Rolling mounting for rail vehicles with current passage

摘要

In order to allow current to pass a shaft bearing of a rail vehicle an additional rolling bearing is provided on the shaft and is electrically insulated relative to the shaft bearing. The inner ring of the additional rolling bearing is seated firmly on the shaft. A gap between the exterior of the outer ring of the additional bearing and the housing of the rolling mounting is provided with an insulating bush. The gap on insulating bush is bridged by an electrically insulated connector extending from outside the bearing housing and extending between the bearing housing and the outer ring of the additional rolling bearing.
