Drive mechanism for rotatably coupling a system part or a machine part
The invention relates to a drive mechanism (1) for rotatably coupling a first system part or machine part, preferably an assembly (A), to a base, pedestal or frame or to another system part or machine part, for example for rotary positioning during the processing of large workpieces or during the moving of loads, which drive mechanism comprises two ring-shaped connecting elements (3, 4) each having at least one planar connecting surface (5, 6) and fastening means (7, 8) that are arranged distributed in a crown shape therein and effect connection to different system parts or machine parts or the like, said two connecting elements (3, 4) being arranged concentrically with each other and radially one inside the other with a gap-shaped interspace (9) in which are disposed one or more rows of rolling elements (14, 15, 16), each row whereof rolls between two respective raceways (17, 18) on the two connecting elements (3, 4), thus enabling same to rotate relative to each other, at least one connecting surface (5, 6) and at least one raceway (17, 18) being formed by machining or shaping a common base body. The invention is characterized in that at least one fully circumferentially extending row of magnets (40) is arranged inside the gap (9) on one connecting element (3, 4) and at least one fully circumferentially extending row of coils (38) is arranged directly opposite said magnets on the other connecting element (4, 3). According to the invention, at least one fully circumferentially extending row of magnets is arranged inside the gap on one connecting element and at least one fully circumferentially extending row of coils is arranged directly opposite said magnets on the other connecting element.
Bearing assembly with combination set screw and concentric shaft locking mechanism
A bearing assembly has an inner ring with an inner diameter configured to receive a shaft. The inner ring has axial slots and at least two radial holes. A collar configured to surround the inner ring is provided. The collar has two radial holes. Each of the collar radial holes is alignable with the at least two inner ring radial holes. Each of the collar radial holes is configured to threadably receive set screws extendable from the collar through the at least two radial holes of the inner ring to engage the shaft. The collar has a radial slot and is adjustable to compress the radial slot to tighten the collar around the inner ring and the inner ring around the shaft. In the alternative, the bearing assembly may be provided with two collars—one for a set screw only configuration and another for a concentric clamping only configuration.
Bearing steel and method for producing same
A bearing steel includes, as a metallographic structure, inclusions which contain complex oxysulfides including Rare Earth Metal, Ca, O, S, and Al, TiN, MnS, Al.sub.2O.sub.3, and complex oxides including Al and Ca, wherein, a number fraction of the complex oxysulfides in a total number of the inclusions is 50% to less than 100% and a number of complex oxysulfides having a major axis of 5 μm or more is 0.001 pieces to 2 pieces in an observed section of 1 mm.sup.2, and a number of TiN existing independently from the complex oxysulfides and having a major axis of 5 μm or more is 0.001 pieces to less than 1.0 piece in an observed section of 1 mm.sup.2.
Adjustable linking arm assembly
A linking arm assembly adapted to receive and retain a ball stud. The assembly includes an elongated rod structure and a socket head and is variable over a range of lengths by adjustment of the relative position of the elongated rod structure and the socket head. Linking arm assemblies consistent with the present disclosure may be adjusted for use in different applications while using common components.
Method for assembling dual-head pulling rods
A method for assembling a dual-head pulling rod involves attaching pulling heads to two ends of a rod body through threaded connection using a system that includes a foundation, on which a rod dispensing device, an inclined guiding plate, a conveying flap, a head dispensing device, a head mounting unit, a clamping device, an assembling device and a V-shaped output channel are provided. The inclined guiding plate is inclined and uses its ramp to guide a rod body falling thereon. The conveying flap is swingable between an input position and an output position. The conveying flap at the input position receives the rod body coining from the inclined guiding plate and outputs the rod body to the clamping device.
Device for measuring force in the rolling bearing by means of a sensor layer
A measurement bearing is provided. The measurement bearing has a rolling bearing, at least one force-introducing ring and a space for at least one sensor layer, the space being surrounded by the at least one force-introducing ring and at least one other adjacent component of the measurement bearing.
RESIN CAGE FOR TAPERED ROLLER BEARING AND TAPERED ROLLER BEARING INCLUDING THE RESIN CAGE
Provided is a resin cage for a tapered roller bearing in which a mold parting line which is extended in an axial direction is formed in a pillar portion defining a pocket. On facing surfaces of adjacent pillar portions, on an outer diameter side from the mold parting line, a first conical surface which slides in contact with an outer peripheral surface of a tapered roller is formed, and a first flat surface in a radial direction is formed in a portion on the outer diameter side from the first conical surface. On an inner diameter side from the mold parting line, a second conical surface which slides in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the tapered roller is formed, and a second flat surface in a radial direction is formed in a portion on the inner diameter side from the second conical surface
CAGE FOR TAPER ROLLER BEARING AND TAPER ROLLER BEARING
A cage made of a resin includes: a small-diameter annular portion on one side in an axial direction; a large-diameter annular portion on the other side in the axial direction; and a plurality of column portions which link the small-diameter annular portion and the large-diameter annular portion to each other. Spaces which are formed between the large-diameter annular portion and the small-diameter annular portion and between the column portions adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction are pockets which hold the taper rollers. A surface of the entire cage including the small-diameter annular portion, the large-diameter annular portion, and all of the column portions is configured by aggregating a surface viewed from the one axial side and a surface viewed from the other axial side.
ROLLING BEARING
It is an object of the present invention to more reliably prevent foreign matter from floating in the bearing space of a rolling bearing, while maintaining lubrication performance in the rolling bearing. In order to achieve this object, a rolling bearing is provided which includes an outer race, an inner race, rolling elements mounted between the outer race and the inner race, a seal ring formed with an oil passage hole, and covering at least one of the axial end openings of the bearing space of the bearing, a filter mounted to the seal ring so as to cover the oil passage hole of the seal ring, and configured to catch foreign matter contained in lubricant oil, and a magnetic member mounted axially inwardly of, and adjacent to, the filter, and configured to attract foreign matter to the magnetic member due to the magnetic force of the magnetic member.
TAPER ROLLER BEARING
A taper roller bearing includes: an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of taper rollers in which a cavity portions are formed on a large end surface, and an annular cage. The cage includes a small-diameter annular portion on one axial side, a large-diameter annular portion which is positioned on the other axial side and on the outer side in the radial direction of the large flange, and a plurality of column portions. An outer diameter of an axial inner surface included in the large-diameter annular portion is greater than a diameter of a virtual circle that links outer end portions in the radial direction of the cavity portions of the plurality of taper rollers.
