Abstract: A rotating hub and fixed spindle assembly with first and second fluid dynamic journal bearings and first and second fluid dynamic thrust bearings for a disc drive memory system has a pump seal and a radial ring seal at a first axial terminus for lubricant containment, and a capillary seal and a labyrinth seal at a second axial terminus for lubricant containment and storage. Lubricant fluid pressure differences between first and second seals are minimized through one or more lubricant fluid communicating channels in the hub assembly, in order to minimize lubricant fluid loss through a seal. Lubricant fluid can also be purged of any air bubbles by lubricant fluid circulation through the channel.

Abstract: A method and device are provided for stabilizing shaft bearings in a motor having a hollow shaft and holes communicating the shaft and the bearings. A lubricant pump is provided for pressurizing a volume of lubricant located within the motor housing, the pump having a set of impellers attached to a lower end of the shaft and rotating with the shaft, the impellers being located in the flow path of the lubricant. A diffuser is located upstream of and adjacent each impeller. The impellers increase the radial velocity of the lubricant, and this velocity is converted into a pressure head at the impeller outlet. The lubricant flows through the first diffuser, through the first impeller, through the second diffuser, and then flows through the second impeller and out into a reservoir. The pressure causes the lubricant to flow through the hollow shaft and through passages to stabilize the bearings.

Abstract: A CT scanner (10) for obtaining a medical diagnostic image of a subject includes a stationary gantry (12), and a rotating gantry (16) rotatably supported on the stationary gantry (12) for rotation about the subject. A fluid bearing (18) is interposed between the stationary and rotating gantries (12) and (16), respectively. The fluid bearing (18) provides a fluid barrier (110) which separates the rotating gantry (16) from the stationary gantry (12). In a preferred embodiment, the fluid bearing (18) provides for quieter CT scanner operation at high rotational speeds. Moreover, eliminating the physical contact between the gantries minimizes wear and optimizes longevity.

Abstract: A compressor (30) for use in a refrigerator, which has a rotary shaft (33) supported by bearings (39 to 42) to be lubricated by a liquid refrigerant and is adapted to permit the rotary shaft 33 to continue rotating for a while after a liquid refrigerant pump (36) is stopped at, for example, a power failure, thereby preventing the bearings (39 to 42) from being damaged. To that end, the compressor (30) is further provided with a header (52) for storing a predetermined amount of a high-pressure liquid refrigerant, and with check valves (51, 54 and 56) for maintaining the internal pressure of this header (52) at a high pressure for a predetermined time period after a power failure occurs.
