A rotary sealing arrangement comprises a housing, a shaft mounted for rotation within the housing about a shaft axis (A) and a rotary seal provided between the housing and the shaft. The rotary seal comprises a static seal element mounted to the housing and a rotary sealing element mounted for rotation with the shaft. The static seal element comprises a mounting part and a flexible lip seal extending from the mounting part in an axial direction relative to the shaft. The rotary seal element comprises a seal body comprising an axially facing sealing face. The lip seal resiliently engages the sealing face of the seal body. The static seal element and the rotary seal element are mounted such that the relative axial positions of the static seal element and the rotary seal element can be adjusted.

A device includes a lower support cap, an upper bearing cap, at least one bearing disposed between the caps and at least one annular seal. The seal provides a claw secured by mechanical connection to the upper support cap, a sealing lip extending obliquely from the claw in the direction of the upper bearing cap.

A grounding apparatus for an electrical drive assembly configured for conducting an electrical charge and/or voltage from a rotor of an electric motor via a shaft as a first grounding partner to a second grounding partner. The grounding apparatus has: a supporting body device with a connecting section for electrical and mechanical connection to one of the grounding partners, and a supporting section; a contacting device having a contacting section for electrical connection to the other of the grounding partners, the contacting device having an attachment section and being connected to the supporting section of the supporting body device via the attachment section. The grounding apparatus bridges an annular gap between one grounding partner and the other, and the grounding apparatus has at least one opening which forms or helps to form an air passage in the annular gap in an axial direction.

A follower bearing 1 includes: a shaft 30 having an outer peripheral surface including an annular first raceway surface 11; an outer ring 60 having an inner peripheral surface including an annular second raceway surface 41 facing the first raceway surface 11; and a plurality of rollers 70 disposed on an annular raceway along the first raceway surface 11 and the second raceway surface 41 to be in contact with the first raceway surface 11 and the second raceway surface 41. The outer ring 60 includes an annular first member 40 made of steel and an annular second member 50 made of a resin and covering outer peripheral surfaces 44A and 44B of the first member 40. The first member 40 includes a cylindrical portion 42 having a hollow cylindrical shape and including the second raceway surface, and a projection 43 extending radially outward from the cylindrical portion 42. Ends of the projection 43 in the axial direction are filled with the second member 50.

A sealing device configured to be mounted on a rolling bearing provided for a wheel bearing device, the wheel bearing device including an axle pipe and a rolling bearing being fitted onto an outer circumferential stepped portion formed on an outer circumference of the axle pipe to rotatably support a wheel, the sealing device being mounted between an outer ring and an inner ring. The sealing device includes a slinger member having a first cylindrical portion, a disk portion, and a second cylindrical portion; a core body member having a cylindrical portion and a disk portion; and a seal body made of an elastic material. An inner circumferential face of a seal body cylindrical portion has an inclined portion constituting a labyrinth of which diameter gradually increases toward one side from the other side in the axial direction between the inner circumferential face and the second cylindrical portion.

A device for transferring a pressurized fluid from a stationary source into a rotating spindle shaft includes a stationary housing including an internal socket having a socket wall and a rotatable shaft extending into the socket. The shaft includes an outer surface and a shaft bore having inlet and outlet ends. The device includes a washer positioned over the shaft and including a first flat side surface and a second side surface having at least a portion angled with respect to the first flat side surface in operative contact with the socket wall. The device includes a bushing positioned over the shaft and including a bore having an inner surface spaced apart from the outer surface of the shaft by a gap. The bushing includes a first end surface proximate the inlet end and a second end surface in operative contact with the first flat side surface of the washer.

A split bearing protector with a flexible design that adds improved moisture protection to a bearing and can be installed without removing the bearing from the machine in which it is installed.

A hub structure includes an axle housing, a hub having an insertion hole in a vehicle width direction through which the axle housing is inserted, and an inner bearing disposed between the hub and the axle housing in the insertion hole and rotatably supporting the hub with respect to the axle housing, and an oil seal disposed between the hub and the axle housing in the insertion hole on an inner side relative to the inner bearing in the vehicle width direction. A spacer is provided between the inner bearing and the oil seal in the insertion hole. The spacer has an outer end surface that is contactable with an inner end surface of an inner race of the inner bearing.

The shaft seal device includes a seal cover formed in a tubular shaped and provided on an outer periphery of a rotation shaft which is inserted into an axial hole of a housing, a flexible member that connects the seal cover to the housing, an auxiliary seal portion provided on an interior side of the shaft seal device in an axial direction of the seal cover, a magnetic fluid seal portion provided on an exterior side of the shaft seal device from the auxiliary seal portion in the axial direction of the seal cover, and bearings that support a load of the magnetic fluid seal portion.
