In a bearing device for a vehicle wheel (1), a large-diameter section (2i) is formed on an outer side of a fitting cylinder section (2h), and a small-diameter section (2j) is formed on an inner side of the fitting cylinder section (2h). A cap member (8) is formed by bending a metal steel plate, and has a cover plate section (81) which closes the inner open end of an outer member (2) and a fitting section (82) which is fitted over the small-diameter section (2j). A tapered portion (83) based on the spring back angle θ of the fitting section (82) is provided at the outer peripheral edge of the outer end section of the fitting section (82).

A bearing assembly is for movably coupling a first member having a centerline and displaceable about a rotation axis perpendicular to the centerline and a second member displaceable about the centerline and/or another axis perpendicular to the centerline. The bearing assembly includes a laminated bearing having an inner axial end coupled with the second member and an outer axial end spaced from the inner end along the first member centerline and coupleable with the first member. A clutch mechanism releasably couples the bearing outer axial end with the first member when the first member angularly displaces about the rotation axis. The clutch mechanism preferably has a first portion connected with the bearing outer axial end, a second portion coupled with the first member and engageable with the first portion to couple the two members, and a biasing member spaces apart the two clutch portions when the first member is non-rotational.

A pump bearing holder has a carrier portion configured to carry a static set of magnets of a pump magnetic bearing and a support portion extending outwardly of the carrier portion to connect with a pump casing such that the pump bearing holder spans an inlet provided in the pump housing. The support portion defines a plurality of internal through-passages that, in use, allow a gas flowing through the inlet to flow through the support portion.

A wheel bearing outer ring with a plurality of fastening elements are configured to be fixed to the wheel bearing outer ring to a knuckle of a car are arranged at a radial outer side of the wheel bearing outer ring. A view of the wheel bearing outer ring with a line of vision being a central axis of the wheel bearing outer ring at least one angle between a first one of the fastening elements and a second one of the fastening elements, which are neighbouring with respect to the circumferential direction of the wheel bearing outer ring, differs from an angle between a third one of the fastening elements and one of the fastening elements, which is neighbouring to the third one of the fastening elements with respect to the circumferential direction. All the angles are measured with respect to the central axis and in the circumferential direction.

A bearing cooling system for a vibratory pile driving system comprising at least one housing wall defining at least one bearing opening and at least one bearing assembly supported by the at least one housing wall in the at least one bearing opening. The bearing cooling system comprises a bearing cover plate, a bearing cover seal member, and at least one bearing bolt. The bearing cover plate defines an inner surface having a bearing cover plate seal recess. The bearing cover seal member adapted to be received at least partly within the bearing cover plate seal recess. The at least one bearing bolt is configured to secure the bearing cover plate relative to the at least one housing wall to form at least one contact location at which the bearing cover plate is in contact with at least a portion of the at least one bearing assembly.

A monobloc device (40) for supporting a motor vehicle powerplant (10) comprising: a support arm (42), a fastening mount (44) that is arranged at a first end of the support arm (42) and that is designed to be rigidly attached to the powerplant (10), and a suspension ring (48) with a given main axis (A) that is arranged at a second end of the support arm (42) and that is designed to be attached to a structural element (38) of the vehicle with an interposed damping ring (50), characterized in that the support arm (42) comprises a connecting-shaft bearing (52) through which a transmission shaft (22) of the powerplant (10) is intended to pass intended to support the shaft.
