    I’ve always called the small metal balls ball bearings because I’ve seen conical bearings and cylindrical ones. saying their shape first is extremely useful when seeking an industrial sized quote for a purchase. Sure you could say ‘roller bearings’ for cylindrical and ‘tapered’ for truncated cones, but sometimes somebody actually wants conical bearings.

    Great solve, Mr. Puzzle! the puzzle box vids are my absolute favorite. Plus...
    When you use the word 'bearing' alone, it generally means the whole mechanism that facilitates the rotation. A 'ball bearing' is made of of several pieces, as you no doubt know, but other kinds of bearings (thrust bearings, air bearings, etc) can be referred to collectively as 'bearings'. Even simple bronze bushings can be referred to as bearings. I love this subject!

    After reading many of the comments, all of which have some measure of correctness and errors, what you have in that puzzle are just "steel balls!" (Assuming they are steel of course! Otherwise "metal balls" or ">insert material here< balls" to be most rigorous.)
    They initially might have even been produced to be used in a bearing, but in this case they are being used more as "detents" or locks. So they would/should most accurately be called ">their use< balls" such as detent balls, or locking balls; but ">material< balls" such as steel balls would be generically correct in this case; exception noted above.
    This is in part because they could have also been made for less precise uses, such as in steel shot used in cleaning and peening systems, or as ballast (weights) or in . . . puzzles. (A "puzzle ball" would probably prove more confusing than helpful though.)
    But to be precise, if they weren't precision made to run in a bearing race, they are just "steel balls." They could also have been made of ceramic or glass to be used, or not, in ceramic or glass ball bearings as well. In example; a glass ball not used as/in a bearing is usually just called a marble . . . etc., etc. (Glass/ceramic bearings (though rarer) are typically used when they need to be non-magnetic.)
    It's really not a big deal in this case. Unlike with "Kleenex," no one owns the rights to the name "ball bearing."
    I think I've beat that parrot to death now. ("No you didn't he's just sleeping!") (Sorry, I digressed. :-)

    Those are bearing balls used in ball bearings. Why people call them bearings? The bearing is the whole assembly. English is not my first language so I guess this is some kind of language shortcut but it's still confusing.

    • @toddjohnson5692
      @toddjohnson5692 Před 2 lety +4

      Actually in English they are ball bearings, or just steel balls. The note he read wasn't very well written. Bearing balls is probably more accurate, but if you say 'ball bearings' in the US at least, folks think of the balls not the whole bearing.

    It's funny, a bearing is actually supposed to be a whole device which lets one thing roll or slide against another along a constrained axis of motion. A ball bearing is a particular form of that device, typically with two concentric rings that have balls separating them, and allowing either ring to spin freely while the other is fixed. You're actually 100% correct to call the balls contained in them "bearing balls", but a lot of people refer to the metal balls used in ball bearings as "ball bearings"... confusingly, and arguably incorrectly, though it's common enough by this point that we might have to just put up with it. Just referring to the balls as "bearings" is an even stranger development I think.

    • @Ceruleanst
      @Ceruleanst Před 2 lety +1

      I think it's because in most people's experience with ball bearings in the wheels of roller skates and skateboards, when we think "there are ball bearings in there", the distinction between the mechanism and its components does not seem especially important when it's easy to imagine how they would scatter all over the floor if it broke open.
      The history of the BB gun also had some influence. Even though "BB" was originally an alphanumeric size of birdshot, it is natural to assume it stands for "ball bearing" because of the similarity. And when you see a tiny metal ball by itself, or in something like a plastic maze, well, it's very hard to tell which it was originally manufactured to be.

    • @MarcusTheDorkus
      @MarcusTheDorkus Před 2 lety +1

      Was going to comment the same thing to explain why calling them just "bearings" is the strangest choice. If Mr. Puzzle wants to avoid upsetting people with "bearing balls" he can just say "steel/metal balls"

      What I'd really love to see, is if you could hire an animator, especially for those types of puzzles. I think it would be a wonderful addition and make understanding the solution even easier.

    I have noticed that you are a little bit confused about correct terminology of ball bearing and bearing ball, so i thought i could clarify it for you. First word describes type of item and second word is the item, so ball bearing would mean bearing with balls in it (there are different bearings not only with balls). Bearing ball would mean a ball from bearing, which would be correct to say in your case, since in puzzles you find these bearing balls. Or to simplify all of that even more, you can just call them steel balls.
