  • Patent number: 10514061
    Abstract: A linear moving bearing, comprising: a retaining portion having at least one receiving chambers at lateral sides thereof; each receiving chamber being installed with at least one set of sliding track which is formed by two round rods; each of receiving chamber formed with two stop walls at an upper and lower ends of an opening of the receiving chamber; the stop walls serving to retain the round rods in the receiving chamber; each of the set of the sliding track resisting against a sliding rod so that the round rod being slidable along the sliding track. The stop walls are screwed or buckled to an upper and a lower end of a lateral wall aside the opening of the receiving chamber. The sliding rod has a sharp angle resists against a middle area between the two round rods of a set of the sliding track.

  • Publication number: 20180180097
    Abstract: A drain proof seat of a fluid pressure bearing of a fan having a seat with a through hole for installing a fluid-pressure bearing; wherein a lower bottom of the bearing seat is formed with at least one drain-proof recess; and each drain-proof recess is a closed loop. The form of the drain-proof recess is a closed round recess, a non-round geometrical closed recess, a polygonal closed recess, or any other geometrical closed recess and all the recesses are co-centered with the through hole of the seat. Depths and widths of the drain-proof recesses are identical or not identical. Two adjacent drain-proof recesses are formed with an annular ring, and all the rings are co-centered and have identical or different width.

  • Patent number: 9518607
    Abstract: A drain proof bearing assembly includes a seat; a cylindrical bearing being receivable in a hollow space of the seat; the bearing being formed with an axial hole; an upper opening of the axial hole of the bearing being formed with an annual recess for receiving a drain proof ring; a plurality of radial notches being formed radially on an upper surface of the bearing; an outer surface of the bearing being formed with a plurality of oil guiding trenches; by the notches, the oil guiding trenches being communicated to the annular recess; and a press plate having an inner hollow penetrating hole and receivable in the hollow spate of the seat. Thereby, the fluid is prevented from draining out along the path from the spindle to the press plate. This design is effective from various kinds of bearings, such as fluid dynamic bearings, or oil bearings, etc.

  • Publication number: 20120243812
    Abstract: A fluid dynamic bearing includes a body; an inner surface of the body being formed with a plurality of sawteeth trenches; each bending angle of each tooth of the sawteeth trench being selected from one of two difference values. Each sawteeth trench has eight teeth, four at the right side and four at the left side. Eight bending angles of eight teeth of one trench are selected from two kinds of different angles which are alternatively arranged. The bearing is suitable for spindles of various rotation speeds so as to generate fluid dynamic pressure and the bearing is also suitable for various rotation speeds of spindles.
