A roller bearing assembly including an tapered inner cup (110) defining an inner raceway (118), an tapered outer cup (130) defining an outer raceway (138), the outer raceway having a convex profile, the convex profile being defined by an intersection of the outer raceway and a central plane in which a longitudinal center axis of the roller bearing assembly lies, and a plurality of cylindrical rollers (150) disposed between the tapered inner cup and the tapered outer cup so that each roller is in rolling contact with the inner raceway and the outer raceway, each roller having a first end face (152), a second end face (154) and a cylindrical body extending therebetween.

A bearing assembly comprises a cone member configured to receive rollers therein. A bearing cup is configured for receipt of the cone member therein and for rolling contact with the rollers thereon. A bearing cup pocket extends circumferentially about the rear face of the bearing cup and that is configured to receive a biasing member therein.

Provided is a bearing unit for a rotor unit of a wind turbine, including a first bearing ring, a second bearing ring, a plurality of rolling elements and a sealing member including a sealing member base portion, a first sealing member tip portion and a second sealing member tip portion, wherein the first sealing member tip portion abuts a first wall of the first bearing ring and the second sealing member tip portion abuts a second wall of the bearing unit, wherein the sealing member is configured and arranged such that a first contact pressure between the first sealing member tip portion) and the first wall is transmitted through the sealing member to the second sealing member tip portion to increase a second contact pressure between the second sealing member tip portion and the second wall. Also provided is a wind turbine.

A strain wave gearing unit has a unit housing, a strain wave gearing, and a bearing device. Balls of a bearing part of the bearing device are positioned on the diametrically outer side with respect to a cylindrical barrel part of an externally toothed gear. The diameter S of the balls is 0.05 to 0.15 times the pitch diameter D of the externally toothed gear. The centers of the balls are positioned between a point at a distance of 1.2 times the diameter S toward the cylindrical-barrel-part side from an inner-side end surface of a diaphragm along a center axis and a point at a distance of 1 times the diameter S toward a side opposite the cylindrical barrel part from the inner-side end surface. The bearing device can be configured to be used in common for strain wave gearing units having different axial lengths.

The invention relates to a rolling element bearing cage formed of one or more segments, each segment comprising: a supporting frame having a plurality of spaced apart openings each for accommodating a rolling element; and a reinforcing frame, inserted within the supporting frame, having a corresponding plurality of openings each for aligning with the openings of the supporting frame.

A bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of rollers. The rollers separate the inner ring from the outer ring. The outer ring has an outer radial surface with a circumferentially continuous portion and a plurality of axial projections extending from the circumferentially continuous portion. To improve the security of the press fit connection between outer ring and a housing, surfaces of the outer ring which contact the housing are treated with a laser etching process. The laser etching may be applied to the circumferentially continuous portion and/or to the outer surface of the axial projections. The laser etching process removes a small amount of material from the surface, creating valleys. The removed material is clumped on its surroundings, building peaks. The peaks and valleys increase the friction between the outer ring and the housing, reducing the chance of failures.

The present invention relates to a transmission input shaft arrangement (100) for a vehicle transmission, the transmission input shaft arrangement comprising an input shaft (102); a clutch arrangement (104) and a bearing arrangement (106) arranged at a position spaced apart from the clutch arrangement (104). The bearing arrangement (106) comprises a bearing inner ring (108) rotationally connected to the clutch arrangement (104).

An axle assembly of a vehicle including a differential assembly, a first axle tube including a proximal end adjacent the differential assembly, an opposite distal end, and an axle bore extending therebetween, a first axle shaft rotatably received in the first axle tube, the first axle shaft including a proximal end disposed in the differential assembly, and an opposite distal end extending outwardly from the distal end of the first axle shaft, and a radial bearing assembly including an inner cup, an outer cup and a plurality of roller elements rotatably received therebetween, the outer cup being axially fixed within the axle bore of the first axle tube and the inner cup being axially fixed to the first axle shaft.

A load-variable rolling bearing includes: an outer ring having an outer ring raceway surface with spherical surface contact portions having concave arch sections and a variable contact portion having a shape of a cylinder in such a manner as to be adjacent to the spherical surface contact portions in an axial direction of the spherical surface contact portions; an inner ring having an inner ring raceway surface with spherical surface contact portions having concave arch sections and a variable contact portion having a shape of a cylinder in such a manner as to be adjacent to the spherical surface contact portions in an axial direction of the spherical surface contact portions; and a plurality of rolling elements each having a cylindrical variable contact portion and spherical surface portions formed with convex spherical surfaces on both sides of the variable contact portion.
