Abstract: An axially compact and highly integrated bevel pinion and bearing assembly (A1, A2) wherein a pinion gear (10) is integrated with a first support bearing (B1), and the pinion shaft (12) is integrated with a second support bearing (B2) axially displaced from the first support bearing (B1). With the first support bearing (B1) arranged axially under the pinion gear teeth (11), loads from the pinion gear (10) are transferred primarily through the first support bearing (B1). As a result, the second support bearing (B2) can be reduced in size and brought axially closer to the first support bearing (B1) to reduce the axial length of the pinion and bearing assembly. The integration of the pinion gear (10) with the first and second support bearings (B1, B2) optimizes material utilization and reduces overall weight of the pinion and bearing assembly, leading to a power density improvement.

Abstract translation: 一种轴向紧凑且高度集成的锥齿轮和轴承组件（A1，A2），其中小齿轮（10）与第一支撑轴承（B1）成一体，小齿轮轴（12）与第二支撑轴承（B2 ）从第一支撑轴承（B1）轴向移位。 由于第一支撑轴承（B1）轴向地布置在小齿轮齿（11）的下方，所以小齿轮（10）的载荷主要通过第一支承轴承（B1）传递。 结果，第二支撑轴承（B2）的尺寸可以减小并且轴向更靠近第一支撑轴承（B1），以减小小齿轮和轴承组件的轴向长度。 小齿轮（10）与第一和第二支撑轴承（B1，B2）的集成优化了材料利用率，并减小了小齿轮和轴承组件的总体重量，从而提高了功率密度。

Abstract: A method for manufacturing large diameter tapered roller bearing cages (10B). A straight metal strip, coil or plate of cage blank material (10), precisely dimensioned in width, length and thickness, with or without windows or pockets pre-cut, is fed into a rolling mill (100). The rolling mill incorporates a pair of unparallel forming rolls (102A, 102B) disposed such that the gap (G) there between forms a wedge shape. As the cage blank material (10) is fed through the wedge-shaped forming roll gap (G), one lateral side of the cage blank material is plastically deformed to reduce its thickness (T) and to elongate its length, while no deformation or only a very slight deformation is introduced to the other lateral side of the cage blank, thus forming the cage blank into an arc shape. A third roll (104) disposed in exit side of the forming rolls (102), in a pre-calculated position, bends the rolled cage blank into a circular conical ring (10A). After the entire cage blank is rolled into the conical ring configuration, the conical ring may pass through the rolling mill (100) again for a final resizing. Adjacent butt ends (12A, 12B) of the formed conical ring cage blank (10A) are aligned and joined together during the assembly process to form the large diameter tapered roller bearing cage (10B).

Abstract: A light weight bearing cage assembly (100) consisting of a plurality of snap-on bridge elements (104) coupled between first and second cage support rings (102A, 102B) conforming to the surfaces of adjacent rolling elements (10). The snap-on bridge elements maintain rolling element (10) in separation, provide rolling element retention within the bearing assembly, and function as a lubrication reservoir between the rolling elements for grease lubricated bearings. Each snap-on bridge element may be individually removed and replaced by snap-on engagement with the first and second cage support rings. Optional locking clips or rings (300, 302) fitted over each snap fitting end of the bridge elements optionally provides additional security against accidental uncoupling of the bridge elements from the first and second cage rings.

Abstract: An epicyclic gear system (A) includes a sun gear (2), a ring gear (4) located around the sun gear (2) and planet pinions (6) located between the sun and ring gears (2,4). The planet pinions (6) rotate on a carrier (8) that includes flexpins (20) that are cantilevered from a wall (12) of the carrier (8) and sleeves (22) that are attached to the remote ends of the flexpins (20) and extend back over the flexpins (20) to create a double cantilever. Bearings (24) support the planet pinions (6) on the sleeves (22) so that the planet pinions (6) rotate about the flexpins (20). The double cantilever enables the flexpins (2) to flex such that the axes (Y) of the planet pinions (6) remain parallel to the common axis (X) of the sun and ring gears (2, 4). Each sleeve (22) has an integrated bearing race (44) and a bearing seat (42) that carries a separate bearing race (60). The sleeve (22) is easily detached from its flexpin (20) and the separate race (60) is easily removed from the sleeve (22) to disassemble the bearing (24) and remove the planet pinion (6).
