  • Patent number: 7883273
    Abstract: An end portion of a pin 2 rotatably supporting a rolling body 1 is fitted in a pin-receiving hole 4 formed in an annular side plate 3. The pin-receiving hole 4 has interference in a range from 5 to 40 ?m between itself and the outer diameter of the pin 2. The end portion of the pin 2 pressed in the pin-receiving hole 4 with 5-40 ?m interference is welded to the annular side plate 3.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7535809
    Abstract: A system and method of drawing a visible image on an optical disk are provided. The optical disk is rotated while a optical pickup irradiates a laser beam onto the optical disk to draw the visible image on the optical disk. The rotating state of the optical disk is detected. The optical pickup is fed in a radial direction of the optical disk. An irradiating position of the laser beam is controlled relative to the optical disk by fixing the laser beam in the radial direction of the optical disk during one rotation of the optical disk, and shifting the irradiating position of the laser beam by a first distance in the radial direction each time one rotation of the optical disk is detected. The optical pickup is fed in the radial direction by a second distance the optical disk has rotated a predetermined number of rotations.

  • Patent number: 6152606
    Abstract: Circumferential grooves 6c and 6d are respectively formed in the outer peripheral surface 6a and inner peripheral surface 6b of a floating ring 6, and the circumferential groove 6d is used to form a lubricant feed portion 8 in a clearance 7 between the outer peripheral surface 1a of an inner race 1 and itself, while the circumferential groove 6c is used to form another lubricant feed portion 8 in another clearance 7 between the inner peripheral surface 5b of a cage 5 and itself, thereby being able to improve lubricating conditions between the two respective partner portions.
