The shaft seal device includes a seal cover formed in a tubular shaped and provided on an outer periphery of a rotation shaft which is inserted into an axial hole of a housing, a flexible member that connects the seal cover to the housing, an auxiliary seal portion provided on an interior side of the shaft seal device in an axial direction of the seal cover, a magnetic fluid seal portion provided on an exterior side of the shaft seal device from the auxiliary seal portion in the axial direction of the seal cover, and bearings that support a load of the magnetic fluid seal portion.

A turbocharger includes a shaft, a compressor wheel, a turbine wheel, and a bearing assembly including an inner race, a first outer race spaced from the inner race, a second outer race spaced from the inner race, a first rolling element disposed between the first outer race and the inner race, and a second rolling element disposed between the second outer race and the inner race. The bearing assembly includes a first biasing member configured to bias the first outer race toward the second outer race and against the first rolling element, and preload the first rolling element with a preloading force, and a second biasing member configured to bias the second outer race toward the first outer race and against the second rolling element, and preload the second rolling element with a second preloading force. The first preloading force is different than the second preloading force.

A seal structure of a drive device is provided which includes a case in which a motor chamber for accommodating an electric motor and a gear chamber for accommodating a gear mechanism are located adjacent to each other, a partition that separates the motor chamber and the gear chamber, a bearing that supports a rotating shaft, a seal part that seals between the rotating shaft and the partition, a lubricating oil that lubricates the gear mechanism, and a coolant that cools the electric motor, and also includes a first bearing on the motor chamber side, a second bearing on the gear chamber side, a first seal part on the motor chamber side, a second seal part on the gear chamber side, and at least the second seal part of the first seal part and the second seal part is provided between the first bearing and the second bearing.

A gas turbine engine has: an engine shaft rotatable about a rotation axis; at least two bearings spaced apart from one another along the rotation axis, the at least two bearings having inner races for rotation with the engine shaft, outer races, and rolling elements disposed radially between the inner races and the outer races; a bearing support extending axially along the rotation axis from one of the at least two bearings to the other, the bearing support secured to both of the outer races of the at least two bearings, the bearing support secured to a structural case of the gas turbine engine via frangible tabs.

An article of manufacture for providing a lint roller assembly is disclosed. The lint roller assembly includes a handle having an opening to couple to a shaft component, a roller barrel having a shaft opening running lengthwise through the center of the roller barrel and a pair of bearing cavities at each end, the shaft component having a threaded end and an opposite end having a threaded retaining hole, and a pair of bearing components having an outer edge and an inner edge. The roller barrel being configured to retain a roll of adhesive material about the outer surface. The outer edge being coupled to the bearing cavities and the inner edge engaging the shaft component to permit the roller barrel to rotate about the shaft component.

A hub for a bicycle includes a hub shell and an axle device. The hub shell is supported rotatably relative to the axle device by way of bearing devices. A bearing device is configured as a roller bearing, and includes two bearing rings with rolling members disposed between, and is sealed axially outwardly. Between the bearing rings, the roller bearing includes a modular unit, at which a sealing unit is configured for laterally sealing the roller bearing, and including guide units protruding laterally inwardly from the modular unit for guiding the rolling members.

A hub for partially muscle-powered vehicles, including a hollow hub axle with a cylindrical inner through hole for the passage of a clamping axle, a hub shell rotatably supported relative to the hub axle by two hub bearings, a rotor rotatably supported relative to the hub axle, and a freewheel device with a hub-side freewheel component and a rotor-side freewheel component, each having axial engagement components for engagement with one another. The hub shell is rotatably supported relative to the hub axle in a rotor-side end region by a rotor-side hub bearing, and in an opposite end region of the hub shell by another hub bearing. The hub-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the hub shell. The rotor-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the rotor and is movable in the axial direction relative to the rotor and the hub shell between a freewheel position and an engagement position.

A high-efficiency, high specific power electric motor/generator for aircraft use provides a cantilevered external rotor removed from load thrust. and vibration by an isolator and hearing set between the rotor and stator reducing material demands and weight otherwise required for stiffness to preserve close rotor/stator proximity.

The motor includes a shaft, a cartridge including a plurality of bearings that support the shaft, and a sleeve that surrounds the bearings, and a housing including a bottom portion for receiving an impact from outside and an attaching portion provided in the bottom portion. The bottom portion of the housing extends in a direction intersecting with respect to a longitudinal direction of the shaft, and the cartridge is removably attached to the attaching portion.
