A bearing assembly of a power generation structure including, a rail; and a housing adapted to support the rail; where the housing includes a fixed housing portion attached to a support beam, and an adjustable housing portion attached to rail, where a low friction material is present at an interface between an exterior surface of rail and an interior surface of the adjustable housing portion, where the adjustable housing portion is capable of self-aligning adjustment of at least a portion of the rail out of alignment with a central axis of the support beam.

A pivot structure assembly including a fixed cover and a hinge module is provided. The hinge module includes a torque element, a first shaft, a second shaft, a first bracket and a second bracket. The torque element is fixed on the fixed cover and has a first and a second axle sleeves, parallely disposed at two opposite sides of the torque element. The first shaft is disposed through the first axle sleeve, and the second shaft is disposed through the second axle sleeve. The first bracket is pivotally disposed on the torque element through the first shaft, and the second bracket pivotally disposed on the torque element through the second shaft. When the first and second brackets rotate relatively to the torque element, the first and second axle sleeves respectively provide different friction forces to the first and second shafts. In addition, an electronic device is also mentioned.

An insulating device is for a bearing mountable within a housing and includes a generally annular metallic body configured to couple with an outer ring of the bearing so as to be mounted to the bearing when the bearing is separate from a housing. The body includes an axial portion, the axial portion having an inner circumferential surface disposeable about the outer ring outer surface and an opposing outer circumferential surface, and first and second radial portions each disposeable against a separate one of the outer ring axial ends. At least one oxide layer is formed on at least one of the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the body axial portion so as to substantially prevent electrical flow between the bearing and the housing.

An electric machine has a stator with N posts. A rotor is mounted on bearings for rotary movement about an axis relative to the stator with an air gap between the rotor and stator. The bearings are pre-loaded axial thrust bearings or pre-loaded angular bearings. The pre-load forces are provided at least in part by magnetic attraction between the stator and rotor. The rotor has M poles. The values for N and M have the property that the greatest common divisor of N and M is four or more.

A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail movable with respect to the first rail, and a cable management device. The cable management device includes a first set of arms and a second set of arms connected to the first set of arms. The first set of arms include two arms that are movable with respect to each other. The second set of arms also include two arms that are movable with respect to each other. The cable management device has a portion connected to the first rail and is switched from a first state to a second state in response to the second rail moving with respect to the first rail from a first position to a second position.

A flexure bearing includes an inner race, an outer race, and a plurality of substantially planar radially extending blades coupled between the inner and outer race. The blades have a thickness that is thinner than a thickness of the inner and outer races. The inner race, outer race, and blades have substantially the same height. At least one heating element is coupled to the inner race and/or the outer race. The heating element is configured to apply heat to the race that it is coupled to in order to tune the flexure bearing.

A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail and a working member. The first rail includes a blocking feature. The second rail is movable relative to the first rail. The working member is configured to be switched between a first state and a second state and includes a first blocking part and a second blocking part. When the second rail is located at an extension position and the working member is in the first state, the first blocking part corresponds to the blocking feature. When the working member is operated to be in the second state, the second blocking part corresponds to the blocking feature, to allow the second rail to be moved from the extension position to a predetermined position, in order to keep a distance between a front part of the second rail and a front part the first rail.

A bearing housing structure (101) comprises a support section (102) for supporting a bearing (117), a reception interface (103) for receiving lubrication grease, and grease channels (104-106) for conducting the lubrication grease to both sides of the bearing which are mutually opposite in the axial direction of the bearing. The bearing housing structure comprises exit conduits (107, 108) for allowing the lubrication grease to exit the bearing from the both sides of the bearing and a grease reservoir (109) for storing the lubrication grease exiting the bearing via one or more of the exit conduits. The bearing housing structure is capable of operating in different positions so that the axial direction of the bearing can be horizontal, vertical, or slanting.

A mounting system for mounting an element to a surface includes a mounting element having a base and a threaded shaft extending from the base along an axis. The base is configured for mounting to a surface. An incremental nut rotates on the threaded shaft and moves up and down on the shaft. A fitting is coupled with the incremental nut and the fitting is further configured for coupling with an element to mount the element to a surface at a selected height above the surface. Apertures are formed in the incremental nut and fitting and the apertures of the incremental nut aperture and fitting are aligned at a plurality of rotational positions of the incremental nut along the threaded shaft for adjusting the height of the nut and fitting. In one embodiment the threaded shaft includes an aperture that is aligned with the incremental nut apertures for locking the nut at a selected height.

A hinge assembly is provided. The first swing arm includes a first hinge connecting part and a first rotating part. The first swing arm is rotatable relative to the base around a first axis between the first hinge connecting part and the first rotating part. The second swing arm includes a second hinge connecting part and a second rotating part. The second swing arm is rotatable relative to the base around a second axis between the second hinge connecting part and the second rotating part. The second axis is parallel to the first axis. The slider includes a first fastening part, a second fastening part, and an extension part. The extension part is located in the guide groove. The first fastening part is movably connected to the first hinge connecting part. The second fastening part is movably connected to the second hinge connecting part.
