A crankshaft assembly for a motor vehicle drive train, including a crankshaft segment and a centrifugal pendulum secured thereon, which has a carrier secured to the crankshaft segment and at least one pendulum mass that moves relative to the carrier along a predetermined track. The crankshaft assembly has a friction unit connected to the carrier, which rests on the at least one pendulum mass such that, with a relative movement of the pendulum mass in relation to the carrier, the friction unit applies a frictional torque on the pendulum mass counteracting the relative movement, wherein the friction unit extends over a peripheral section of less than 360°.

A pivot cradle bearing (1) having a pivoting element (2) which is mounted to pivot in a housing (3) is provided in which an inner bearing shell (7), on which rolling bodies (4) are rolling, is held on the pivoting element (2). The inner bearing shell (7) is held by rivets (10) in a form-fitting manner on the pivoting element (2) in the circumferential direction of the bearing shell (7).

Provided is a motor including: a rotor, a stator, a first and second bearing, a support member, a housing including a first flat part and a cylindrical part, and a bearing holder. The cylindrical part includes: a first inner circumferential surface inside which is provided the stator; a second inner circumferential surface, a distance from the second inner circumferential surface to a central axis being greater than a distance from the first inner circumferential surface to the central axis, and the second inner circumferential surface contacting an outer circumferential surface of the bearing holder; and a stepped surface, connecting the first and the second inner circumferential surfaces, and contacting a lower surface of the bearing holder. The housing further includes a riveting part located on the second inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical part and fixing the bearing holder to the second inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical part.

A gib includes a metallic substrate having a first face and a second face and an attachment disposed on the metallic substrate. The attachment includes a first functional surface disposed on the first face of the metallic substrate. The first functional surface is configured as a bearing surface. The attachment may be formed of a fabric resin composite material.

A turbine assembly includes a turbine shell, turbine hub, and a thrust washer. The turbine hub is coupled to the turbine shell via a fastener. The thrust washer is disposed on the turbine hub and includes at least one tab configured to contact the fastener. The fastener axially and radially retains the thrust washer on the turbine hub.

A high-speed ball bearing utilizes a two-piece cage. Each of the two cage halves have a set of posts and a set of holes located circumferentially between the half pockets. The posts are long enough that they stick out from the corresponding holes after the cage halves are mated together. Heat is applied to the ends of the posts, causing them to form vulcanized bonds with the surrounding material of the opposite cage half. These bonds reliably hold the cage halves together even at high rotational speeds.

A bearing assembly includes a bearing cage and a supplementary ring. The bearing cage includes an annular body and a plurality of bearing elements disposed about the annular body. The supplementary ring includes an annular collar and a plurality of retention elements. The annular collar is disposed concentrically about the bearing cage. The plurality of retention elements is connected to and extends axially from the first annular collar. Each retention element is aligned between adjacent bearing elements. The plurality of retention elements is disposed to retain the plurality of bearing elements in the annular body of the bearing cage.

A pivot structure includes a first pivot element, a second pivot element, and a fixing element. The first pivot element includes a through hole. The second pivot structure includes a pivoting portion. The pivoting portion is rotatably engaged with the through hole. The fixing element is coupled with the second pivot element. The fixing element includes a first retaining portion, and the first pivot element is retained between the second pivot element and the first retaining portion.
