  • Patent number: 10054156
    Abstract: A large thrust ball bearing, retainer, and raceways, using a surface treatment such as hard anodize, lowers the friction and wear. The retainer, molded in synthetic resin with self-lubricated material reinforced with carbon fiber such as MoS2, and PTPE, eliminates the thermal viscosity. Multi-segment retainers, each with an inner race-guided configuration, an alternative ball pocket cross-section design with a slotted configuration, reduce the thermal effects, improve the producibility of the retainer, and reduce the manufacturing cost. The pocket design with an oval cross-section instead of a circular cross-section also reduces the localized thermal-induced effect which would otherwise result in a pinching condition between the ball and the retainer. The alternative slotted retainer pocket design increases the compliance between ball/pocket interfaces, which helps to reduce the dynamic effects.

  • Patent number: 10003676
    Abstract: The invention describes a network lookup engine for generating parallel network lookup requests for input packets, where each packet header is parsed and represented by a programmable parser in a format, namely a token, which is understandable by the engine. Each token can require multiple lookups in parallel in order to speed up the packet processing time. The sizes of lookup keys varies depending on the content of the input token and the protocols programmed for the engine. The engine generates a super key per token, representing all parallel lookup keys wherein the content of each key can be extracted from the super key through an associated profile identification. The network lookup engine is protocol-independent which means the conditions and rules for generating super keys are full programmable so that the engine can be reprogrammed to perform a wide variety of network features and protocols in a software-defined networking (SDN) system.

  • Patent number: 10001999
    Abstract: A new approach is proposed which contemplates system and method for configuring a plurality of configurable registers in a programmable digital processing engine of a network device. Under the proposed approach, one or more slave configuration controllers (SCC) are utilized to configure a large number of configurable registers in a programmable engine, wherein each SCC is used to configure a plurality of configurable registers, which are organized in multiple configuration groups. The configurable registers in each configuration group are connected in a looped one-way daisy chain. During its operation, each of the slave configuration controllers is configured to receive instructions from a user via a master configuration controller (MCC), performs read or write operations on the configurable registers of one of the configuration groups as designated by the instructions from the user.

  • Publication number: 20170370406
    Abstract: A thrust ball bearing retainer a large size of bearings with the bearing raceways being modified using a surface enhancement process such as hard anodizing coating, which provides low friction coefficient and initial wear rate. The retainer material is selected to be molded, synthetic resin, self-lubricated material reinforced with carbon fiber, molybdenum disulfide, and PTPE. This lubrication system eliminates the thermal induced bearing torque effect due to viscosity. The retainer contains multiply segments with an inner race guided configuration, an alternative ball pocket cross section design and a ball pocket slotted configuration (1) to reduce the thermal induced effects due to coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch between the raceway and the retainer material (2) to enhance the producibility of the retainer due to out-of-round, out-of-flatness and torsional wrap, and (3) to reduce the manufacturing cost.
