High-capacity light-weight ball bearing for airborne vibration suppression

摘要

A bearing for a hub-mounted vibration suppression system includes an outer ring defining a first outer race and a second outer race. A first inner ring and a second inner ring are disposed in the outer ring. A plurality of rolling elements is disposed between the first inner race and the first outer race. A slug separator separates each adjacent pair of the plurality of the rolling elements. Another plurality of rolling elements is disposed between the second inner race and the second outer race. Another slug separator separates each adjacent pair of the other rolling elements. Each of the plurality rolling elements have first centers that are spaced apart from one another by no more than 15 degrees and/or each of the plurality other rolling elements have second centers that are spaced apart from one another by no more than 15 degrees.
