  • Patent number: 4754991
    Abstract: A method and buffer apparatus for preventing corrosion in a dynamic load bearing assembly. A resilient buffer material is compressively adjustably positioned between a pair of dynamic adjacent load bearing components in a machine such that the amount of electrical resistance between the load bearing components can be varied without having to disassemble the machine. The buffer material is maintained in position between the load bearing components by compressing the buffer material an amount equal to 5 to 30% of its length to outwardly expand surfaces of the buffer material against the load bearing members.
