11131565 · 2021-09-28 · ·

A method of manufacturing an annular insert molded article that suppresses contamination of a metal mold and generation of foreign matter without increase in material costs for an adhesive or contamination of a transfer jig, and has a high adhesion strength so that, when the annular insert molded article is attached to a rotating body, the adhesive does not peel off from the insert or remain as foreign matter in the rotating body. An annular insert molded article 1 is manufactured by injection molding in a state where a thermoset resin adhesive A is applied to a joining surface of an annular insert 2 attachable to a rotating body to an annular plastic 3 and then the annular insert 2 and the annular plastic 3 are placed in a metal mold.

The bearing receiving space (18) of the bearing cover (10) is decoupled electrically from the fastening region (17) of the bearing cover (10) to prevent an undesired flow of electric current across the bearing (9).

ROLLER BEARING

The invention concerns a bearing, the inner member having an inner ring with a raceway and an inner wall assembled around an outer bearing surface of a hub of the inner member. The outer bearing surface has a groove in which an annular member ring is arranged having an inner segment axially immobilised in the groove and an outer segment that projects to form an axial stop for the assembly of the inner ring on the hub. The inner member is equipped with an encoder having a track capable of generating a signal representative of its rotation. The encoder also has a frame securing it in rotation to the inner member. The frame has a stop section that is interposed between the inner ring and the outer segment, the inner ring abutting axially on the segment via the stop section.

Bearing monitoring method and system
11085489 · 2021-08-10 ·

This invention relates to a bearing monitoring method and system suitable for the monitoring of faults in rolling element bearings. The method and system utilize an acceleration sensor that is sensitive to both acceleration and housing strain and which has the effect of amplifying acceleration events that coincide with areas of the housing strain signal that correspond to bearing ball-pass events. The housing strain signal due to ball-pass events can be used to synchronise or otherwise modify the sampling of acceleration signals, or to determine bearing performance characteristics.
