Abstract: A device includes a first bearing, at least one second bearing, a first bearing-attachment element configured to exert a first force on an outer ring of the first bearing, and at least one second bearing-attachment element configured to exert a second force on an outer ring of the second bearing. The first bearing-attachment element is configured also to exert a third force on the outer ring of the second bearing.

Abstract: A bearing assembly includes a roller bearing connected with a bearing support having a plate-shaped section. The bearing support has a receiving bore for an outer ring of the roller bearing, and the outer ring of the roller bearing is affixed to the bearing support with two affixing plates that are fixed to first and second end sides of the bearing support and that clamp the outer ring at two clamping surfaces. An axial spacing of the first and second end sides of the bearing support is smaller than an axial spacing of the clamping surfaces of the outer ring, and the two affixing plates have a different mechanical strength.

Abstract: A rolling-element bearing assembly includes a bearing ring and a flange. The bearing ring has a surface including at least one circumferential groove extending at least partially around the bearing ring, and the flange projects radially inwardly or radially outwardly from the surface and has a flange section at a radially inner edge or radially outer edge of the flange that projects into the groove. A hardened casting material secures the flange to the surface.

Abstract: A ring of a synchronizing device of a vehicle transmission includes a friction surface that interacts with a friction surface of another ring of the synchronizing device and at least one slide surface configured to slidably seat on an abutment surface of the synchronizing device. At least one curved groove is cut into the at least one slide surface by a whirling milling operation.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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 that extends into the junction portion between the bearings in the assembled state of the bearing support and at least partially fills the junction portion.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.
