MOTOR
Disclosed herein is a motor including a bearing in which a rolling member is disposed between an inner ring and an outer ring, a spring connected to the outer ring, and a pusher connected to the spring to be retracted to a first position spaced apart from the inner ring by the spring, and to be advanced to a second position at which friction with the inner ring is caused by a pressure of air acting on a pressure surface when the pressure surface on which the pressure of air flowing by the impeller acts is formed, wherein the inner ring is spaced apart from the rotating shaft by a gap formed between the inner ring and the rotating shaft when the pusher is at the second position.
Flexible preloaded ball bearing assembly
A preloaded ball bearing assembly includes a primary bearing assembly disposed between a rotating component and a static structure. The assembly also includes a preload bearing assembly disposed in contact with the rotating component. The assembly further includes a flexible support disposed between the primary bearing assembly and the preload bearing assembly.
Anti-creep deep groove ball bearing
An anti-creep deep groove ball bearing is provided for a transmission of a vehicle. The bearing has rolling elements and two rings, each ring having a groove. One of the grooves is a half groove while the other groove is a full deep groove. The half groove arrangement allows for additional rolling elements and a greater thickness in one of the rings.
ANTI-CREEP DEEP GROOVE BALL BEARING
An anti-creep deep groove ball bearing is provided for a transmission of a vehicle. The bearing has rolling elements and two rings, each ring having a groove. One of the grooves is a half groove while the other groove is a full deep groove. The half groove arrangement allows for additional rolling elements and a greater thickness in one of the rings.
DUAL-TYPE STRAIN WAVE GEARING
An externally toothed gear of a dual-type strain wave gearing is provided with first and second external teeth having different teeth numbers, and a gap formed between these teeth as a cutter clearance area for tooth cutters. Where L1 is the maximum width of the gap, t1 is a depth from the tooth top land of the first external teeth to the deepest part of the gap, h1 is the tooth depth of the first external teeth, t2 is a depth from the tooth top land of the second external teeth to the deepest part, and h2 is the tooth depth of the second external teeth, any one of the following conditions 1 to 3 is satisfied:
L1=0.1L0.35L, t1=0.9h11.3h1, and t2=0.3h20.9h2Condition 1:
L1=0.1L0.35L, t1=0.3h10.9h1, and t2=0.9h21.3h2Condition 2:
L1=0.1L0.35L, t1=0.3h10.9h1, and t2=0.3h20.9h2Condition 3:
It is possible to obtain a dual-type strain wave gearing in which wear resistance and tooth bottom fatigue strength are increased.
BUTTERFLY VALVE
A butterfly valve that is capable of reducing torque and enables a manufacturer that manufactures and sells the butterfly valve to implement management on qualities such as sealing performance. A butterfly valve 10 includes a shaft member 100, a tabular valve body that is provided on the shaft member 100, a case 310 that is attachable to and detachable from a through-hole 510 formed in an attachment member 500 to which the butterfly valve 10 is configured to be attached, a pair of bearings 320 that is provided in the case 310 and rotatably supports the shaft member 100, and a magnetic fluid seal that is provided between the pair of bearings 320 in the case 310 and seals an annular gap between the case 310 and the shaft member 100.
UNDERWATER PROPELLER AND SUBMERSIBLE
Provided is a propeller for a submersible, comprising a housing (1) having a cylindrical structure with two open ends, a stator sleeve (2) having a cylindrical structure with one open end, the stator sleeve suspended in an internal cavity of the housing (1), a motor stator (3) fixed inside the stator sleeve (2), a rotor sleeve (4) having a cylindrical structure with one open end and disposed on the stator sleeve (2), a motor rotor (5) fixed to an inner wall of the rotor sleeve (4), and a propeller (6) fixed to an outer wall of the rotor sleeve (4). The propeller (6) of the underwater propeller is directly fixed to the rotor sleeve (4) so that the structure of the motor is compact, and the rotational shaft transmission is not required so that the length of the propeller is shortened and the volume is reduced.
SPEED REDUCER WITH ELECTRIC MOTOR
This speed reducer with an electric motor has: a hollow shaft; a casing fixed to the hollow shaft; a fixed part that is relatively stationary with respect to the casing; an electric motor; a speed reduction mechanism; an output part; and a torque sensor that is connected to the casing and the fixed part. The torque sensor has an elastically deformable strain body that has an annular outer ring and an annular inner ring and a plurality of strain sensors. The outer ring and the inner ring are respectively located at an end portion on the radial outside and the radial inside of the torque sensor and is connected to one of the casing and the fixed part. Each of the plurality of strain sensors is at least partially located in a radial direction between the outer ring and the inner ring.
LOW AXIAL RUNOUT DRIVEN PULLEY THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF A SPINDLE SHAFT UTILIZING MULTIPLE SETS OF BEARINGS WITH RADIAL CLEARANCE TO THE SHAFT
A low axial runout driven pulley through the application of a spindle shaft utilizing multiple sets of bearings with radial clearance to the shaft. Utilizing a belt-driven pulley supporting overhanging loads with low axial runout provided by a spindle shaft with radial clearance to supporting bearings. Further axial clamp loading may be provided through multiple sets of bearings by the application of a fastener, such as a shaft bolt and a sleeve that press against the inner races of the bearings in the axial direction with this clamp load. The belt-driven pulley with low axial runout through the application of a spindle shaft utilizing at least two sets of bearings with radial clearance to the shaft may be utilized with heavy-duty trucking, marine, industrial, and other systems that utilize an overhung driven component.
