Abstract: A bearing ring is provided, including a body and an end face (3; 6). The problem of providing a bearing assembly having a space-saving preloading device which can be actuated quickly is solved for this bearing ring by a piston (8; 15) of a fluidic preloading device; the piston being accommodated in the end face (3; 6). A bearing assembly is also provided including a bearing (2) having a bearing ring (1) and a first fluidic preloading device for setting a bearing preload, this preloading device acting on a first end face (3) of the bearing ring (1), and further including a second fluidic preloading device which acts in the opposite direction on a second end face (6) of the bearing ring (1).

Abstract: A method for producing a bearing ring (20, 29), in particular a tapered roller bearing ring, including the following steps: making available an annular disc (8; 9), and forming the disc (8; 9) to provide a substantially cylindrical bearing ring and producing a raceway (19; 28) of the bearing ring in a single operation by extrusion. According to the invention, the method achieves the object of providing a simple method for producing bearing rings, in particular for tapered roller bearings, which delivers high unit numbers and in which it is possible to dispense with a finishing operation.

Abstract: A ready-to-install needle bearing including a thin-walled outer ring (1) that is shaped without cutting and is provided with radially inwardly-facing stop rims (2) on both sides. Needle rollers (7) roll between the stop rims (2) on an associated external raceway (9). The inventive needle bearing is characterized in that an associated internal raceway (10) is formed by a thin-walled inner ring (3) which is shaped without cutting and is fitted with radially outwardly-facing stop rims (4) on both sides. The needle rollers (7) roll in a cageless manner or are disposed in a cage such that a captive ready-to-install needle bearing unit is created by using a positive gripping action, thus dispensing with the need for a part that is to be mounted having to act as a raceway.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of a roller bearing (5) which does not require machining, wherein the roller bearing (5) has a bearing inner ring and a bearing outer ring (3a?, 3b?) and at least one rolling body row (9) guided between said rings in raceways (8a, 8b). In order to be able to implement the production of the bearing rings (3a?, 3b?) including the raceways (8a, 8b) for the rolling bodies (9) according to a forming method which does not involve machining, in a manner which is more cost-effective with respect to known production methods, a ring element (3) is initially produced from a sheet metal blank (1) by means of dies and pressure forming, the ring element having a section (3a) lying radially on the inside, a ring-shaped section (3b) lying radially on the outside, and having a central recess (4), raceways (8a, 8b), and preferably a set breaking point (6) between the two ring-shaped sections (3a, 3b).

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotating, disc-shaped, agricultural tool which is mounted in a frame of a machine via a hub and a bearing arrangement. The bearing arrangement is distinguished by the fact that it is formed from two angular roller bearings which are set in back-to-back arrangement and whose raceways are arranged inclined at an angle to a bearing axis, wherein a space accommodation the angular roller bearings is defined on the outside in the radial direction by a hub body, of V-shaped design in its centre part and having contact surfaces, and on the inside in the radial direction by a supporting ring having spaced-apart contact surfaces on both sides in the axial direction, wherein the hub body is provided at an axial end with a fastening element for fastening the tool. In this way, a captive bearing unit is provided which is already provided with the appropriate prestress and which only needs to be connected to the agricultural tool and to the frame by the end user, i.e.

Abstract: A linear motor includes a secondary part (1) having several permanent magnets (4) disposed behind one another with alternating orientation of the polarity, or excitation windings. These permanent magnets (4) or excitation windings are wound helically around a rotation axis. Furthermore, there is provided a primary part (2) having a current-carrying winding disposed in parallel relationship to the permanent magnets (4) or excitation windings and arranged about the rotation axis such that a magnetic traveling field travels helically about the rotation axis.

Abstract: A joint with a pin (1) comprising an inner member (2), a center member (6), a housing body (8) and a flange ring (12) arranged in one another via rolling bearings (4,5,10,13,14,18,19,20) for pivoting or rotating about their rotational axis (3,7,15) which advantageously create a rolling bearing-mounted joint which has a high rigidity and a comparatively low frictional and pivoting resistance useful for achieving a high positioning precision in machine tools of a hexapod system.

Abstract: A machine tool includes several telescopic struts, each of which being formed by an inner tube and outer tube arranged within one another. The telescopic struts are articulated at their one end to a frame and at their other end to a tool holder. The outer tube is formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced recesses, with each of the recesses accommodating a recirculating ball bearing unit which includes a carrier body provided with endless ball tracks. Each endless ball track is divided in a load-bearing section and an unstressed, non-load-bearing return portion. The inner tube has ball tracks, with balls rolling along the ball tracks of the carrier body and the inner tube whereby the balls are guided from the load-bearing section into the return section.
