A sheave (100) for a passenger conveyor system is provided. The sheave (100) comprises a sheave axis (150) about which the sheave (100) rotates; a cylindrical sleeve (105); and a bearing (120a, 120b) centred on and arranged to rotate about the sheave axis (150). The cylindrical sleeve (105) includes an outer surface (110) including a groove (155) arranged to receive a belt; and an inner surface (115) defining a cylindrical cavity (122) centred on the sheave axis (150). The bearing (120a, 120b) includes an outer race (125a), an inner race (130a) and one or more rolling elements (135a) therebetween, wherein the outer race (125a) comprises a protrusion (140) arranged to hold the bearing (120a, 120b) within the cylindrical cavity (122) due to engagement between the protrusion (140) and the inner surface of the cylindrical sleeve (115).

A power transmission device including a housing and a ball screw device including a nut, a screw shaft, and a plurality of balls. The device includes a pulley device including a driving pulley configured to be driven by receiving power transmitted from a power source, a driven pulley fixed to the nut, and a belt wound around outer peripheral surfaces of the driving pulley and the driven pulley. The device also includes a first bearing and a second bearing disposed between the housing and the nut in a center axis direction parallel with a center axis of the nut; and a preload applying member configured to apply preloads to the first bearing and the second bearing. The first bearing and the second bearing are respectively disposed on both sides of the driven pulley to be a face-to-face combination, and each of the first bearing and the second bearing includes an outer ring engaged with the housing.

A Pulley device for a tensioning or winding roller for a transmission element including a pulley, and a rolling bearing provided with a rotating outer ring, the pulley being mounted on an outer surface of the outer ring, a fixed inner ring, the rings being coaxial and forming a radial space between them, and at least one row of rolling elements arranged in the radial space. The pulley device further includes at least one annular protection flange with a radial body. The flange is fixed to the rotating outer ring by crimping an axially protruding portion of the pulley towards an outer edge of the flange.

A follower bearing includes an outer ring, rolling elements, and a cage retaining the rolling elements. The outer ring includes an annular first member made of steel, and an annular second member made of resin and covering an outer circumferential surface of the first member. The first member includes a tubular portion. The second member includes a first portion disposed on one side of the tubular portion in an axial direction and having a first opposing surface that opposes an outer circumferential surface of the cage in a radial direction, and a second portion disposed on the other side of the tubular portion in the axial direction and having a second opposing surface that opposes the outer circumferential surface of the cage in the radial direction. In the radial direction, the first and second opposing surfaces are each disposed on a more outer circumference side than a second raceway surface.

Provided is a power steering apparatus capable of reducing a maximumly generated stress on an output pulley. An output pulley of a power steering apparatus includes a fastening target portion around a screw insertion hole of a hub portion. When a boundary portion between the hub portion and a winding and hanging portion is defined to be a portion where a minor angle, among relative angles formed between a tangential line of an inner surface of the output pulley and a rotational axis of a nut in an axial cross section of the output pulley that passes through the rotational axis of the nut, gradually reduces from a nut-rotational-axis side toward a radially outer side to then reach 45 degrees, the fastening target portion is a region that is located on an inner side in a radial direction with respect to the boundary portion and overlaps a head portion of a screw in a radial direction of the screw.
