Abstract: A bearing assembly with an anti-rotational device configured to prevent turning, unthreading, or loosening of a stationary tapered roller bearing outer race 10 having threaded outer surfaces 10a, 14a used for bearing adjustment, axial shaft retention, and axial thrust load transfer. The bearing assembly includes an annular ring 16 secured to, and extending radially outward from an axial face 18 of the bearing outer race 10. Following rotational adjustment and axial positioning of the bearing, the annular ring 16 is positively engaged by one or more attachment points 14 associated with a stationary housing 12, thereby securing the bearing outer race 10 against further axial and rotational movement.

Abstract: A torque transfer assembly includes first and second torque transfer devices positioned between a first member and a second member. Each of the devices includes a first race selectively engageable with the first member, and a second race coaxial with the first race. The second race of the first device is coupled to the first race of the second device, and the second race of the second device is coupled to the second member. Each of the devices also includes axially-extending pockets defined between the first and second races, rollers positioned in the respective pockets, and an axial gap formed in one of the first and second races. A force applied to the first race of the first device indexes the first race of the first device relative to the second race of the first device to radially expand the first device to frictionally engage the first member.

Abstract: An improved bearing assembly (100) incorporating a bearing sub-assembly (108) having a tapered bearing outer diameter (114) and an associated tapered receiving sleeve (106) for installation within a housing bore (102). The bearing sub-assembly (108) seats within the associated tapered receiving sleeve (106), and a axially directed preload is applied to the bearing sub-assembly (108) by a preload member. As temperature increases during operation, the bearing sub-assembly (108) moves axially relative to the housing (104) within the bore (102) in sliding contact between the inner and outer tapered surfaces (112, 114) to accommodate the lowest energy state condition while the desired preload condition is maintained by the preload member.

Abstract: A coupling arrangement for transferring drive torque between a constant velocity joint (3) and a vehicle drive wheel hub (2). The coupling arrangement includes a retaining clip (15) having a U-shaped cross-section, and a free-state diameter which is less than a diameter of the retaining clip (15) when assembled to retain vehicle drive wheel hub (2) to a constant velocity joint (3). The retaining clip (15) is retained within an open axial bore of the constant velocity joint (3), axially inboard of a set of inward splines (12), which are configured to engage a matching set of outward splines (8) associated with a coupling ring (14) secured to the vehicle drive wheel hub (2). The retaining clip (15) leading edge is configured to engage a retaining groove (G) in the coupling ring (14), thereby coupling the constant velocity joint (3) to the vehicle drive wheel hub (2).

Abstract: To produce a steel liner (10) for a cylinder (112) of an internal combustion engine, a tubular preform (50) of steel is subjected to a flow forming procedure which transforms it into a semi-finished liner (56) having a configuration that corresponds closely to the configuration desired for the cylinder liner. The flow forming process achieves a near-net shape such that only minimal amount of subsequent machining is required to transform the semi-finished liner (56) into the final shape for the cylinder liner (10).

Abstract: A shaft (4) is supported in a housing (2) on the front and rear antifriction bearings (20, 22) that are mounted in opposition. The front bearing (20) has an outer race (72) provided with an external thread (86) that engages an internal thread (68) within the housing (2). That outer race (72) is fitted with a locking ring (90) provided with an inner flange (92) that is engaged to turn the race (72) and thereby bring the front and rear bearings (20, 22) into the correct adjustment. The locking ring (90) also has an axially directed outer flange (94) that is segmented, so that one of the segments (102) can be bent outwardly into a recess (104) in the housing (2), thus providing a tab (106) that prevents rotation of the locking ring (90) and outer race (72).

Abstract: An axial flux electric motor comprising a rotor and a first and second stator. The first and second stators have a first and second air gap located between the first and second stators and the rotor, respectively, and the second air gap is greater than the first gap. In one embodiment, the coils of the first stator and the coils of the second stator are in parallel. The motor further comprises switches which alternatingly energize the coils of the first stator and of the second stator based upon required torque and required speed of the motor. In a second embodiment, the coils of the first stator and the coils of the second stator are in series and the motor further comprises switches which selectively bypass the coils of the second stator in order to reduce the back EMF of the motor and increase the maximum speed of the motor at a given input voltage.

Abstract: A wheel end (A-F) or other assembly for facilitating rotation about an axis includes a tubular housing (2), a spindle (20) that extends into the housing, and a double row antifriction bearing (6, 120) between the housing and spindle. The bearing includes at least one separate inner race (50, 126) that fits over the spindle, with the axial position of that race determining the setting for the bearing. Preferably, a spacer (66, 150, 160) fits around the spindle between the inner race and a backing element (30, 48, 60, 110, 132). The assembly is unitized by deforming the end of the spindle outwardly against the end of the separate inner race with the deformation being sufficient to drive the inner race toward the backing element and collapse the spacer, if present. The deformation of the end of the spindle continues until bearing produces a torque that reflects a desired preload in the bearing.
