APPARATUS COMPRISING A HOUSING AND A SHAFT MOUNTED IN THE HOUSING FOR AXIAL ADJUSTMENT

摘要

Mechanism for axially shifting an anti-friction bearing mounted in a bore of a housing extension or the like. The mechanism comprises an annular member such as the outer ring of the bearing mounted in the bore which has at least one radially outwardly directed protrusion engaging through an axial slit in the housing extension. The extension has external screw threads adjacent the axial slits to receive locking nuts on either side of the protrusion to fix the annular member in a selected position relative to the extension.
