Bearing arrangement
Abstract:
A bearing arrangement (30) comprises an inner support annulus (33), an outer support annulus (31), and a plurality of rollers (34) therebetween. At least one of the inner and the outer support annulus (33, 31) comprises one or more radially extending rigid supports (37) and one or more damping sectors (38a, 38b, 38c). The one or more rigid supports (37) are circumferentially interposed between one or more damping sectors (38a, 38b, 38c). Each damping sector (38a, 38b, 38c) comprises at least one damping member (39) comprising an elongate flexible member held rigidly at one or both ends thereof, such that vibrational movement of the inner or outer support annulus (33, 31) causes bending of the elongate flexible members (39).
