    Abstract: A high performance anti-friction bearing assembly for use in supporting a low torque stabilized platform as, for example, a gun platform mounted on aircraft, a ship or a land vehicle. The bearing assembly comprises three rings of forged alloy steel separated by two axially spaced rings of balls along elements of converging conical surfaces. The balls and their cooperating raceways have a conformity factor of approximately 0.59 and are pre-loaded against these raceways at a normally prevailing contact angle of 35.degree.. The high conformity factor together with various other design features provide a bearing for a stabilized platform operating at high efficiency with minimal torque losses under both simultaneous and non-simultaneous axial, radial and moment load conditions and associated distortio

    Abstract: A metallic positive expulsion fuel tank with stress free weld seams may include a first hemispherical shell with a first edge; a pressurized gas inlet attached to the first hemispherical shell; and a metallic cylinder with first and second edges attached to the first hemispherical shell along matching first edges by a first weld seam. The tank may also include a second hemispherical shell with a first edge attached to a fuel outlet fixture. An elastomeric diaphragm may be attached to the fuel outlet fixture on the second hemispherical shell. The second hemispherical shell may be attached to the second edge of the metallic cylinder along matching edges by a second weld seam thereby forming a positive expulsion fuel tank with two interior chambers separated by the elastomeric diaphragm. The first and second weld seams may be subjected to a localized post-weld stress relief heat treatment in which heating of the tank is confined to a distance of 2 inches (5.08 cm) of the first weld seam and a distance of 2 inches (5.08 cm) of the second weld seam such that the stresses in the first and second weld seams are relieved and the elastomeric diaphragm is unaffected by the heat treatment.

    Abstract: A high-performance low-torque anti-friction bearing assembly having numerous applications including dynamic support of a stabilized platform under severe operating conditions. The assembly consists of two rings provided with two pairs of raceways having respective rows of balls therebetween preferably under static preload. The balls and their raceways have a conformity factor of approximately 0.56 to 0.60 and the two rows of balls are in contact with a respective pair of raceways at converging similar contact angles of about 35 degrees. The ratio of the ball path diameter and the square root of the cross-sectional area of the bearing is at least 15. A bearing incorporating these features performs at high efficiency with minimal torque losses under both simultaneous and non-simultaneous axial, radial and moment load conditions and associated distortions.
