A method for producing a bearing, in particular a hydraulic axle support bearing, which comprises the following steps: preassembling an inner part in an outer part with an elastomer body which is arranged in between and is reinforced by a plastic cage which at least partially bears against an inner wall of the outer part. The plastic cage is configured to radially protrude over an upper edge and a lower edge of the out part and, at the lower edge of the outer part, to project over the latter. Simultaneously calibrating the outer part and the plastic cage by constricting the outer part and the plastic cage from a respective first diameter to a respective second diameter which is smaller than the respective first diameter. After the constriction, the plastic cage projects over the upper edge of the outer part for the form-fitting axial securing of the outer part.

A drive device (1) for motorized actuation of a functional element of a motor vehicle has an electric motor (2) with a motor shaft (3) and also has a worm shaft (4) of a worm gearing. A first end of the worm shaft is connected to the motor shaft (3) and a second end is received in a radial bearing (5). The radial bearing (5) has a bearing body (21) with an outer surface mounted in a housing (11) and at least one annular bearing element (24) is mounted to the worm shaft (4). The bearing element (24) is elastic at least in a partial region to ensure compensation for tolerances in the region of the radial bearing.

There is provided an apparatus for delivering a flow of gas having a controller, a housing defining a gasflow passage, a motor with an impeller to deliver gas through the gasflow passage, and a flexible printed circuit electrically connected to the motor for electrically connecting the motor to the controller. There is also provided an apparatus for delivering a flow of gas having a housing defining a gasflow passage. The gas flowing through the gasflow passage is a high concentration oxygen gas. The apparatus has a motor with windings and an impeller to deliver gas through the gasflow passage, and an elastomeric shield to pneumatically isolate the windings from the gasflow passage.

A bearing holder includes an inner portion and an outer portion, wherein the inner portion includes a receiving contour for receiving the bearing and the outer portion is configured to be mounted on a housing. A transition area between the inner portion and the outer portion includes a spring. The transition area is at least partly in a plane perpendicular to an axial axis of the receiving contour and is at least partly in a plane with at least one part of the inner and the outer portion. The transition area includes an attenuator and the attenuator is configured to attenuate a vibration of the inner portion to reduce a transfer of the vibration from the inner portion to the outer portion. Further, an electric motor, a method for producing a bearing holder and a method for operating a bearing holder are described.

This aerodynamic foil bearing has a sleeve (4) inside which are arranged: a foil referred to as the top foil (16), and a bump foil (14) arranged between the top foil (16) and the sleeve (4), a foil (12) of viscoelastic material arranged between an inner face of the sleeve (4) and the bump foil (14).

A rubber-metal sleeve bearing includes an outer sleeve having a first outer edge and a second outer edge in opposing relationship to the first outer edge, when viewed in an axial direction. The first and second outer edges each have at least one section provided with radially inwardly recessed outer edge regions. An inner sleeve is disposed in concentric relation to the outer sleeve, and an intermediate sleeve is disposed concentrically between the outer and inner sleeves and connected to the outer sleeve via a first elastomer layer and to the inner sleeve via a second elastomer layer.

An elastomeric bushing for a bearing. The bushing can, even after installation in the bearing, be pretensioned or calibrated, by displacement of elastomeric material in the interior of the bushing, where the displacement is carried out by different pressing mechanism and tensioning mechanism in the bushing and/or in the surrounding bearing.

A guard tube assembly for a drive shaft of a power tool has a guard tube with a tube cross section deviating from a circular shape and having an inner contour and a center. An inner support tube inside the guard tube supports the drive shaft. The inner support tube has a bearing sleeve supported by support elements on the inner contour. The inner contour has a first and a second circumferential section. The first circumferential section has a smallest spacing to the center and the second circumferential section has a largest spacing to the center. The elastic support elements have a contact surface contacting the inner contour and spaced at a contact surface spacing to the center. The contact surface spacing is longer than the smallest spacing of the first circumferential section and shorter than or identical to the largest spacing of the second circumferential section.

The present invention relates to a bearing assembly (10) for a drives haft system comprising a frame (12) surrounding an opening (16); a flexible vibration isolator (20) disposed in the opening (16) and a ball bearing (50) is mounted at a central opening (24) of the vibration isolator (20). The ball bearing assembly (10) comprises a spherical cup (40) is nested to a central opening (24) of the vibration isolator (20) and spherically pivoted such that in an adjustment position changing the rotational axis (x) of the ball bearing (50) by a deviation angle (a) when a rotational force is applied.

A device for manufacturing bushings faster and for allowing a continuous manufacture process is provided. An elastic material with a bigger cross section area can be assembled between outer and inner sleeves with smaller cross section area. Many bushings can be assembled at the same time in each production cycle. The elastic material can be pressed together in one gripping element and stretched over a second gripping element before gripping and stretching take place.
