Patent number: 11898607Abstract: A non-locating bearing assembly includes a bearing unit configured to support a rotatable component relative to a stationary component, the bearing unit including a first stationary bearing ring and a second rotatable bearing ring. The rotatable bearing ring is fixedly connectable to the rotatable component, and a bearing carrier is attached to the stationary bearing ring in a rotationally fixed but axially displaceable manner by a combination of a friction fit and an interference fit. The bearing carrier is configured to be fixedly connected to the stationary component.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2022Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: AKTIEBOLAGET SKFInventors: Juergen Barthelme, Helmut Hauck, Sebastian Kraus, Andreas Herbert Kraus, Stefanie Seufert, Alexander Dilje, Hans-Juergen Friedrich, Berthold Beyfuss

Patent number: 11835087Abstract: A non-locating bearing assembly includes a bearing unit configured to support a rotating component relative to a stationary component, the bearing unit including a stationary bearing ring and a rotatable bearing ring that are rotatable with respect to each other. The rotatable bearing ring is fixedly connectable to the rotating component, and the stationary bearing ring is mountable in the stationary component in a rotationally fixed but axially displaceable manner. A connector is provided between the stationary bearing ring and the stationary component to connect the bearing ring to the stationary component in an axially displaceable but substantially rotationally fixed manner, and the connection is provided by a combination of a friction fit and an interference fit acting in the circumferential direction.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2022Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: AKTIEBOLAGET SKFInventors: Sebastian Kraus, Helmut Hauck, Juergen Barthelme, Andreas Herbert Kraus, Hans-Juergen Friedrich, Alexander Dilje, Alfred Radina, Stefanie Seufert

Publication number: 20230095344Abstract: A rolling-element bearing for a device lubricated with a fluid includes first and second bearing rings defining an interior therebetween in which rolling elements support the first ring for rotation relative to the second ring. A pumping device is located at the interior for pumping the fluid into and/or out of the interior when an element of the rolling-element bearing rotates and the rolling-element bearing is at least partially submerged in the fluid. The pumping device may be a ring having vanes that is attached to the first bearing ring or to a cage of the bearing.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2022Publication date: March 30, 2023Inventors: Bernd Walter Norbert NAUJOKS, Andreas Herbert KRAUS, Juergen NETZER

Patent number: 6822879Abstract: An improved electromagnetic interference shield for a module includes springs in which the compression force pushes the springs in a direction that is approximately parallel to the optic axis. The springs allow significantly looser tolerances on the placement of the module on its associated printed circuit board. The shield also includes an opening near its center, the edge of which includes a plurality of teeth. When the shield is placed onto the module, the teeth bend along the negative optic axis direction and prevent the shield from being pulled away from the module. Accidental removal of the shield is thus prevented. The shield splits the enclosure ground from the internal signal ground, decreasing the capacitance between them, in turn decreasing another possible source of electromagnetic radiation. In addition, the shield is more cost efficient to manufacture since it only requires a one step assembly process.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2002Date of Patent: November 23, 2004Assignee: Emcore CorporationInventors: Lakshman Rathnam, Herbert Kraus, Dubravko Babic
