A rolling-element bearing unit for a wheel bearing assembly of a vehicle includes a first rolling-element bearing having an outer bearing ring and an inner bearing ring and rolling elements disposed between the outer bearing ring and the inner bearing ring and a first seal element having a seal-element base body having a first support member mounted to an axial outer surface of the inner bearing ring and a first seal lip pressed against a radial end surface of the outer bearing ring to hold the outer bearing ring in position relative to the inner bearing ring. Also a wheel bearing assembly including two such rolling element bearing units.

A multi-row bearing assembly includes first and second rolling-element bearings having first and second bearing rings and first and second rows of rolling elements therebetween, respectively, each ring having exactly one guide flange. An intermediate space exists between the first and second rows of rolling elements, and a first side of each row of rolling elements faces the intermediate space and a second side of each row of the rolling elements is remote from the intermediate space. The guide flanges of the first and third bearing rings guide the first sides of the rolling elements, and the guide flanges of the second and fourth bearing rings guide the second sides of the rolling elements.

An assembly includes a first structure, a first bearing assembly, and a second structure. The first structure has a first predetermined stiffness, and the first bearing assembly is mounted on the first structure. The second structure, which has a second predetermined stiffness, is mounted on the first bearing assembly, whereby relative motion about a first rotational axis is allowed between the first and second structure. At least one of the first structure and the second structure distort when a force is supplied thereto along the first rotational axis, and the distortion of at least one of the first structure and the second structure imparts a first preload force on the first bearing assembly.

A fan clutch assembly includes several features. A first feature relates to a lubrication passage that runs through the clutch package and has a return collection passage that extends through the operating piston. As a result, pitot tubes employed behind the piston may not be necessitated. Additionally, an anti-tamper device may be installed on the lead screw body to prevent adjustment of the fan hub and unintentional adjustment of the load carried on various bearings contained within the fan clutch assembly. Additionally, to position the speed sensor appropriately, a transfer shaft is provided that extends from the fan hub and/or lead screw back to the backside where a sensor is provided. This transfer shaft can be adjusted to precisely locate the sensor target relative to the sensor.

An electronic shift lever is provided and includes a housing which accommodates various components therein. A motor unit generates a driving force and a reduction unit is connected to the motor unit. The reduction unit is configured to increase the driving force generated from the motor unit. The motor unit and the reduction unit are accommodated inside the housing and are formed integrally with each other.

When compressed air does not act, a seal member is in contact with an outer periphery of an inner ring. When the compressed air acts, a contact area between the seal member and the outer periphery of the inner ring is reduced, as compared to when the compressed air does not act. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an air turbine bearing unit capable of promptly stopping rotation.

A stator unit includes a base member including a bearing housing extending along a rotation axis, a stator fixed to an outer circumferential surface of the bearing housing, and a molding resin part covering the stator. The stator includes a stator core having teeth protruding radially outward, an insulator for partially covering a surface of the stator core, and coils. A non-sealed space connected to an external space of the stator unit and a sealed space connected to an internal space of the stator unit are opposed through a contact location where the bearing housing or the base member makes contact with the molding resin part or the insulator. An angle α of the non-sealed space and an angle β of the sealed space opposed to each other through the contact location in a cross section including the rotation axis are set to satisfy a relationship of α>β.

This invention relates to cutting tools used to machine materials to produce new surfaces and chips of removed material. Embodiments of this invention allow round rotating cutting inserts to be used in a more economical way, with improved accuracy, with improved sealing, and with greater ease of use. The rotary support device and cutting inserts may be used in either radial or tangential mounting types of cutters. It also provides a built-in, fully sealed means of fine adjustment of the cutting insert that is useful in some applications.

An interdigitated turbine assembly for a gas turbine engine, the interdigitated turbine assembly including a first turbine rotor assembly interdigitated with a second turbine rotor assembly. A first static frame is positioned forward of the first turbine rotor assembly and the second turbine rotor assembly. The first turbine rotor assembly is operably coupled to an inner rotatable component of a gear assembly. The second turbine rotor assembly is operably coupled to an outer rotatable component of the gear assembly. The static structure is connected to the first static frame. A driveshaft is operably coupled to the outer rotatable component. A first bearing assembly is operably coupled to the driveshaft and the first static frame. A second bearing assembly is operably coupled to the first static frame and first turbine rotor assembly. A third bearing assembly is operably coupled to the first turbine rotor assembly and the second turbine rotor assembly.
