Abstract
Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to devices and methods for monitoring service life of an installed rolling bearing. In one example embodiment, a methods is disclosed wherein measurements are recorded in a region around the bearing using at least two sensors, and remaining service life is calculated. The step of calculating remaining service life includes determining at least one transfer function, and determining, using the at least one transfer function and the recorded measurements of the at least two sensors, at least dynamic loads on the rolling bearing.

Method for monitoring the service life of an installed rolling bearing, the method including the steps of:
- recording measurements in a region around the bearing using at least two sensors, and
- calculating a remaining service life includes
- determining at least one transfer function
- determining, using the at least one transfer function and the recorded measurements of the at least two sensors, at least dynamic loads.
Device for monitoring the service life of an installed rolling bearing, the device comprising:
- at least two sensors arranged in a region of the rolling bearing, the at least two sensors configured and arranged to record measurements in the region around the bearing, and
- wherein a remaining service life is calculated using at least one transfer function and the measurements of the at least two sensors.
