Integrally retained bearing race with improved twisting resistance

摘要

An improved method for retaining a separable bearing race to a inner bearing member and also preventing twisting of the separable race on the spindle. The circular corner edge where the cylindrical inner surface of the separable race would otherwise intersect with the annular, axial face of the race is machined off with a chamfer that is eccentric to the co axis of the race and spindle. Then, a deformable lip of the spindle is deformed in and over the face of the race, concurrently filling in the eccentric chamfer. When the race thereafter attempts to turn on the spindle, a wedging action is created by the eccentric chamfer to prevent twisting.
