  • Pedestal bearing and production plant with such a pedestal bearing
    Patent number: 12698804
    Abstract: A pedestal bearing that has a pedestal bearing housing with a bearing seat, a cooling duct system with at least one cooling duct, and an anti-friction bearing arranged in the bearing seat and has an anti-friction bearing outer ring. The bearing seat has a first inner circumferential side. The pedestal bearing housing has a first contact surface and is configured to transmit a bearing force (F) from the anti-friction bearing outer ring to the first contact surface. The cooling duct extends circumferentially and is configured to conduct a coolant, which can be fed into the cooling duct in order to cool the anti-friction bearing and/or the pedestal bearing housing. The first inner circumferential side of the bearing seat of the pedestal bearing housing delimits the cooling duct radially on the outside and the anti-friction bearing outer ring delimits the cooling duct radially on the inside.
