Carrier bearing assembly
10471825 · 2019-11-12 · ·

A carrier bearing assembly can include a bracket comprising a first end, a second end, a first face extending between the first end and the second end width, and a second face opposite the first face. An opening can be formed completely through the bracket and extend from the first face to the second face. A bearing can be disposed within the opening and an angle between a centerline of the bearing and a centerline of the bracket can be in a range of 85-89 or 91-95. First and second mounting structures offset from the opening can be for coupling the carrier bearing assembly to the frame of the UTV, and the centerline of the bracket can pass through a center of the first mounting structure and a center of the second mounting structure.

SHAFT ASSEMBLY
20190301397 · 2019-10-03 ·

A shaft assembly may include two or more Poka-Yoke bearing caps, each Poka-Yoke bearing cap having a pair of reference bores offset from a central axis of the bearing cap by differing offset distances, and each bearing cap defining a semi-circular recess that is positioned so as to align in use a central axis of the semi-cylindrical recess in the bearing cap with an axis of rotation of a shaft rotatably supported by the bearing cap. The differing offsets of the reference bores prevent the bearing cap from being assembled in a reversed orientation. To ensure that each bearing cap can only be fitted in one position, a centre spacing between the first and second reference bores of each bearing cap is different to the centre spacing used for other bearing caps used to support a single shaft.

10385923 · 2019-08-20 · ·

Bearing housing including a housing element designed to be adapted to receive internally a bearing, and a fastening base or flange to a frame of machinery provided with through holes for screws or bolts and having a shoulder face intended to go into use in contact against the frame of the machine equipment, the face of the shoulder being traversed by through holes. The housing element is made of a synthetic molded plastic material and the base or flange has its shoulder face covered by a layer of elastomeric material which has been molded integrally fixed in one piece with the base or flange.

Bearing arrangement for a tiltable converter
10323685 · 2019-06-18 · ·

A non-locating bearing arrangement for supporting one side of a trunnion ring of a converter. The arrangement provides a toroidal roller bearing mounted in a split housing having top and bottom halves, an inner ring of the bearing mounted to a trunnion of the trunnion ring and an outer ring of the bearing mounted to a bore in the housing. A first spacer ring mounted in axial abutment between a first side part of the housing an opposing end face of the outer bearing ring; a second spacer ring mounted in axial abutment between a second side part of the housing and an opposing end face of the outer bearing ring. The first spacer ring has an axial width greater than an axial width of the second spacer ring, and the protrusion has a plane of symmetry that is parallel to and axially offset from the housing center plane.

Split plummer block bearing housing

A split plummer block bearing housing for a rotatable shaft includes a detachable housing cap, which includes at least one housing grease channel, and at least one seal assembly. The seal assembly includes a stationary part, which has a seal grease channel and is mounted on the housing, and a rotating part that is configured to be mounted on the shaft. The stationary part and the rotating part are configured to cooperate with each other as a labyrinth and/or contacting seal, and the housing grease channel and the seal grease channel connect and form an extension of each other.

Pillow block bearing assembly for a drivetrain assembly of a work vehicle

A pillow block bearing assembly for a drivetrain assembly of a work vehicle may include a pillow block housing defining a bearing cavity, a bearing disposed within the bearing cavity, and first and second sealing devices installed within the bearing cavity. Additionally, the drivetrain assembly may include a shaft received within the pillow block bearing assembly, with the shaft extending through the bearing such that an outer circumferential surface of the shaft directly contacts an inner circumferential surface of an inner race of the bearing at a bearing/shaft interface defined between the shaft and the bearing. Moreover, a sliding fit may be defined between the outer circumferential surface of the shaft and the inner circumferential surface of the inner race at the bearing/shaft interface such that the shaft is allowed to slide axially relative to the bearing when a given axial load is applied through the shaft.

Integrated hanger bearing monitor

An integrated hanger bearing monitor is provided for reducing installation time and added weight that includes a sensor and an interconnect on a mounting bracket that is sized and configured to be attached to a hanger bearing mounting bracket via connectors that mount the hanger bearing mounting bracket to the helicopter.
