Abstract
A bearing assembly, comprising a bearing configured to support a machine part, an installation space configured to receive at least one electronic module, a mount in the installation space that includes an electric line and the electronic module is attached to the mount, one or more continuous electronic conductor paths, and one or more interrupted conductor path that is parallel to the continuous electronic conduct path.
Claims20
A bearing assembly comprising:
- a bearing configured to support a machine part;
- an installation space configured to receive at least one electronic module;
- a mount extending into the installation space that has an electric line comprising one or more electric conductor paths running in a longitudinal direction of the mount;
- wherein the at least one electronic module is in contact with one or more conductor paths, wherein the electric line comprises at least one continuous electric conductor path and at least one interrupted electric conductor path that has at least one interruption, wherein the interrupted conductor path runs parallel to the continuous conductor path before and after the interruption, and in that at least one electronic module is connected to the interrupted conductor path before the interruption and is connected to the interrupted conductor path after the interruption with a second contact point, wherein the electronic module is configured to receive an input signal using a first contact point, converts this signal to an output signal, and outputs the output signal to the second contact point.
