The invention relates to a bearing assembly for an exhaust gas turbocharger for rotatably supporting a rotor shaft on a bearing housing, having at least one bearing outer ring of a radial bearing, which at least one bearing outer ring is placed in a bearing bore of the bearing housing and consists of at least one part, and at least one securing element, which consists of at least one part and by which the bearing outer ring is axially fastened in relation to the bearing housing. In order to simplify the assembly of a corresponding bearing assembly and to reduce the production costs thereof, at least one circumferential groove, according to the invention, is arranged on an outer lateral surface of a compressor-side end section of the bearing outer ring, in which at least one groove the securing element engages, and the securing element is arranged outside of the bearing bore on the compressor side and is supported at least indirectly on a compressor-side end of the bearing housing.

The present invention provides a rack assist type electric power steering apparatus. The power steering apparatus includes: a ball nut coupled to a rack bar via balls to be rotated, and configured to cause the rack bar to slide; a bearing mounted on an outer peripheral surface of the ball nut so as to support rotation of the ball nut; and a support member coupled to at least one of a space between one side of an outer race of the bearing and a housing and a space between the other side of the outer race of the bearing and the housing so as to support the bearing.

An electric motor has a stator and a rotor which is arranged on a motor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner. The motor shaft is rotatably mounted about a rotational axis in at least one rolling bearing within a motor housing. The rolling bearing is arranged in a bearing shield in a bearing receiving area, the outer ring of the rolling bearing is pretensioned by a spring disc which sits in the bearing receiving area in a fixed manner to the housing, and the spring disc has an opening and a number of spring elements raised axially towards the outer ring in a disc body surrounding the opening.

A bearing assembly includes a stationary component, a rotatable component and a preloadable double row bearing unit having a rotatable bearing ring and a stationary bearing ring and two rows of rolling elements between the rings. The rotatable bearing ring and/or the stationary bearing ring includes a first part and a second part, and the first part is spaced from the second part by a gap so that the first part and the second part do not touch. At least one elastic element is disposed in the gap and fills the gap.

A motor adjustment drive for a vehicle steering column includes a threaded spindle with an axis. The threaded spindle engages a spindle nut. A drive unit and a gear wheel which is connected to the spindle nut or the threaded spindle for rotation therewith is driveable to rotate by the drive unit and is rotatably mounted in a bearing housing between two outer bearing rings that are axially supported at the bearing housing. The outer bearing rings each have, on their sides facing one another, a circumferential outer bearing face that is coaxial to the axis. Each outer bearing face lays opposite a bearing face embodied on the end side at the gear wheel. An outer bearing ring is axially resiliently supported at the bearing housing via an elastic element, which exerts an axial force that biases the two outer bearing rings toward each other.

A centrifugal separator is configured for processing a product by separating a relatively, heavy component and a relatively light component therefrom. The centrifugal separator includes a spindle supported by a stationary frame, A drive unit acts on a rotating member mounted on the spindle to rotate the spindle. A centrifuge rotor mounted to the spindle encloses a separation space. An upper bearing housing is mounted to the stationary frame and supports bearings including an outer bearing ring attached to the upper bearing housing and an inner bearing ring attached to the spindle. The upper bearing housing is mounted to the stationary frame via an elastic member permitting the upper bearing housing and the spindle to move radially, and via an upper tilting member permitting the spindle to tilt during operation of the centrifugal separator.

A motor includes a stator and a rotor having a rotor shaft. The motor includes a bearing having an inner ring and an outer ring that are configured to rotate relative to each other. The inner ring is supported by the rotor shaft. The motor also includes a holder that supports the outer ring. The holder is clearance-fitted to a retainer on a stator side. A rotation prevention apparatus configured to prevent the rotation of the holder is positioned between the holder and a stopper member on the stator side.

A system for an unmanned aerial vehicle can include an altitude control system, which further includes a compressor assembly, a valve assembly, and an electronics assembly. The compressor assembly may include a driveshaft and a bearing assembly configured to rotate the driveshaft. The driveshaft may be formed from a first material and a compressor housing may be formed from a second material. The first and second materials may have different rates of thermal expansion. A dynamic preloading mechanism, such as a flexible plate, may be provided within the compressor assembly to exert a preloading force on the bearing assembly. Throughout the duration of the flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the preloading mechanism can continually compensate for differences in rates of thermal expansion between the first and second materials throughout.

A power steering device includes a bearing rotatably supporting the tip side of a worm shaft, a gear case provided with the housing hole for housing the worm shaft and a holder housing the bearing. The holder includes a first holder holding the bearing, a second holder having the guide part configured to guide a movement of the second bearing toward a worm wheel, and a spring provided in a compressed state between the first holder and the second holder and configured to bias the first holder toward the worm wheel. The second holder includes a holder opening part configured to allow the bearing and the first holder to pass through thereof in the guiding direction of the guide part to guide the bearing, and the first holder faces an inner peripheral surface of the housing hole through the holder opening part.

The dental handpiece consists of a housing with a handle and a turbine that can be operated with compressed gas or compressed air. The rotational movement of the turbine driven by compressed gas is transmitted to the dental tool via a rotor shaft and a chuck. The rotor shaft is rotatably supported by at least one axial groove ball bearing. The radial rigidity required for operating a dental handpiece is achieved by axially preloading the ball bearings. Projections on the housing and the shaft disc of the at least one axial groove ball bearing allow the axial groove ball bearing to be used as radial groove ball bearings. The proposed design of the dental handpiece exhibits little power loss or frictional loss in comparison to dental handpieces with radial groove ball bearings, and slip and drilling friction components can be virtually completely prevented in particular.
