<p>#CMT# #/CMT# The bearing holder (1), e.g. moulded in one piece from a metal alloy or synthetic material, comprises an inner component (3) to receive the bearing and an outer component (2) for fixing the holder to a mechanical assembly, with the two components linked by deformable connectors (22). It differs in that the load on the bearing is detected directly by the movement of the of the two components relative to the other and measured by detector portions (13, 20) fixed to the inner and outer components and located close to an axial plane of symmetry perpendicular to the direction of the measured load. The detectors incorporate one or more capacitive or inductive sensors. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Measuring the load placed on a bearing e.g. in a washing machine. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The bearing holder is economical to manufacture and can be used with conventional bearings, optionally incorporating speed and/or temperature sensors, being easy to assemble and reliable in operation. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a perspective view of the bearing holder. 1 : Bearing holder 2 : Outer component 3 : Inner component 13, 20 : Detector portions 22 : Deformable connectors.</p> |
