Abstract
The work presents an analysis of the loading conditions of an idler roller journal bearing of a belt conveyor based on different dynamic models (linear and nonlinear with elastic and frictional elements). It is established using computer simulation that the correct choice of the elastic and viscous characteristics of the damping components used in the support bearing design makes it possible to substantially reduce the dynamic loads on the latter.
