A final drive shaft fractures at a reduced diameter breaking portion inside the housing to contain broken ends.
A composite roll bearing uses retainer portions to hold radial rollers, eliminating sliding contact with the inner ring raceway.
Insert-molded stepped bearings in a ball joint structure prevent resin permeation, reduce weight, and eliminate complex assembly processes.
Multi-component fibers bond PTFE with a polymer matrix to improve fiber-matrix adhesion and reduce breaking points in slide layers.
Optimizing contact angle and pocket geometry reduces slippage, preventing abnormal noise and temperature rises in grease-lubricated bearings.
Non-magnetic shunt side bearings reduce radial flux transfer and lateral forces on solenoid armatures.
Enlarged recirculation channels and tapered sealing gaps use centrifugal force to remove air bubbles, preventing accumulation that impairs bearing reliability.
A plastic one-piece housing encloses two bearing shells with a gap, converting curing shrinkage into contact pressure to resolve manufacturing precision issues.
Manufacturing method for fluid dynamic bearing devices sets thrust bearing clearances by forming axial clearance between bearing and sealing members.
