20110211782 | Bearing Arrangement - A bearing assembly comprises at least two adjacently-disposed bearings. Each bearing includes a bearing outer ring having a cylindrical outer circumferential surface. A bearing support retains the at least two bearings such that respective rotational axes of the at least two bearings extend in parallel. A spacer has at least two cylindrical openings configured to receive the respective cylindrical outer circumferential surfaces of the bearing outer rings such that a circumferential inner surface of each opening covers at least a portion of a width of the bearing outer ring received therein and surrounds an entire circumference of the bearing outer ring received therein. The bearing support is not fixedly connected to the spacer. | 09-01-2011 |
20110222808 | Bearing Support - A bearing support is configured to retain at least two bearings disposed closely adjacent to each other in a parallel relationship. Each bearing includes a bearing outer ring having a cylindrical outer circumferential surface. The bearing support comprises at least first and second portions that are connected together. The first portion is formed as a component that has cylindrical openings configured to receive or seat the respective bearing outer rings and to surround the entire circumference of the respective bearing outer ring. The second portion is formed as a support plate. A bearing assembly includes the bearing support with a bearing seated in each of the respective cylindrical openings. | 09-15-2011 |
20110222809 | Bearing Support - A bearing support is configured to retain at least two bearings disposed closely adjacent to each other in a parallel relationship. Each bearing includes a bearing outer ring having a cylindrical outer circumferential surface. A support part includes a recess configured to hold the at least two bearings. At least one junction portion is defined in the support part adjacent portions of the cylindrical circumferential surfaces of the bearings that are not filled by the bearings when the bearings are inserted into the support part. The support part is connected with a cover part that axially abuts on the bearings. The cover part includes at least one support element, which extends into the junction portion between the bearings in the assembled state of the bearing support and at least partially fills the junction portion. | 09-15-2011 |
20110299800 | Method for the Production of a Bearing Arrangement, and Bearing Arrangement - A bearing assembly comprises at least one bearing element abutting against at least one adjacent part at a contact surface. The bearing assembly can be manufactured by disposing a reactive nano-crystalline layer between the bearing element and the adjacent part in the area of the contact surface and then initiating an exothermic reaction in the reactive nano-crystalline layer, so that the bearing element bonds to the adjacent part in a materially-connected manner. The exothermic reaction involves at least partially heating the surface area of the bearing element and/or of the adjacent part that is located in the area of the contact surface. | 12-08-2011 |
20120155794 | ROLLER BEARING AND CAGE FOR A ROLLER BEARING - A roller bearing comprises an inner ring, an outer ring and an annular cage. The annular cage retains and guides at least one roller body. The annular cage comprises at least one pocket for retaining the roller body and at least one retaining rim disposed on one axial end of the pocket. The retaining rim extends at least in the radial direction relative to a main body of the cage. | 06-21-2012 |
20120207416 | BEARING ASSEMBLY - A bearing assembly comprises a bearing support having at least one receptacle for a bearing. The bearing support also has at least one attachment segment for abutment and attachment of the bearing support onto an attachment portion of another component, such as a housing. At least one centering element protrudes in the axial direction and is disposed on the side of the attachment segment of the bearing support that faces towards the attachment portion of the other component. The at least one centering element is configured to at least partially enter into a corresponding opening in the attachment portion of the other component. | 08-16-2012 |
20120219247 | BEARING UNIT OF A SHAFT OF A PRESSURE GENERATING DEVICE - A bearing unit rotatably supports a shaft of a pressure generating device, such a boost pressure generating device of an internal combustion engine. The bearing unit includes at least a first rolling-element bearing and a second rolling-element bearing, each rolling-element bearing having an inner ring and an outer ring. An annular space is defined between the respective inner and outer rings and rolling elements are disposed in the annular space. At least one volume element is disposed in the annular space and at least partially fills the annular space in an axial area. | 08-30-2012 |
20120308170 | BEARING ARRANGEMENT - A bearing assembly comprises at least one bearing that includes at least one outer ring having a recess at at least one circumferential position. A bearing support has at least one receptacle that receives the at least one outer ring. At least one engagement element is disposed on or in the bearing support and engages in the recess in an interference-fit manner to prevent the rotation of the outer ring relative to the bearing support. | 12-06-2012 |
20120314986 | BEARING ARRANGEMENT - A bearing assembly includes a bearing support having at least one bearing and at least one receptacle for at least one outer ring of the at least one bearing. The outer ring of the bearing has at least one annular groove, into which a snap ring is inserted relative to the bearing support in order to axially fix the outer ring. At least one alignment element is disposed on or in the bearing support. The snap ring is retained by alignment element relative to the bearing support at a defined angle relative to the rotational axis of the bearing. | 12-13-2012 |
20130299303 | DEVICE FOR BRAKING AND/OR BLOCKING A SHAFT OF A VEHICLE TRANSMISSION AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A DEVICE - A vehicle transmission includes a housing part, a shaft extending from the housing part, and a spring element having a plurality of spring windings wound around the shaft, a first end of the spring element being fixed to the housing part. An actuating means is attached to a second end of the spring element and is configured to twist the second end in a circumferential direction of the spring element to thereby cause the spring element to tighten and frictionally contact an outer circumference of the shaft. The spring element is comprised of a hollow cylindrical metal base body having a helical-shaped incision that defines the plurality of spring windings. The incision may be formed in the hollow cylindrical base body by a plasma beam process, by a laser cutting process, by a flame cutting process or by a water jet cutting process. | 11-14-2013 |
