  • Publication number: 20240068515
    Abstract: A bearing assembly, in particular for a converter, including a rolling bearing having an outer ring which is arranged in an inner housing, the inner housing being movable with respect to an outer housing in the axial direction of the rolling bearing by means of a two-row linear rolling bearing structure, and the rotational axes of all the rolling elements in each row of the linear rolling bearing structure lying in a common plane, and the two planes being at an oblique angle to one another. At least one anti-rotation element which engages in a mating contour in the outer housing is connected to the inner housing.

  • Publication number: 20220247159
    Abstract: A switch assembly for mounting on a mounting rail, having a power supply unit and having a switchgear. The power supply unit has a housing and a power supply, arranged therein, which comprises a first connection and a second connection. A contact region having a first contact, which is in electrical contact with the first connection, and having a second contact, which is in electrical contact with the second connection, is introduced into the housing. The housing has a fastening apparatus for direct placement on the mounting rail, and the switchgear comprises an additional housing having an additional fastening apparatus for direct placement on the mounting rail. The switchgear has a lever which is pivotably mounted on the additional housing and which has a first counterpart contact and a second counterpart contact.

  • Patent number: 10622177
    Abstract: A switching device having a housing, with a cover that can pivot about a rotational axis, and a securing device for carrier rail mounting. The cover has at least one coupling contact for an electrical and/or signal-type contact connection with at least one engageable switching device. A closing or releasing of the contact connection occurs with a pivoting of the cover. A locking or unlocking of the securing device occurs with a pivoting of the cover. The securing device has a spring-elastic clipping element shaped on the housing, for force-locking securing to a carrier rail end face, and has a sliding element, which is mounted such that it can slide in a linear manner within the housing and is coupled to the cover, for interlocking securing to the carrier rail end face opposite the clipping element.

  • Patent number: 8469600
    Abstract: A roller bearing cage for guiding rolling bodies in a rolling body bearing, which has multiple rolling bodies, two cage side elements, between which the rolling bodies are arranged, and which have multiple web appendages to guide the rolling bodies, and multiple connection elements that connect the two cage side elements. The azimuthal position of the connection elements defines a connection area. Exactly one connection element and at least one web appendage are arranged in a connection. The connection element and web appendage are arranged in sections inside a radial interior of the respective cage side elements, the border of which is defined by the positions of the rotation axes of the rolling bodies.

  • Patent number: 8237311
    Abstract: An electrical switching device which enables an electrical system, particularly a power distribution system, is structured rationally and simply. The switching device, in particular embodied in the form of a rail-mounted device, contains a housing and, included therein, a switching unit for interrupting an electrical circuit, and a supply connection for feeding a current to the switching unit. The supply connection has a first coupling contact for connecting to a current busbar, a load connection for connecting a feed conductor of a load circuit to the switching unit, and a return connection which has a connecting terminal for connecting to the return conductor of the load circuit and a second coupling contact connected to the connecting terminal inside the housing for connecting to a second current busbar.
