle is operated, the plunger reciprocates then the oil from the reservoir is sucked into the plunger cylinder during
upward stroke of the plunger through the suction valve. The oil in the plunger cylinder is delivered into the ram cylinder during
the downward stroke of the plunger through the delivery valve. This pressurized oil lifts the load up, which is placed on top plate
of the ram. After the work is completed the pressure in the ram cylinder is released by unscrewing the lowering screw thus the
pressure releases and the ram is lowered, then the oil is rushed into the reservoir.
D. Traditional Method of Bearing Removal:
Traditionally, bearing removal and installation done by hammering, but such hammering causes several problems. They are,
1) Excessive hammering causes damage of bearing surfaces and sometimes chance to failure.
2) More effort required to install and remove bearing because of hammering.

IV. WORKING AND DESIGN
Hydraulic puller and pusher perform both the operation i.e. removal of bearing and installation respectively. Hydraulic pulling
consists of adjustable mechanical jaw puller inbuilt with the hydraulic jack. When pump operated, plunger comes outside. Then
mechanical jaws adjusted bellow the bearing and again operate the pump. During operation, hydraulic jack applies continuous
pressure on shaft and mechanical jaw remove bearing from shaft.
During pushing operation, two pusher inbuilt in a frame which pushes a bearing clamp. Bearing clamp supports the bearing
while performing pushing operation. The middle portion clamping plate is in elliptical shape and provided with sitting
arrangement and is adjustable range from 50-100 mm. The clamping plate is adjustable by means providing stud on both sides.
