Abstract: This invention relates to a rotary structure adapted to be used as a spindle unit for a miniature motor or miniature rotor or as a tape guide roller for a VTR. In the structure of the rotary mechanism, instead of a conventional expensive radial ball bearing, a substantially V-shaped groove is formed on a shaft itself so as to hold balls provided between this groove and the tapered surface or concave spherical ball receiving surface of an outer race provided around the groove.

Abstract: This invention relates to a rotary head assembly to be used for digital audio tape recorders (DAT) and the like. A magnetic tape can be made to run parallelly with a drum, the apparatus can be made small and light and the mechanism can be simplified.
Abstract: This invention is to provide a ball bearing which has a performance close to that of the conventional radial ball bearing, is simple in the formation and is low in the cost for such bearing as for fitting the disc of a disc recording and reproducing device or the roller of the drawer of a desk or the like.
Abstract: A rotary structure adapted to be used as a spindle unit for a miniature motor or miniature rotor or as a tape guide roller for a VTR. In the structure of the rotary mechanism, instead of a conventional expensive radial ball bearing, a groove of a semicircular cross-section is formed in a shaft itself so as to hold balls between this groove and the ball receiving concave surface of an outer race provided around the groove.
