  • Patent number: 7278332
    Abstract: A linear motion device has: a linear motion body externally fitted onto a shaft and making a relative linear motion along the shaft; a plurality of balls retained in a rolling element groove formed in an inner surface of the linear motion body, and rolling between the rolling element groove and the shaft; separators interposed among the balls; and a circulating path formed in the linear motion body and for circulating the balls from one end side of the rolling element groove to the other end side thereof; wherein the linear motion device is charged with grease containing base oil which is 220-395 in worked penetration defined by JIS K2220 and 50-500 mm2/s in kinematic viscosity at 40° C.

  • Patent number: 7265080
    Abstract: The rolling bearing of the invention to be incorporated in the compressor for fuel cell system comprises a fluorine-based grease containing a fluororesin and a fluorine-based oil, a urea grease containing a urea compound and a synthetic oil or a lithium complex grease containing a lithium complex and a synthetic oil encapsulated therein. In this arrangement, the grease deterioration of the rolling bearing incorporated in the compressor for force-feeding various fluids between machines can be prevented, making it possible to provide a fuel cell system which can maintain stable operation over an extended period of time.

  • Publication number: 20070149422
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a grease composition for resin lubrication which is capable of keeping good the sliding lubrication between a resin member and a metal member, and between a metal member and another metal member over the long term. The present invention provides a grease composition for resin composition which is characterized by including a base, a thickener, and at least one of a nonpolar wax and a polar wax. Further, the grease composition for resin lubrication is applied to a telescopic shaft for vehicle steering or an electric power steering apparatus, thereby to improve the durability, and to achieve a longer life.

  • Patent number: 7196042
    Abstract: A grease composition is produced by mixing a thickener comprising a fluoro resin and a second thickener component (a metallic soap, a complex metallic soap, an N-substituted terephthalamic acid metal salt, organic bentonite or a calcium sulfonate complex) into a base oil. This grease composition is excellent in heat resistance, load carring capacity, water resistance, rust protection, lubricating life and the like. A rolling apparatus filled with the above grease composition has excellent lubricating ability and is long-lived under high-temperature conditions. Moreover, a grease composition is produced by mixing a thickener comprising a fluoro resin and carbon black as a second thickener component into a base oil. This grease composition is excellent in heat resistance, water resistance, rust protection, lubricating life, electric conductivity and the like. A rolling apparatus filled with the above grease composition has excellent electric conductivity and is long-lived under high-temperature conditions.
