  • Patent number: 9366291
    Abstract: A method for combining a sleeve and bearings, comprising the steps of: providing a base having a sleeve; disposing at least one bearing in the sleeve; and providing a laser beam to illuminate and melt a contact place between the perimeter of the bearing and the sleeve such that the bearing and the sleeve is combined firmly. Therefore, the effects of securing the bearings, reinforcing the structure thereof, and increasing the lifetimes of the bearings and the sleeve can be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20150125276
    Abstract: A bearing holding structure includes a base and at least one bearing. The base includes a bearing cup, which is axially extended from a center of the base and defines a receiving space therein. The bearing is fitted in the receiving space of the bearing cup and has a shaft hole. At least one groove is provided on one or both of an inner surface of the bearing cup and an outer surface of the bearing; and the groove is communicable with the receiving space of the bearing cup. The groove is filled with a meltable filler, which is melted by laser welding to fixedly connect the bearing and the bearing cup to one another, such that the bearing is not brought by a rotary shaft to rotate and slide in the bearing cup, enabling the bearing and the bearing cup to have prolonged service life.

  • Publication number: 20140355917
    Abstract: A connection structure for a shaft and a bearing includes a shaft and at least one bearing. The bearing has a shaft hole for the shaft to insert therein, a first face and a second face opposite to the first face. An outer circumference of the shaft is welded with a circumference of the shaft hole in adjacency to the first face of the bearing to form at least one first welding section connected between contact sections of the outer circumference of the shaft and the circumference of the shaft hole in adjacency to the first face. Via the first welding section, the shaft is integrally connected with the bearing. Therefore, the shaft and the bearing are more securely fixed with each other and the manufacturing cost is lowered.

  • Publication number: 20130189076
    Abstract: A series fan assembly structure includes a first fan and a second fan mated with the first fan. The first fan includes a first frame body and at least one mating section diagonally positioned on two opposite corners of one side of the first frame body. The second fan includes a second frame body and at least one connection section diagonally positioned on two opposite corners of one side of the second frame body corresponding to the mating section. The connection section is connected with the mating section, whereby the series fan assembly structure is easy to rework and has better vibration absorption effect.
