  • Patent number: 5810483
    Abstract: The invention concerns a spindle unit with a spindle, a casing, antifriction bearings that are prestressed and support the spindles on two places at a distance from each other in a casing, and a centrifugal regulator, which reduces the prestress on the antifriction bearings as the rotational speed increases, as a result of which the centrifugal regulator is produced as a springy, axially expanding bush with resilient arch-like parts between two compression components and each mass on the arch-like parts.
