A vehicle wheel hub assembly includes an outer member configured to be mounted to a non-rotatable portion of the vehicle and an inner member rotatably supported in the outer member by a bearing. An annular target body is coupled to the inner member. A first magnetic target track is disposed on the annular target body, and a first sensor is located adjacent to the first magnetic target track and configured to sense angular displacement of the first magnetic target track and to produce a first output signal. A second magnetic target track is disposed on the annular target body, and the second magnetic target track is spaced from the first magnetic target track. A second sensor is located adjacent to the second magnetic target track for sensing angular displacement of the second target track and is configured to produce a second output signal.

When conveying a rolling bearing from a ball collection operation position to a block division operation position or/and when conveying the rolling bearing from the block division operation position to an equal distribution operation position, a positional misalignment prevention member is inserted into a circumferential gap existing between rolling elements, so that the rolling elements are prevented from rolling and being thus dispersedly scattered and positionally misaligned.

When conveying a rolling bearing from a ball collection operation position to a block division operation position or/and when conveying the rolling bearing from the block division operation position to an equal distribution operation position, a positional misalignment prevention member is inserted into a circumferential gap existing between rolling elements, so that the rolling elements are prevented from rolling and being thus dispersedly scattered and positionally misaligned.

Apparatuses and methods are provided for manufacturing bearing assemblies. In accordance with one embodiment, a fixture is provided for use in brazing bearing elements to a bearing ring. The fixture comprises a substantially annular body and at least one or more force-applying mechanism associated with the annular body. The force applying mechanisms include a push rod disposed within a channel that is formed in the annular body, the push rod being displaceable within the channel. A biasing member is configured to bias the push rod in a radial direction relative to the annular body. In one embodiment, a plurality of force-applying mechanisms are circumferentially spaced about the substantially annular body. In one embodiment, the push rods extend radially inwardly from a peripheral surface of the body, while in another embodiment the push rods extend radially outwardly from peripheral surface of the body.

When conveying a rolling bearing from a ball collection operation position to a block division operation position or/and when conveying the rolling bearing from the block division operation position to an equal distribution operation position, a positional misalignment prevention member is inserted into a circumferential gap existing between rolling elements, so that the rolling elements are prevented from rolling and being thus dispersedly scattered and positionally misaligned.

A method for manufacturing a seal is disclosed. The method includes forming a layer of a hardened metal layer on a metal base plate. Further, the method includes melting the layer of the hardened metal in a nitrogen atmosphere to form a layer of metal nitride. Furthermore, the method includes depositing a plurality of layers of a metal alloy on the layer of metal nitride to form a main seal body portion, wherein the layer of metal nitride and the main seal body portion together correspond to the seal.

A compressor swash plate includes a base member having a flat plate shape, and a coating layer formed on a surface of the base member and having projections formed in a linear shape, in which the following inequalities are satisfied when a plane part formed on a prism is pressed against the coating layer with a pressure of 30 MPa: 0.01B0.06 and 10S40, where B indicates widths (mm) of surfaces of the projections in contact with the plane part, and S indicates a percentage (%) of a total sum of an area Si of the contact surfaces (a gross area of the surfaces of the projections in contact with the plane part) relative to a reference area (an area of a part of the coating layer against which the plane part is pressed).

The present disclosure relates to a stator assembly of a magnetic suspension bearing and a manufacturing method, wherein the stator assembly includes stator cores, coils and two stator core frames, two of the stator core frames being respectively engaged at both ends of the stator core along an axial direction thereof, wherein a concave portion is provided at an engaged end of one of the stator core frames, and a convex portion is provided at an engaged end of the other of the stator core frames, the concave portion and the convex portion are engaged with each other, and each of the coils is wound correspondingly to teeth of the stator cores.

A magnetic field communication system and method is devised for communicating a signal indicating an internal state of a bearing through a magnetic field and for converting the signal communicating through the magnetic field into power to analyze the internal state of the bearing. The system includes a sensor unit disposed inside a bearing and an adapter disposed outside the bearing. The sensor unit includes a sensor to detect a temperature of oil inside the bearing and to output a sensing signal indicative of the detected oil temperature, and an interface to convert the outputted sensing signal into a magnetic field signal and to transmit the magnetic field signal outside the bearing. The adapter receives the transmitted magnetic field signal from the sensor unit and analyzes the received magnetic field signal in order to determine a status of the oil temperature.
