摘要:
A bearing device includes a bearing member provided with a circumferentially extending sliding surface and a housing holding the bearing member on an inner circumferential surface thereof. The bearing member is provided with a bearing outer peripheral surface on one side thereof facing the housing. The bearing outer peripheral surface is surface roughened. The housing is provided with a housing inner peripheral surface on one side thereof facing the bearing member. The housing inner peripheral surface is surface roughened. When a mean height Rc of a roughness curve element of either of the bearing outer peripheral surface and the housing inner peripheral surface is X μm, the remaining other of the bearing outer peripheral surface and the housing inner peripheral surface has a material ratio Rmr (X μm) of roughness curve being equal to or less than 10% in at least one measurement direction.

The present invention relates to hydrodynamic bearings, X-ray tubes, X-ray systems, and a method of manufacturing a hydrodynamic bearing for an X-ray tube. The rotor of a hydrodynamic bearing is supported, in steady-state operation, by the pressure of lubricant which is pumped through grooves in the rotor. When the rotor is speeding up or slowing down, the pumping force will not be sufficient to lift the rotor clear of a stationary bushing, and damage, caused by direct contact of the metal surfaces of the bearing, can occur. Providing special coatings on the bearing surfaces can ameliorate this effect.

The radial foil bearing includes: a top foil disposed facing a rotary shaft; an intermediate foil disposed outside of the top foil in the radial direction thereof; a back foil disposed outside of the intermediate foil in the radial direction; and a cylindrical bearing housing accommodating the top foil, the intermediate foil and the back foil. Engagement recesses are formed on both side surfaces of the bearing housing so as to be opposite to each other. The intermediate foil includes intermediate foil pieces disposed in the circumferential direction of the bearing housing. An engagement-projecting piece engaging with the engagement recess is formed in each intermediate foil piece.

A journal foil bearing includes a bearing retainer having one slot configured to receive a top foil leading edge tab and another slot configured to receive a top foil trailing edge tab. A backup support structure, integral to the bearing retainer, extends between and is at least partially defined by the slots. The retainer is configured so that, during operation, the trailing edge tab further contacts, at an increased contact pressure, the support structure at a position close to the friction force, thereby minimizing top foil bending stress and improving bearing strength.

A radial foil bearing includes: a cylindrical top foil disposed so as to face a rotary shaft; a back foil disposed outside in the radial direction of the top foil; and a cylindrical bearing housing accommodating the top foil and the back foil. The bearing housing is provided with a limiting member which limits movement of the back foil. A locking recess is provided in a central part in the axial direction of an inner circumferential surface of the bearing housing. In addition, the limiting member includes a locking protrusion and is fixed to the bearing housing by the locking protrusion being locked into the locking recess.

A hoop including a cylinder which, so that the hoop can be mounted around a shaft, is formed by multiple parts that are assembled together using steps that can produce an assembly without deformation of an external surface of the cylinder. A ring, of which an external surface forms the internal surface of a bearing and which, so that it can be secured to the external wall of the cylinder, is formed by multiple elements that are secured to the cylinder by securing devices that can maintain a machining tolerance of the external surface of the ring.

A bearing system includes a bearing comprising a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. The bearing further comprises a plurality of threads adjacent to the second end. The plurality of threads comprise a first slot perpendicular to the plurality of threads. The bearing system also includes a washer comprising a first surface adjacent to the second end of the bearing and a plane parallel to the first surface. The washer further comprises a plurality of side tabs extending from a second surface in a direction parallel to the plane and a first tab extending from the first surface in a direction perpendicular to the plane. The first tab mates with the first slot of the bearing. The bearing system further comprises a nut positioned between the first end of the bearing and the first surface of the washer.
