20100142870JOURNAL BEARING - A journal bearing which can be constructed without leading to decrease in rigidity and increase in size, in which lubrication oil can be supplied to the bearing surfaces of the pads with certainty. The journal bearing 06-10-2010
20100150485Compensation of Rotational Shaft Inclination - Bearing arrangement for a shaft rotatable around an axis of rotation comprising a first bearing for rotatably mounting an end of the shaft for rotation thereof around the axis of rotation, and a second bearing for pivotably mounting the end of the shaft for pivoting movements out of the axis of rotation, and an arrangement comprising a shaft, as well as an oscillator, each comprising the bearing arrangement.06-17-2010
20100158421Shaft stabiliser - A load transfer arrangement is provided to act as a stabiliser for utilisation in centring rotational instabilities which may occur in rotor devices such as those within a gas turbine engine. By providing a fixed screw thread path which comprises a groove having channels and having constrictions and which define clearance crowns an acceptable eccentricity range it is possible to slow screw thread driving motion and therefore load transfer only to the positions where the rotational eccentricity enters tapers leading to the constrictions. In such circumstances an orbit thread is then progressively brought into confinement and continuous engagement with a fixed screw thread defined by crowns of channels of the fixed screw thread path defined by the continuous groove through the channels. In such circumstances wide eccentricity is allowed initially but as rotational speed reduces greater and more continuous driving motions are provided whilst avoiding excessive loading during early stage operation. High loads on final rundown contact are controlled by a diaphragm mount, the whole serving to restore the support stiffness of the rotor post fusing.06-24-2010
20100322542SELF-ALIGNING JOURNAL BEARING - A rotary machine includes a housing, and a rotating component received therein for rotation relative to the housing.
