Abstract: A lamp box with a color variable light source comprises a metal halide lamp, a bowl-like reflector, a power source, a filter and a drive motor in its body. The body of the lamp box is connected with optical fibers through a fiber optic plug. The fiber optic plug comprises a fiber optic internal sleeve, a fiber optic position sleeve, a position pole, a holder and a rear base seal sleeve. The fiber optic internal sleeve is settled inside the fiber optic position sleeve. The holder, the fiber optic position sleeve and the fiber optic internal sleeve are fastened by the position pole. Even if the fiber optic position sleeve and the optical fibers in the fiber optic internal sleeve rotate, the fiber optic plug will not depart from the body of the light source lamp box.

Abstract: A sealing device for use in a motor. The motor, which maintains a shaft: and a frame that are interconnected by a bearing, includes a magnetic-fluid-seating device and a collecting device. The magnetic-fluid-sealing device seals the bearing with a magnetic fluid to prevent particles and fluids from escaping the bearing, whereas, the collecting device collects any particles and fluids which may escape the magnetic-fluid-sealing device.

Abstract: The present invention offers a simple structure that facilitates the mounting of bearings, that maintains lubricating oil at a sufficient level in the bearing portions and that maintains an optimal distance between a rotor and a case housing for preventing freezing, for preventing reduction of the capacity and for preventing noise. Bearing stoppers provided between the bearings of the brushless motor and the bearing holders, which hold the upper end edge of each bearing, are secured at a projection formed at the internal circumferential surface of each bearing holder. A felt, which comes in contact with the lower portion of each bearing stopper and also comes in contact with the bearing at one side is provided, with holes communicating with the felt formed at the lower surface of the bearing stopper. In addition, the lower limit of the distance h between the lower end of the rotor and the upper end surface of the case housing is set at 1.5 mm.

Abstract: A motor bearing system is provided in which a motor shaft is received by a bearing which is circumferentially engaged by a first lubricating felt washer. A second lubricating felt washer is received by a retaining cup opposite the first lubricating felt washer, with a motor bracket interposed therebetween. The second lubricating felt washer is forced into contacting engagement with the first such washer by means of pins extending from the retaining cup and passing through apertures within the end bracket. Accordingly, the effective lubricating reservoir is significantly increased and the integrity of the lubricating reservoir is maintained.

Abstract: A lubricant slinger mechanism for preventing the loss of oil or other lubricant which is pumped between the rotor shaft and bearing in an electric motor or other dynamoelectric machine. The slinger is mounted to the rotor shaft and mounted adjacent the end of the bearing out of which oil flow at it is pumped along the shaft from the reservoir. The slinger initially throws the oil radially outward against an inner oil well cover, and the provision of an impeller, such as a spiral vane on the outer peripheral surface of the slinger, imparts an axial component of velocity to the lubricant which impels it rearwardly toward the reservoir and prevents the migration of oil out of the forward end of the oil cover through which the rotor shaft extends. The slinger, in one form thereof, includes an annular cup portion which overhangs the end of the bearing so that lubricant is thrown off the slinger at a point rearwardly of the end of the bearing.

Abstract: A self-aligning, self-contained, self-lubricating cartridge bearing assembly including a nonporous bearing member having a central bore sized to receive a rotatable shaft. The bearing member has an aperture extending radially from its central bore to its outer surface to receive a contractor made of fibrous material. The bearing member may be made of die cast aluminum alloy. The bearing member is held in a mounting member by two retainers. An oil-impregnated wicking material surrounds the bearing member and contactor. An oil slinger sized to fit on the rotatable shaft for rotation therewith is positioned adjacent to the bearing member to sling lubricant radially outward. End caps are provided which retain the oil-impregnated wicking material inside the bearing assembly. In some embodiments, the retainers are resilient spring elements which, by their resilience, hold the bearing member in a captive ball and socket configuration.
