CENTER BEARING ASSEMBLY WITH RHEOLOGICAL FLUID FOR DAMPING VIBRATIONS |
摘要 |
An apparatus (10) includes a vehicle drive shaft (12), a roller bearing (16) supporting the drive shaft (12) for rotation, and a housing (18) which contains and supports the roller bearing (16) in a vehicle. The roller bearing (16) includes an inner race (34) rotatable within an outer race (36). The apparatus (10) further includes a damper assembly (20) which damps vibrations radially between the roller bearing (16) and the housing (18). The damper assembly (20) defines a closed chamber (150) containing rheological fluid (152), and has a flow-inducing part (80) projecting into the fluid (152). The flow-inducing part (80) of the damper assembly (20) is movable radially within the fluid (152) in response to radial vibrations of the outer bearing race (36).
