Abstract: Measurements of roller skewing of a 1.15 length to diameter ratio roller in 118 mm bore roller bearings of 0.18 and 0.21 mm (0.0073 and 0.0083 in.) clearance operating with a 4450 N (1000 ...

Abstract: A derotation prism was used to produce a stationary image of balls deflecting a portion of the separator. Ball to cage contact forces in a 110 mm bearing at speeds to 12,000 rpm were found ...

Abstract: Stresses in dimensionally similar large models of 40-, 50- and 60-percent mass reduction cylindrically hollow “drilled” bearing balls were experimentally evaluated with flat strain gage rosettes. ...

Abstract: Spherically hollow balls of 21.7, 50.0 and 56.5 percent mass reduction have been operated in ball bearings and in a 5-ball fatigue tester with differing outcomes. Available theoretical and ...

Abstract: A series-hybrid bearing assembly consisting of a conical hydrostatic fluid-film bearing and a ball bearing is described. Computer studies are used to predict friction torque and life characteristics ...

Abstract: Equations for the flow rate, load capacity, and friction torque for a conical hydrostatic bearing were developed. These equations were solved by a digital computer program to determine bearing ...
