Abstract:
A bearing assembly that includes a substantially circular bearing race with a raceway on one of its radially inner or outer surfaces and a plurality of spherical bearing elements disposed around the raceway, and wherein the bearing race is configured to, in use, bias the bearing elements towards a bearing region of a shaft.
Abstract:
A method for producing a composite rolling bearing (1) having a bearing flange (3) and at least one rolling bearing (4, 5) held on the bearing flange (3) by an inner ring (6, 7). In order to be able to fix the inner ring (7) on the bearing flange (3) with axial preloading without expansion, the inner ring (7) is acted upon by a holding-down device (23) that radially holds down the inner ring (7) and is preloaded against the inner ring (7) by a regulated axial force (F), and, by way of an advancing cone (21) introduced radially on the inside axially into the bearing flange (3), material (11) present on the bearing flange (3) is displaced radially towards the outside into a recessed formation (15, 16) in the inner ring (7).
Abstract:
A first inner ring and a second inner ring respectively include inner ring rolling surfaces formed so that the external radius of inner end portions is smaller than a first separation distance and formed so as to have an external radius that become larger than the first separation distance, and a first outer ring and a second outer ring respectively include outer ring rolling surfaces formed so that the internal radius of outer end portions is larger than a second separation distance and formed so as to have an internal radius that becomes smaller than the second separation distance, and the first outer ring and the second outer ring are formed integrally with each other to form an outer ring.
Abstract:
A hub bearing assembly includes a hub made of lightweight metallic material and forming a cylindrical portion, on which a tubular inner ring providing a raceway is mounted; a second inner ring is fixed on the first tubular inner ring and provides a second raceway; a cylindrical interstice is formed between the cylindrical portion of the hub and the tubular inner ring and contains a bonding brazing material which integrally joins the hub to the first tubular inner ring.
Abstract:
A rolling contact bearing includes a shaft having a first radial elevation and a second radial elevation. A first inner ring has a first raceway for the rolling bodies to roll on, a first radial narrowing and a second radial narrowing, the first radial elevation and the first radial narrowing forming a first press fit, and, respectively, the second radial elevation and the second radial narrowing forming a second press fit. The shaft has a third radial elevation and a fourth radial elevation. A second inner ring has a second, radially outer rolling body raceway for rolling bodies to roll on, a third radial narrowing and a fourth radial narrowing, wherein the third radial elevation and the third radial narrowing forming a third press fit and, respectively, the fourth radial elevation and the fourth radial narrowing forming a fourth press fit.
Abstract:
A wheel support bearing assembly includes an outer member and an inner member, each having a raceway surface. The inner member is made up of a combination of a rotatable ring, having its outer periphery formed with a vehicle body fitting flange, and a separate member. Each of the outer member and the flanged rotatable ring has a surface region representing a thermally refined structure formed by means of martensite hardening and high temperature tempering and also has a core region representing an as-forged structure made up of ferrite and pearlite.
Abstract:
A bearing device includes inner ring rolling surfaces formed so that the external radius of inner end portions of a first inner ring and a second inner ring is smaller than a first separation distance and formed so as to have an external radius that becomes larger from an inner side toward the other side, and outer ring rolling surfaces formed so that the internal radius of outer end portions of a first outer ring and a second outer ring is larger than a second separation distance and is formed so as to have an internal radius that becomes smaller from the outer side toward the inner side.
