Abstract
A bearing seat provided in or on a cylindrical surface of a component to which the bearing is to be mounted is constructed so that the component at which the bearing seat is provided is softer at least in the surface region than the ring(s) of the bearing that is to be interconnected to the component via the bearing seat. In addition, either one of the bearing seat and the bearing ring in their surfaces facing each other has a number of surface irregularities arranged ring to cause deformation to the softer surface region under a mutual axial mounting motion between the bearing seat and the bearing ring to thereby form a mutual grip between the seat and the bearing ring.
Claims18
A component comprising a surface provided with a bearing seat, and a bearing adapted to be mounted at the bearing seat, the bearing having at least one bearing ring, with the at least one bearing ring and the bearing seat having facing surfaces adapted to face one another when the bearing is mounted at the bearing seat, at least a surface region of the bearing seat of the component being softer than the at least one bearing ring of the bearing, and one of the facing surfaces of the seat and the bearing ring having a plurality of spaced apart raised regions so that deformation to the softer surface region occurs during mounting of the bearing at the bearing seat to produce a mutual grip between the seat and the at least one bearing ring.
A bearing seat provided in or on a cylindrical surface of a component to which a bearing is to be mounted, the component at which the bearing seat is provided being softer at least in a surface region than a ring of the bearing that is to be interconnected with the component via the seat, either one of the bearing seat and the ring of the bearing in surfaces facing each other having a number of surface irregularities arranged to cause a deformation to the softer surface region under a mutual axial mounting motion between the bearing seat and the bearing ring to thereby form a mutual grip between the bearing seat and the ring of the bearing.
