A bearing system including a wheel assembly transmitting load to a damping assembly, wherein the wheel assembly is configured to rotate angularly relative to the damping assembly.

A machine having two co-axial and relatively rotatable rotors and a coaxial stator or housing with respect to which both rotors are rotatable is provided wherein two bearing arrangements mutually support the two rotors with respect to each other and with respect to the stator or housing. One of the bearing arrangements comprises multiple support bearings angularly spaced apart with respect to the axis of rotation of the rotors relative to the stator with the support bearings each having an axle or shaft that is fixed relative to one of the rotors or the stator. Each support bearing cooperates with a raceway provided on a concentric adjacent rotor or stator. The machine may be an electromechanical machine such as a wind turbine in which rotational movement of one of the rotors relative to the other and relative to the stator generates electrical energy.

A bearing including a base, a plurality of slots, and a plurality of rollers disposed in the plurality of slots. At least one of the plurality of slots may be configured to retain a first roller and a second roller of the plurality of rollers at different skewing angles. Methods for manufacturing bearings are also described. In an embodiment, a method of manufacturing a bearing includes providing a first plurality of base layers. The first plurality of base layers may include portions of a plurality of slots and portions of a plurality of cooling channels. The method may include inserting a roller in at least one of the portions of the plurality of slots and providing a second plurality of base layers.

A bearing (8) comprising a first row of rolling elements (10, 10a, 10b, 12, 12a, 12b) having a first pressure center (14) and a first contact angle, and a second row of rolling elements (10, 10a, 10b, 12, 12a, 12b) having a second pressure center (14) and a second contact angle, whereby said first pressure center (14) is arranged to coincide with said second pressure center (14) and whereby said first contact angle is the same as said second contact angle.

The invention is directed to a wind power plant having a rotor mounted rotatably about an axis directed approximately in the wind direction, and having at least two mutually concentric annular elements for connection to oppositely rotatable system components of the wind power plant, one of which comprises means for connection to the rotor of the wind power plant or to a drive shaft of a gearbox coupled thereto; at least one element having a freewheel characteristic is disposed between the two connection elements and together with them forms a freewheel, at least one connection element being provided with at least one integrated raceway for a row of rolling bodies rolling thereon.

Among other things, a radiation system is provided. The radiation system includes a stationary unit and a rotating unit that rotates about an axis relative to the stationary unit. A radiation source and a detector array are mounted to the rotating unit. A wheel mechanism at least partially supports the rotating unit and facilitates rotation of the rotating unit relative to the stationary unit. A lift unit is supported by the stationary unit and engages the rotating unit. When the lift unit is in a lowered position, the rotating unit is supported by the wheel mechanism and the lift unit is spaced a distance apart from the rotating unit. When the lift unit is in a raised position, the rotating unit is supported by the lift unit and the rotating unit is spaced a second distance apart from the wheel mechanism.

In a piston pump assembly, cradle bearings support a swash plate on an inner surface of a housing assembly. The cradle bearing and/or the corresponding portion of the housing inner surface may have undercut portions allowing deflection of an inward portion of the cradle bearing when the swash plate is subjected to pressure forces from hydraulic fluid compressed within pump cylinders by the pump pistons. Deflection of the cradle bearings allows increased contact pressure to be further distributed across the engaging surfaces of the swash plates and the cradle bearings.

A swash plate bearing is disclosed. The swash plate bearing may have an arcuate cage member having at least one flange and a plurality of rolling elements rotatably coupled to the at least one flange. A coupling seat extends laterally from the at least one flange, the coupling seat may have an insertion hole. A link member may be rotatably coupled to the cage member, the link member having a central portion positioned between a first terminal portion and a second terminal portion. A first stem connects the central portion to the first terminal portion and a second stem connects the central portion to the second terminal portion. The central portion is positioned in the insertion hole.

A bearing having an inner ring, an outer ring, and at least one seal arranged between the rings. The bearing including a protective cover that delimits an annular space into which the seal extends and provides an outer annular portion and at least one inner portion disposed radially facing and at a distance from one another, and a connecting annular portion linking the outer annular portion and the inner portion; and at least one means for fixing the protective cover onto the inner ring, the fixing means passing through the outer and inner portions of the protective cover and cooperating with the inner ring.

To provide a turbo compressor rotatable at high speed that is capable of being downsized, and of being suppressed in performance deterioration at low speed rotation. A turbo compressor includes a housing, a rotating shaft, a motor, a compressor mechanism, and a support section. The support section includes at least three rollers on the rotating shaft, roller shaft portions on the rollers, and a roller bearing portion for supporting the roller shaft portions. The rollers and the rotating shaft respectively have a drive transmission portion for drive transmission from the rotating shaft to each of the rollers, and the drive transmission portion of the rollers has a diameter larger than a diameter of the drive transmission portion of the rotating shaft.
