Method of forming raceway element including contoured joint edge
A bearing raceway element configured as an inner ring or as an outer ring, or configured to be attachable to an element serving as an inner ring or as an outer ring for the bearing or to an inner ring or an outer ring of the bearing. The raceway element is manufactured from a sheet metal panel and includes at least one first joint edge and at least one second joint edge directed in the circumferential direction that are configured to be connected to each other in order to form an annular raceway element. The at least one first joint edge is at least partially configured as a first alignment element and/or includes the first alignment element. Also a bearing including the raceway element and an associated method.

Labyrinth seal with interlocking rotor and seal case insert
A labyrinth seal includes a seal case with an inner-diameter leg encircling a rotation axis, and an insert fixed in the seal case and encircling the rotation axis. The labyrinth seal also includes a slinger encircling the rotation axis and wrapping around the inner-diameter leg to cooperate with the seal case to form a first part of a labyrinth path. The slinger rotates relative to the seal case. The labyrinth seal also includes a rotor that encircles the rotation axis, cooperates with the insert to form a second part of the labyrinth path, and interlocks with the insert to limit axial movement of the rotor when the rotor rotates relative to the insert. The labyrinth seal may be combined with a bearing cone, a bearing cup, and a plurality of rollers to form a roller bearing assembly.
Raceway element and method for its manufacture
A sheet metal strip configured for use as an inner or outer raceway of a rolling-element bearing, and a method of forming the raceway by punching and/or laser cutting a strip of material from a metal sheet, bending the sheet into a ring and welding the ends of the strip together, and mounting the strip on a circular inner or outer surface to form an outer or inner raceway.

Bearing system with independent adaptive stifness support
A bearing system is configured to surround a rotor along a circumferential direction corresponding to the rotor. The rotor is extended along an axial direction co-directional to a centerline axis of the rotor. The bearing system includes a body from which a plurality of first support members is each extended, and wherein the plurality of first support members is spaced apart from one another along the circumferential direction. Each first support member includes a first axial support arm extended along the axial direction and a first radial support arm extended from the first axial support arm along a radial direction. The first radial support arm is configured to position a bearing element in contact with a bearing surface at the rotor.
ELECTROMECHANICAL BRAKE PRESSURE GENERATOR INCLUDING SPINDLE DRIVE UNIT, BRAKING SYSTEM
An electromechanical brake pressure generator including a spindle drive unit for converting a rotational motion of an electric motor-driven drive shaft into a translatory motion of a piston that is coupled to the spindle drive unit, the spindle drive unit being operatively connected to the drive shaft via a multi-stage transmission. The multi-stage transmission is a planetary gear set having a first and a second stage. With the aid of the transmission, a spindle or a spindle nut of the spindle drive unit is drivable, which is rotatably mounted in a housing of the brake pressure generator via a bearing assembly receiving axial and radial forces. A braking system for a vehicle including an electromechanical brake pressure generator is also described.
RACEWAY ELEMENT INCLUDING CONTOURED JOINT EDGE
A bearing raceway element configured as an inner ring or as an outer ring, or configured to be attachable to an element serving as an inner ring or as an outer ring for the bearing or to an inner ring or an outer ring of the bearing. The raceway element is manufactured from a sheet metal panel and includes at least one first joint edge and at least one second joint edge directed in the circumferential direction that are configured to be connected to each other in order to form an annular raceway element. The at least one first joint edge is at least partially configured as a first alignment element and/or includes the first alignment element. Also a bearing including the raceway element and an associated method.
