  • Patent number: 8797515
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method capable of measuring large deformation with a high accuracy and dynamically, using speckle interference, utilizes an optical path where one laser beam out of two laser beams becomes non-collimated light and a plane parallel transparent plate, and can form carrier fringes. More specifically, the transparent plate is arranged on the optical path where the non-collimated light is formed, or is removed from the optical path, or a refractive index, or a thickness of the transparent plate arranged on the optical path, or a tilt angle relative to an optical axis is changed. The phase analysis can be performed from fringe images corresponding to the deformation, by performing repetitively the above-described processing and acquisition of the speckle interference pattern.

    Abstract: There is provided a clutch release bearing in which a water resistance is enhanced. At a side axially opposite from one side where an outer ring rib of a clutch release bearing is formed, there is provided a first seal member externally fitted to an outer ring to be fixed thereto. A seal lip disposed in sliding contact with an outside-diameter surface of an inner ring is formed at a radially-inward distal end of the first seal member. An annular guide is provided at a bearing-outward side of the first seal member, and an axial lip which extends toward the outside of the bearing and extends to be disposed radially outwardly of the guide is formed at a bearing-outward side face of the first seal member. The axial lip is disposed in non-contact, close relation to the guide to form a labyrinth. A radially outwardly-open groove is formed in a joint portion of the axial lip joined to the first seal member.
