Abstract:
A bushing has a body with a cylindrical shape, an axis, and a plurality of dimples formed in the body extending in a radial direction with respect to the axis. The body is electrically conductive. A sliding layer that is electrically non-conductive is formed on at least a portion of the body. A coating that is electrically non-conductive is formed on at least a portion of the body. The bushing has an uninstalled configuration where the bushing is electrically non-conductive, and an installed configuration where the bushing is electrically conductive.
Abstract:
A cup bearing includes a cylindrical component having first and second axial ends and defining a lumen therethrough. The cylindrical component includes first and second end portions proximal to the first and second axial ends, respectively. The cylindrical component includes a corrugated portion disposed axially between the first and second end portions. The corrugated portion includes a plurality of corrugations extending radially inwardly. A corrugation of the plurality of corrugations includes a ridge defining a first inner radius of the lumen. The cup bearing further includes a first radial stop associated with the first end portion. The first radial stop defines a second inner radius greater than the first inner radius. The cup bearing also includes an end cap coupled to the second axial end of the cylindrical component.

Abstract:
A bearing includes a first member having a passageway configured to engage a shaft, the first member having a metallic material; and a second member disposed around at least a portion of the first member, the second member having a metallic material and at least one radially and inwardly bent portion capable of restricting axial movement of the first member. The first and second members are movable relative to each other.

Abstract:
A torque limiting assembly is disclosed and can include a generally cylindrical bearing and a tolerance ring disposed around the generally cylindrical bearing. The torque limiting assembly is configured to be installed between and rotatably couple an inner and an outer component. The torque limiting assembly is configured to rotate with respect to at least one of the inner and outer components when a threshold torque, T, is exceeded.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a bearing includes a substrate having a first portion and a second portion thicker than the first portion, the second portion having a curved outer contour. The bearing can further include a first layer on the outer contour of the substrate and/or a second layer on an inner contour of the substrate. The first layer can include a thermally conductive material, and the second layer can include a lubricious material.
Abstract:
A bearing device is disclosed and can include a bushing. The bushing can include a hollow body that can have an internal diameter, IDHB, and proximal ends and distal ends opposite each other. The bushing can also include a first bushing flange extending radially outwardly from the proximal end of the body and an axial extension extending from the distal end of the hollow body. The axial extension is deformable so as to form a second bushing flange extending radially outwardly from the distal and of the hollow body. The axial extension can have an internal diameter, IDAE, ≦IDHB.
