A tiltrotor aircraft may be provided and may include a mast assembly, in which the mast assembly may include a mast; a bearing system; a housing; and a housing cap secured to the housing, wherein the bearing system is between the mast and the housing. The bearing system may further include a first bearing assembly including a first inner race, a first outer race, and a plurality of first tapered roller bearings; a second bearing assembly including a second inner race, a second outer race, and a plurality of second tapered roller bearings; an inner spacer and an outer spacer in which the inner and outer spacers are between the first and second bearing assemblies; and a retaining device in which the retaining device and the housing cap provide, at least in part, pre-loading for the first and second bearing assemblies.

The present disclosure provides a bearing assembly, a rotor assembly and a draught fan. The bearing assembly has a shaft sleeve and a shaft extending through the shaft sleeve. An inner wall of the shaft sleeve is provided with two grooves in a circumferential direction. The shaft is provided with two channels corresponding to the two grooves respectively. The channels and the grooves form two raceways. Multiple rolling bodies are disposed between the shaft and the shaft sleeve and movable in the raceways. The shaft sleeve has an outer diameter of 13 mm, and a portion of the shaft extending within the shaft sleeve has a diameter of 5 mm.

A spindle device includes: a spindle shaft; a first housing configured to house the spindle shaft to which a gas is supplied, the first housing having a bearing that rotatably supports the spindle shaft; a motor located at an end of the spindle shaft and configured to rotate the spindle shaft; a second housing configured to house the motor, the second housing being joined to the first housing; and a duct having one end located at the bottom of a space inside the second housing and another end projecting from the second housing.

A rolling bearing device includes a rotary shaft; a housing; a pair of rolling bearings; an outer ring spacer; an elastic member provided in a bottom side of the housing, the bottom side of the housing being a second axial side of the housing, and the elastic member being configured to urge the rolling bearings, the outer ring spacer, and the rotary shaft toward a first axial side; and a retaining ring that is fitted into a circumferential groove provided on an inner periphery in the first axial side of the housing, the retaining ring being in axial contact with the outer ring of the rolling bearing located on the first axial side, and the retaining ring including at least three arc members arranged in a circumferential direction.

The present disclosure discloses a magnetic liquid sealing device adapted to axial and radial displacements of connection, which includes: an end cover; a rubber-sealing-ring equipped first clamping plate fixed on the end cover by a first screw and a second screw; a rubber-sealing-ring equipped second clamping plate installed in a groove of the end cover; a fundamental sealing structure fixed on the rubber-sealing-ring equipped second clamping plate by a third screw and a fourth screw, so as to be isolated from the end cover by the rubber-sealing-ring equipped first clamping plate and the rubber-sealing-ring equipped second clamping plate. The device isolates the connected component from the magnetic liquid sealing structure by the two clamping plates, such that the axial and radial deformations and displacements of the connected component will not be loaded on parts in magnetic liquid sealing structure, prolonging the service life of the magnetic liquid sealing.

A detecting apparatus for detecting displacement of a bearing unit sandwiched between a spindle extending in an axial direction and a spindle seat is provided. The detecting apparatus includes a detector unit and a control unit. The detector unit includes a pair of sensing devices with each sensing device including a sensor that abuts against an end surface of an outer ring of the bearing unit and outputting, based on a sensing of the sensor thereof, a detected signal associated with a displacement of the end surface in the axial direction. The control unit is configured to determine whether the bearing unit is abnormal based on the detected signals.

A tiltrotor aircraft may be provided and may include a mast assembly, in which the mast assembly may include a mast; a bearing system; a housing; and a housing cap secured to the housing, wherein the bearing system is between the mast and the housing. The bearing system may further include a first bearing assembly including a first inner race, a first outer race, and a plurality of first tapered roller bearings; a second bearing assembly including a second inner race, a second outer race, and a plurality of second tapered roller bearings; an inner spacer and an outer spacer in which the inner and outer spacers are between the first and second bearing assemblies; and a retaining device in which the retaining device and the housing cap provide, at least in part, pre-loading for the first and second bearing assemblies.

In one example, a lift assembly may exert a force on a rotatable anode of an X-ray source. The lift assembly may include a lift shaft and a lift electromagnet. The lift shaft may be coupled to an anode and configured to rotate around an axis of rotation of the anode. The lift electromagnet may be configured to apply a magnetic force to the lift shaft in a radial direction. The lift electromagnet may include a coupling portion extending between an interior of a vacuum envelope and an exterior of the vacuum envelope and a winding portion coupled to the coupling portion. Windings may at least partially surround the winding portion.
