Provided is a hub unit bearing wherein a cover can be firmly fitted with an outer ring member, and it is difficult for foreign matter to enter inside through a water drainage hole formed in the cover. The cover that covers the inside end section in the axial direction of the hub unit bearing includes a disk section, a small-diameter cylindrical section bent in the axial direction from the outer perimeter edge section of the disk section and a large-diameter cylindrical section. A cut and raised section that is cut and raised toward the inside in the radial direction is formed in the small-diameter cylindrical section, and a water drainage hole that passes through from inside to outside the cover is provided in the portion that is cut and separated from the small-diameter cylindrical section.

A bearing housing for a turbocharger is disclosed. The bearing housing includes a first end proximate to a turbine wheel of the turbocharger and a second end proximate to a compressor wheel of the turbocharger. The bearing housing further includes a central chamber disposed between the first end and the second end and configured to house, at least, the shaft. The bearing housing further includes an oil drain disposed radially outward of the shaft and configured for directing oil out of the bearing housing and an oil core disposed radially outward of the shaft and radially inward of the oil drain, the oil core configured for communicating oil towards the oil drain and having an inner wall. The bearing housing includes one or more strakes protruding radially inward from the inner wall, the one or more strakes configured to direct oil within the oil core towards the oil drain.

A load balancing arm for a medical device support system. The load balancing arm includes a proximal hub, an adjustable bearing element, a support arm, a spring and a link. A distal end of the support arm is configured to support a medical device load and a proximal end is pivotably mounted to a main bearing element for pivotable movement about a main pivot axis. The spring extends within a cavity of the support arm and is mounted to exert a biasing force between the main pivot axis and a distal end of the spring. The link has a proximal end pivotably mounted to the adjustable bearing element for pivotable movement about an adjustable pivot axis, and a distal end pivotably mounted to the distal end of the spring such that the biasing force exerted by the spring is transmitted through the link to the adjustable bearing element.

An axle box-bearing unit for an axle including a housing element and a sensor unit having a sensor module, a connection piece for connecting to a processing unit and a flexible electrical cable joining the sensor module and the connection piece into a single part. The housing element is delimited by an annular lateral wall provided with a transversal through hole engaged by a plug fitted in a fluid-tight manner to the flexible electrical cable between the sensor module and the connection piece. A first plate provided with a second through hole is rigidly connected to the lateral wall of the housing element, with the second hole aligned with the first hole and crossed through by the plug, a second U-shaped plate is fitted astride of the plug to connect with one end of same that projects radially from the holes and is rigidly connected to the first plate.

A lubricating oil passage structure for a bearing of an oil cooled rotating machine includes a bearing (114) arranged in the center of a bracket (111) to rotatably support a rotary shaft (101). Protruding ribs (116, 117, 117a) are spirally arranged on the inner surface of the bracket (111). Also, a bearing rib (112) having an oil passage groove (113) for supplying the bearing (114) with lubricating oil is formed on the inner surface of the bracket (111). An upper projection hole (110) is formed in the upper portion of the bracket (111) for introducing the lubricating oil. The protruding ribs located on the right and left of the upper projection hole (110) in the circumferential direction are the upper protruding ribs (116) which function as guides for guiding the lubricating oil to the bearing rib. Therefore, the lubricating oil passage structure constitutes a structure that captures the lubricating oil and guides the oil to the bearing (114) without reducing the support rigidity of the bearing, while also constituting a rib structure capable of both improving the support rigidity of the bearing and inhibiting failure of the bearing (114).

A vapor compression system including a motor having a housing and a shaft having an axis, the shaft urgable into rotational movement by the motor for powering a system component. A primary bearing and a secondary bearing are positioned in the housing for rotatably supporting the shaft, the primary bearing rotatably supporting the shaft during normal system operation. A first bearing stop and a second bearing stop are positioned on opposite sides of the secondary bearing for transmitting axial forces generated along the shaft for reaction by the motor housing during abnormal system operation. At least a portion of corresponding surfaces of each of the first bearing stop and the second bearing stop facing the secondary bearing have a protective overlying layer of material applied thereto.

A bearing system that accepts a journal of a roll includes a housing defining a cavity and having a forward wall that defines an opening into the cavity, the opening configured to accept the journal through the opening and into the cavity. A sleeve is positioned within the cavity of the housing, the sleeve configured to surround the end of the journal. A first seal is positioned within the cavity of the housing adjacent to the forward wall of the housing, the first seal having an engagement surface. A second seal is positioned within the cavity of the housing and operably connected to the sleeve, the second seal having an engagement surface in contact with the engagement surface of the first seal.

An active roll stabilizer includes a divided torsion bar (1) having torsion bar parts (2, 3) which are arranged one behind the other along a torsion bar axis. An actuator (4) for transmitting torsional torques to the torsion bar (1) is provided. An electric motor (7) and a transmission (6) connected to the electric motor (7) are arranged in an actuator housing (5). The actuator housing (5) is connected to the one torsion bar part (2) for conjoint rotation and the transmission (6) is connected, on the output side, to the other torsion bar part (3) for conjoint rotation. A motor housing (11) of the electric motor (7) is connected, by means of only one of the two axial ends of said motor housing, to the actuator housing (5) for conjoint rotation.
