A mould drum system configured for use in an installation for moulding food products from a pumpable foodstuff mass while the drum is rotating a mould drum around a longitudinal rotation axis by a driving unit. A support device is connected to the frame structure, having an inner side, the support device being moveable relative to the frame structure between an open position and a closing position. A shaft is provided having a mounting side at which it is mounted to the frame and an opposite free end.

A bearing housing is provided with a cooling channel in at least part of the circumference around the bearing. The cooling channel is provided with a flow guide member at least in part of its flow section to construct a tortuous passage whose flow distance is longer than the corresponding circumferential length of the flow section. On the basis of the above-mentioned bearing housing, the present invention also provides a bearing housing unit, a continuous casting roll line and a continuous casting machine that use the bearing housing. The above-mentioned bearing housing adopts an optimized cooling channel design, which can obtain a better cooling effect without changing other structures of the bearing housing. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for upgrading existing equipment and has a huge cost advantage and a wide range of application prospects.

A rolling bearing assembly includes an inner ring supported by a shaft or formed by a surface of the shaft, an outer ring supported in a housing or formed by a surface of the housing, a plurality of rolling elements disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring, and at least one distance sensor configured to measure a distance between the shaft and the housing in order to detect wear of the rolling bearing.

A system for mounting an annular component on a shaft, comprising (a) a hydraulic nut having an annular coaxial cavity and a ring-like piston, displaceable within the cavity; (b) a displacement sensor for providing a displacement signal indicating the axial displacement of the piston within the cavity; (c) a wireless displacement transmitter for transmitting the displacement signal; (d) a pressure sensor for providing a pressure signal indicating a pressure within the cavity; (e) a wireless pressure transmitter for transmitting the pressure signal; (f) a pump arranged to pump fluid into the cavity; and (g) a remote control device having a communications device arranged to receive transmitted pressure and displacement signals, wherein the remote control device is arranged to output control information for controlling the pump.

An anti-roll stabilizer device for boats includes a container adapted to be mounted on a suspension so as to oscillate around a first axis; a mass rotatably supported inside the container so as to form a rotor that rotates around a second axis transverse to the first axis; and a rotor cooling system having a hollow shaft arranged along the second axis, a first and a second cooling chamber sealed from the container of the rotor and from the outside, arranged at the ends of the hollow shaft and communicating through the hollow shaft, the first chamber having an inlet and the second chamber an outlet that are connected to a forced circulation circuit of the cooling fluid so that the cooling fluid can circulate from the first chamber to the second chamber through the hollow shaft and from the second chamber to the first chamber through the circulation circuit.

A bearing includes a plurality of rolling elements (26) spaced around a three-hundred and sixty degree circumferential extent of the bearing. An odd, non-singular number of high-points are positioned as near to evenly as possible about the circumferential extent of the bearing, the high-points defined by locations at which rolling elements with the largest diameters are positioned. An odd, non-singular number of low-points are positioned as near to evenly as possible about the circumferential extent of the bearing, the low-points defined by locations at which rolling elements having the smallest diameters are positioned. The odd, non-singular number of high-points is the same as the odd, non-singular number of low-points, and each low-point is positioned as near to evenly as possible between two adjacent high-points.

The double-row self-aligning roller bearing includes an outer ring having a spherical raceway surface, and each of rollers in two rows has an outer peripheral surface whose cross-sectional shape corresponds to the raceway surface of the outer ring. The rollers in the two rows have different lengths from each other, and the length of the longer rollers is equal to or greater than 36% of a bearing width. A ratio of a contact angle of the shorter rollers relative to a contact angle of the longer rollers is within a range of 1:4 to 1:2. The contact angle of the shorter rollers has a range of 3° to 5°, and the contact angle of the longer rollers has a range of 11° to 14°.

Provided is a self-aligning roller bearing for supporting a main shaft of a wind power generator, the self-aligning roller bearing including an inner ring, an outer ring, two rows of rollers, and retainers. Each of the rollers has an outer peripheral surface formed with a DLC coating having a multilayer structure. The DLC coating has a film thickness of 2.0 μm or larger. A base material of each of the rollers has an external surface having a surface roughness of Ra≤0.3 and RΔq≤0.05. The DLC coating having the multilayer structure includes layers having stepwisely increasing film hardnesses such that a layer situated closer to outside has a higher hardness.

To provide a rolling bearing having a hard film on an inner ring raceway surface and an outer ring raceway surface of the rolling bearing that improves peeling resistance of the hard film, shows the original property of the hard film, and suppresses the attackability to a mating material. A rolling bearing 1 has an inner ring 2 having an inner ring raceway surface 2a on an outer circumference, an outer ring 3 having an outer ring raceway surface 3a on an inner circumference, and rolling elements 4 that roll between the inner ring raceway surface 2a and the outer ring raceway surface 3a. A hard film 8 includes a foundation layer formed directly on the inner ring raceway surface 2a or the outer ring raceway surface 3a and mainly formed of Cr and WC, a mixed layer having a gradient composition formed on the foundation layer and mainly formed of WC and DLC, and a surface layer formed on the mixed layer and mainly formed of DLC. In a roughness curve of a surface on which the foundation layer is formed, the arithmetical mean roughness Ra is 0.3 μm or less and the root mean square gradient RΔq is 0.05 or less.
