DENTAL HANDPIECE HAVING A ROLLING BEARING
A dental handpiece (1) having a drive (3) of a tool (4), which drive is located in a head housing (2), has at least one media-conducting line arranged in the head housing, which media-conducting line has an outlet opening to the tool, and a tool receptacle (16) arranged in a drive chamber, which tool receptacle is rotatably supported by means of a rolling bearing (11) in a support (14) of the head housing (2) on a side of the drive chamber facing the tool. The rolling bearing has an outer race (13), which is supported against the head housing (2) radially in the support (14) in the area of a raceway (22) and which has a sub-area (21), the outside diameter D2 of which is reduced compared to the outside diameter D1 in the area of the raceway (22). The head housing has a housing projection (23), which extends into the area of the reduced outside diameter D2, and the media-conducting line (17) runs at least partially through said housing projection (23).
SEALED THRUST BEARING
A sealed thrust bearing includes an inner ring; an outer ring facing the inner ring in an axial direction; an elastic member that covers the inner ring so as to define: an inner elastic seal member that seals a space between an inner circumferential portion of the inner ring and an inner circumferential portion of the outer ring; and an outer elastic seal member that seals a space between an outer circumferential portion of the inner ring and an outer circumferential portion of the outer ring; and a lower member that is disposed below the outer ring for being assembled with the outer ring, and is provided with cation coating. The inner elastic seal member has a lip in pressure contact with an inner surface of one of a cylinder portion and a cylindrical portion of the lower member, and the outer elastic seal member has a lip in pressure contact with an upper surface of one of an annular ring portion and an annular portion of the lower member. The lip of the inner elastic seal member has an area including a portion in pressure contact with the lower member and is provided with an irregular portion having surface roughness (ten-point height of irregularities conforming to JIS B 0601-1994) from 20 mRz to 50 mRz.
Wheel bearing unit
Wheel bearing units are disclosed. In one example, a wheel bearing unit includes an outer ring element and an inner ring element, between which there are arranged at least two rolling body rows. The inner ring element may have a radial flange which is fastenable to an axle body or to a wheel. The radial flange and/or the inner ring element may have at least one projection on a surface facing toward the outer ring element.
Combination Bearing and Seal Assembly for Rotatable Shafts
A combination bearing and seal assembly includes a tubular inner body disposeable about a shaft so rotate about an axis and has a first outer circumferential surface section providing an inner bearing race and a second outer circumferential surface section spaced axially from the first surface section and providing a seal engagement surface. A tubular outer body is disposed about the inner body and has an inner circumferential surface section providing a bearing outer race and rolling elements are disposed between the two races to form a bearing. A seal member(s) form an annular seal between the inner and outer bodies and is spaced axially from the bearing. The seal member(s) have inner sealing surface(s) engageable with the inner body engagement surface when the inner body is generally stationary and the seal is configured to displace radially outwardly from the engagement surface when the inner body rotates about the axis.
Rolling bearing assembly
A rolling bearing assembly including a rolling bearing provided with a first race having a bore, two front edges and an outer cylindrical surface, and with a second race provided with a bore, two front edges and an outer cylindrical surface. The first and second races rotate relatively about a central axis. The assembly is intended to be mounted in a housing. The assembly provides at least one first annular flange that is secured to the first race and at least partially covers a front edge of the first race, and at least one second annular flange that is secured to the second race and at least partially covers a front edge of the second race. Free ends of the first and second annular flanges are in sliding contact. The difference in dimensions between the housing and the rolling bearing is compensated by the flanges.
Power operated rotary knife
A rolling bearing strip for a power operated rotary knife providing bearing support for rotation of a rotary knife blade with respect to a blade housing. The rolling bearing strip includes: a plurality of rolling bearings disposed in spaced apart relation; and a flexible separator cage for positioning the plurality of spaced apart rolling bearings, the flexible separator cage including interlocking first and second ends, the first end of the separator cage including a wall defining a projecting member and the second end of the separator cage including a wall defining a receiving member, the first end projecting member and the second end receiving member being in opposed facing relationship and the first end projecting member extending into the second end receiving member to secure the first end to the second end and form an annular, continuous rolling bearing ring.
Bearing, notably for a vehicle
A bearing having an inner ring, an outer ring, and sealing means is provided. The bearing includes a complementary inflatable sealing device mounted on one of the rings and further includes a fixed annular part and a deformable annular portion coupled to the annular fixed part that can be deformed in a direction from a retracted position to a deployed position under the effect of a fluid and in the other direction towards its retracted position, at least one annular chamber for receiving the fluid, into which the orifice being formed between the fixed and deformable portions at least when the deformable annular portion is extended axially.
Line roller unit and fishing line guide mechanism
The present invention is a line roller unit that includes a line roller, a bearing, a cylindrical member, and a first magnetic seal. The line roller possesses a guider on its periphery surface that guides a fishing line. The bearing is set up on the inner circumference of the line roller, with the cylindrical member possessing a holding part that holds bearing. The cylindrical member is set up on the inner circumference of bearing. The first magnetic seal possesses both a first magnet and a first holding member that holds the first magnet, and the first magnetic seal forms the first magnetic circuit for holding the magnetic liquid at the space between the cylindrical member. The first magnetic seal is set up on the line roller.
Turbocharger and method
A turbocharger includes a turbine, a compressor, and a bearing housing forming a bearing bore. A bearing arrangement is disposed between a shaft interconnecting the turbine and compressor wheels, and the bearing housing. The bearing arrangement includes an outer bearing race element and an inner bearing race element rotatably disposed within the outer bearing race element. The inner bearing race element forms a hollow extension extending up to the compressor wheel, the extension having a hollow cylindrical shape that surrounds a portion of the shaft that is connected on one end to the compressor wheel and at another end is disposed adjacent to a seat formed on the extension portion around the shaft, and a nut engaged on the shaft and disposed within the extension at an offset distance from the seat.
Turbocharger and method
A turbocharger includes a turbine, a compressor, and a bearing housing forming a bearing bore. A bearing arrangement is disposed between a shaft interconnecting the turbine and compressor wheels, and the bearing housing. The bearing arrangement includes first and second bearings formed between an outer bearing race element disposed within the bearing bore an inner bearing race element disposed within the outer bearing race element and between the outer bearing race element and the shaft. The inner bearing race element rotates with the shaft and forms an extension segment having an open channel that, together with an annular surface on an inner side of a back of the compressor wheel, forms a U-shaped channel into which a ring seal is disposed. The ring seal sealably engages the inner bearing race element and also slidably and sealably engages the inner bore of the bearing retainer.
