Abstract

Abstract An anti-friction bearing unit, particularly for use in an exhaust gas turbo charger. The unit includes two anti-friction bearings axially spaced apart from each other on a shaft. High temperature occurs on one end of the shaft. A precise mounting is provided which is not sensitive to high temperatures on at least the axial side exposed to high temperature. The bearing outer ring, which is the ring not subject to high temperatures, consists of one piece. The bearing inner ring is widened and divided into two sections at its axial middle. The axial portion of the divided inner ring which is exposed to high temperature consists of material of high heat resistance. The high heat resistance material is, for example, 80 MoCrV 42 16 (M 50) or X 102 CRMo 17 (AISI 440 C). An additional intermediate ring around the shaft at the high temperature and helps reduce heat transmission.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
An anti-friction bearing means for use in a heated environment comprising: a shaft; first and second anti-friction bearings axially spaced apart from each other along the shaft; the shaft being arranged so that high temperatures occur toward one axial end of the shaft; the anti-friction bearings having an outer ring, of a single piece extending around the first and second bearings; the bearing means having an inner ring comprised of first and second axially neighboring sections, the first inner ring section being toward the high temperature end of the shaft and the first inner ring section being comprised of material of high heat resistance than the second section of the inner ring.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
An anti-friction bearing means for use in a heated environment comprising: a shaft; first and second anti-friction bearings axially spaced apart from each other along the shaft; the shaft being arranged so that high temperatures occur toward one axial end of the shaft; the anti-friction bearings having an outer ring, of a single piece extending around the first and second bearings; the bearing means having an inner ring comprised of first and second axially neighboring sections, the first inner ring section being toward the high temperature end of the shaft and the first inner ring section being comprised of material of high heat resistance than the second section of the inner ring.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 53 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1, wherein the section of higher heat resistant material includes an axial region whose inner diameter corresponds to the outer diameter of the shaft and also includes an axial slot between the inner ring section and the shaft at the end of the shaft that is heated.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 2, wherein the first bearing is located at the first section of the inner ring, and the second bearing is located at the second section of the inner ring.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 3, wherein the first bearing is around the first section of the inner ring axially at the slot.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 2 which is to be used for a gas turbo charger and the shaft being part of the turbo charger.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1 further comprising an intermediate ring at the axial side of the inner ring at the end of the shaft that is heated, the intermediate ring being in heat conductive contact with the inner ring to increase the resistance to heat transmission.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1 in which the heat resistant material is 80 MoCrV 42 16 (M 50).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1 in which the heat resistant material is X 102 CRMo 17 (AISI 440 C).
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1, wherein the inner ring sections are separate sections.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 35 words
The anti-friction bearing means of claim 1, wherein the first bearing is located at the first section of the inner ring, and the second bearing is located at the second section of the inner ring.
