Steering Device

Номер: US20120193901A1
Автор: Masaya Jouta, Satoru NAGASAWA
Принадлежит: NSK LTD

A steering device contains a rolling bearing that axially supports a steering shaft to allow rotation, and whose upper column and lower column engage along the axis in a sliding motion in order to provide improved steering wheel operating stability during high-speed driving. The elastic force of an O-ring tightens the outer circumferential surface of a female steering shaft against the cylindrical surface of a bushing. A specific frictional force therefore occurs between the cylindrical surface of the bushing and the outer circumferential surface of the female steering shaft so that handling stability of the steering wheel during high-speed driving is improved. Moreover, vehicle vibrations are prevented from being conveyed to the steering wheel by the O-ring crushed due to the pressing force of the inner circumferential surface of the first lower column and that absorbs the vibration of the female steering shaft.

ROLLING ELEMENT BEARING CARTRIDGE WITH AXIAL THRUST DAMPING AND ANTI-ROTATION ASSEMBLIES

Номер: US20130202432A1
Автор: Bucking Michael, Cavagnaro Augustine, Diemer Paul, Harris Mike, House Timothy
Принадлежит: BORGWARNER INC.

To solve both axial and rotational constraint problems in turbochargers with rolling element bearings (REBs), a REB sleeve or outer race is mounted to the bearing housing in a way that is not axially and radially rigid, thus allowing for oil damping films both radially and axially. At the same time, the REB sleeve or outer race is held so that the REB sleeve or outer race does not rotate relative to the bearing housing. This dual purpose is achieved using an anti-rotation ring and a damping ring. The anti-rotation ring includes at least one anti-rotation feature for engaging the bearing housing and at least one anti-rotation feature for engaging the REB cartridge, preventing rotation of the REB cartridge sleeve or outer race. The damping ring axially locates the REB cartridge and dampens axial movement and cushions axial thrust. 1.

Gas turbine shaft bearing system service tool and bearing system service method

Принадлежит: Siemens Energy Inc

A gas turbine shaft bearing system (bearing and/or seal component) service method and service tool that applies biasing force between a gas turbine shaft and a bearing system component supporting the shaft, so that the bearing system component can be removed or installed. The bearing system service tool is coupled directly to the bearing system component and the shaft, preferably without the need for external fixtures. A biasing force generator, such as a hydraulic unit applies a force on the bearing system component to cause component movement on or off the shaft. Counter-biasing forces are resisted by the fixed position turbine shaft. By exerting biasing force directly between the turbine shaft and bearing system component the service tool can be constructed of smaller, man portable components that are more easily maneuvered within relatively confined turbine service spaces, which are common in field installations.

To optimize engagement between a worm gear shaft and a worm gear wheel, the pivotable rotary bearing pivots relative to the housing about a pivot axis perpendicular to the rotation axis and to the spacing axis. A support point of the support device is offset relative to the rotation axis along the spacing axis towards the engagement region.

A rolling-element bearing assembly includes a support element and a bearing ring mounted on the support element. The bearing ring includes a substantially axial mounting surface in contact with the support element and a running surface configured to support a rolling element. The running surface has a first edge and a second edge axially spaced from the first edge and an axial width of the running surface is greater than an axial width of the mounting surface. The bearing ring includes a first cantilevered portion having a top surface, the top surface being a first end portion of the running surface, and a bottom surface facing the support element. The first cantilevered portion does not contact the support element and, extending axially from a junction of the support element and the mounting surface, a radial width of the first cantilevered portion decreases and then increases. 1.

Disclosed herein are a high-voltage generator () for an x-ray source, an x-ray gun, an electron beam apparatus, a rotary vacuum seal, a target assembly for an x-ray source, a rotary x-ray emission target (), and an x-ray source. These various aspects may separately and/or together enable the construction of an x-ray source which can operate at energies of up to 500 kV and beyond, which is suitable for use in commercial and research x-ray applications such as computerised tomography. In particular, the high-voltage generator includes a shield electrode () electrically connected intermediate of a first voltage multiplier () and a second voltage multiplier (). The electron beam apparatus includes control photodetectors (—not shown) and photo emitters () having a transparent conductive shield (and —not shown) arranged therebetween. The rotary vacuum seal includes a pumpable chamber () at a position intermediate between high-pressure and low-pressure ends of a bore () for a rotating shaft (). The rotary target assembly is configured such that when a torque between a bearing housing () and a vacuum housing exceeds a predetermined torque, the bearing housing rotates relative to the vacuum housing. The rotary x-ray emission target () has a plurality of target plates () supported on a hub, the plates being arranged on the hub to provide an annular target region about an axis rotation of the hub. The x-ray gun is provided with a shield electrode () maintained at a potential difference relative to the x-ray target different to the electron beam emission cathode.
