Abstract:
A cam follower unit comprising a tappet, a roller adapted to cooperate with a cam, the roller being mounted rotatably on a pin which is mounted in holes provided on two lateral ears of the tappet, the pin being retained in the tappet, in the longitudinal direction of the pin, by elastic spring retainers mounted against the ends of the pin, inside the holes of the lateral ears. The elastic spring retainers comprise a central portion adapted to be in contact with ends of the pin, the central portion defining a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the pin, and a peripheral portion adapted to exert a radial elastic force against an internal wall of the circular holes. The peripheral portion extends outwardly from the central portion and away from the pin along directions inclined with respect to the plane defined by the central portion.

Pulley device for a rotary machine, and in particular a compressor, comprising a pulley, a rolling bearing, a torque transmission plate having an axial sleeve designed to be mounted on a rotary spindle of the rotary machine and a radial plate extending radially from the axial sleeve and having the general shape of a disc, said pulley being mounted on an outer ring of the rolling bearing and on the torque transmission plate, the torque transmission plate being able to transmit a rotational movement from the pulley to the rotary spindle.Said pulley device comprises a damping element located between the pulley and the torque transmission plate.
Abstract:
This bearing comprises a fixed outer ring and a rotatable inner ring, and at least one lubrication ring having at least one lubrication duct extending between an outer surface and an inner surface of the lubrication ring. The at least one lubrication duct is placed so that the scalar product of a vector collinear to the longitudinal axis of the lubrication duct, and a vector (VL1) collinear to the tangent line (L1) to an outer cylindrical surface of the inner ring, at the point where the longitudinal axis of the lubrication duct (270) intersects the outer cylindrical surface of the inner ring, and oriented in the same direction as the rotation direction (F) of the inner ring, is strictly superior to zero, said vectors being projected in a plane (P2) perpendicular to the rotation axis of the bearing.
Abstract:
Pulley device for a rotating machine comprising a pulley containing a plurality of axial ribs, a torque transmission means containing an axial sleeve intended to be installed on a rotating shaft of the rotating machine and a radial plate extending radially from the axial sleeve and comprising a plurality of regularly distributed radial teeth extending towards the outside, two adjacent teeth being separated in the circumferential direction by an indentation, and a damping element arranged between the said pulley and the torque transmission means.The damping element includes at least one damping portion arranged in each of the indentations of the radial plate, being situated circumferentially between a radial tooth of the torque transmission means and an axial rib of the pulley.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a rolling bearing 1 comprising a lower ring 3 mounted inside a lower annular cup 6, an upper ring 2 mounted inside an upper annular cup 7, and at least one row of rolling elements 4 positioned between raceways defined by lower and upper rings. One of the annular cups has at least one annular skirt 6d partly inserted within at least one annular groove 7m provided in the other annular cup, thus forming a sinuous chamber 8, and the sinuous chamber is at least partly filled with at least one waterproof grease material 9.
Abstract:
Turbocharger comprising a shaft, a housing, a turbine wheel and a compressor wheel mounted onto the shaft, at least one rolling bearing located between the shaft and the housing and comprising an inner ring, an outer ring and at least one row of rolling elements between raceways provided on the rings.Said turbocharger comprises at least one intermediate sleeve radially located between the shaft and the inner ring of the rolling bearing.
Abstract:
The cam follower roller device providing a tappet body extending along an axis, an insert mounted in the tappet body, a pin mounted at least on the insert and a roller mounted on the pin. The device further provides a retaining washer mounted into a bore of the tappet body so as to axially retain the insert inside the tappet body. The tappet body provides retention means, cooperating with the washer to axially retain the washer relative to the tappet body. The retaining washer is axially interposed between the insert and the retention means.
Abstract:
The cam follower roller device provides a tappet body 12, an insert 18 mounted in the tappet body and provided with a central core 24 and with at least two side tabs 26, 28, a pin 14 mounted at least on the tabs of the insert, and a roller 16 mounted on the pin. The insert 18 further provides at least one stiffener 44, 46 disposed between the core 24 and each tab 26, 28.
Abstract:
The cam follower roller device provides a tappet body extending along an axis, an insert mounted in the tappet body, a pin mounted at least on the insert and a roller mounted on the pin. The device further provides a spacer having a body mounted axially against the insert and with retaining means, cooperating with the insert for fixing the spacer to the insert.
Abstract:
A cam follower is provided having a tappet that includes a cylindrical outer surface centered on a longitudinal axis and adapted to slide in a housing surrounding the tappet, a pin extending between two opposite ends along a transverse axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, a roller element movable in rotation relative to the pin around the transverse axis and adapted to roll on a cam, and lubrication channels for lubricating the pin and the roller. The cam follower further provides a support element mounted in the tappet and supporting the pin, and the lubrication channels include at least one pair of consecutive channels formed through the tappet and the support element. The invention also provides an injection pump and a valve actuator for a motor vehicle, each having such a cam follower. The invention finally provides a method for manufacturing such a cam follower.
