A sealing system for a roller bearing including a first annular shield and a first sealing cover. A first face of each that includes a coupling surface that is covered with a rubbery coating made of a synthetic rubber. The coupling surface of the first annular shield is coupled to a corresponding coupling surface of a rotating ring of the roller bearing, and the coupling surface of the first sealing cover is coupled to a corresponding coupling surface of an outer ring of the roller bearing. Each of the first annular shield and the first sealing cover is pressed from a metal sheet with a first face entirely rubberized with the rubbery coating.

A rolling bearing includes: inner and outer rings; a plurality of balls; a retainer configured to retain the plurality of balls; and a seal member attached to the outer ring and configured to close a bearing space between the inner ring and the outer ring. The seal member is a contact seal including a lip configured to come into contact with the seal groove. The seal groove has an outer groove wall surface which is an inclined surface which is inclined toward an outer diametric side as the inclined surface extends outward in an axial direction. The lip has a tip end part having a round shape so that the tip end part contacts the outer groove wall surface of the seal groove at from 80 to 100. The outer groove wall surface has an inclination angle of from 55 to 65 with respect to the axial direction.

Disclosed is a paper-sheet-feeding/conveying roller having a shaft, and a bi-layer roller material which is formed of an inner layer provided on the shaft and an outer layer. The inner layer provided on the shaft is a foamed elastic layer. The outer layer provided on the foamed elastic layer is a non-foamed elastic layer. The foamed elastic layer is formed of a foamed elastic body of silicone-modified EPDM.

A slewing bearing providing a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, and at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings. The slewing bearing is further provided with a sealing device including at least one seal having an annular heel fixed to the first ring, and a sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with the second ring, and a deflector mounted to a lateral surface of second ring and having a deflecting part that at least partially radially surrounds the sealing lip.

A slewing bearing including a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings, and at least two seals having each an annular heel mounted on a cylindrical frontal surface of first ring, and an oblique sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with part of the second ring. The slewing bearing further includes a guiding ring axially arranged between the two seals. The guiding ring provides a flange that prevents the reversion of one sealing lip, and an annular axial collar that radially blocks the annular heel of the other seal in a radial outwards direction.

A slewing bearing including a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings, and at least one seal mounted in a circumferential groove of first ring. A cap is fixed to the first ring and provides a cap sealing member having an annular heel mounted in an circumferential slot formed on a frontal surface of cap, and a sealing lip projecting from the heel and towards the second ring. The sealing lip has a free end in sliding frictional contact with part of the second ring.

A riser tensioner bearing is provided. The riser tensioner bearing is an asymmetric bearing having an outer member comprising a cylindrical outer profile and an at least partially spherical interior profile, and an inner member comprising an at least partially spherical outer profile and a substantially cylindrical outer profile.

Bearing 11 has base material 110 and coating layer 111. Base material 110 contains crank shaft 13 on an inner circumferential surface side. The inner circumferential surface of base material 110 is coated with coating layer 111. The inner circumferential surface side of base material 110 is coated with a resin with a thickness t, the resin is dried, and thereafter surface treatment is carried out such that multiple grooves C are provided on the surface of the resin so as to intersect with the direction of crank shaft 13, whereby coating layer 111 is formed. Peak portions B formed between adjacent grooves C come into contact with the outer circumferential surface of crank shaft 13 to support crank shaft 13. With bearing 11, the thickness of peak portions B at the center in the direction of the crank shaft 13 differs from the thickness of peak portions B at the end.

An elastomeric bearing assembly has a housing, a centrifugal force bearing axially captured relative to the housing, and a sliding cap disposed between the housing and the centrifugal force bearing.

A bearing system for a rotating vertical shaft includes a first ball bearing, having a first pitch diameter and a first axial stiffness and a second ball bearing having a second pitch diameter and a second axial stiffness. The first ball bearing is a deep groove Conrad bearing. The second ball bearing is an angular contact bearing. The first and second ball bearings are coaxial, secured to one another and rotatable together. The first pitch diameter is at least 1.5 times greater than the second pitch diameter. The bearing system has an axial stiffness ratio defined by the first axial stiffness divided by the second axial stiffness. The axial stiffness ratio is based on an axial preload force applied to the second outer ring such that an operating torque of the bearing system is within a predetermined range at temperatures from minus 40 to positive 85 degrees Celsius.
