ASSEMBLY OF TWO CONCENTRIC PARTS AND A BEARING BETWEEN SAID PARTS

摘要

An assembly of two concentric parts and a bearing between said parts is provided with an inner bearing ring, an outer bearing ring, axial rollers and radial rollers. A first one of said bearing rings is attached to a first one of said concentric parts in a manner for maximally limiting a radial distortion thereof and the second one of said concentric parts is connected to the second one of said bearing rings at an engagement location. The second concentric part has a load support member which at the engagement location is connected to the second bearing ring such that the vertical load introduced into said second bearing ring by said load support member extends through the axial rollers without causing a moment around said axial rollers, wherein the second concentric part further comprises a load transfer member for transferring axial loads therein to said load support member and wherein the second concentric part indirectly or directly engages the second bearing ring at at least one engagement position in such a manner that only radial loads and substantially no axial loads are introduced at said at least one engagement position and wherein said at least one engagement position with respect to the engagement location is located such, that the resultant of radial loads introduced into said second bearing ring at said at least one engagement position and at the engagement location extends through the radial rollers without causing a moment around said radial rollers. A yoke may be provided which at said engagement location is rigidly connected to the second bearing ring and which extends to the at least one engagement position, wherein the second concentric part indirectly engages the second bearing ring through said yoke at said at least one engagement position.
