A rotary bearing assembly which comprises a cup-like cylindrical cell member A, a shaft member G having an end adapted to engage with the bottom of the cylindrical cell member to support thrust loads applied from the outside and a groove for receiving a ring F which supports thrust loads applied from the inside, a bearing member B fitted between the shaft member and the cylindrical cell member, a two-piece split sleeve C interposed between the shaft member and the cylindrical cell member, the split sleeve being injection-molded or pressed into a desired shape, a two-piece split sealing element E, and an annular slipping-off-preventive member D which also serves for sealing purposes, there being formed in the interior a lubricating oil reservoir LC and a sealing chamber SC.
A rotary bearing assembly comprising a cylindrical cell member having a bottom and an opposed open end, a shaft member having a groove and an end adapted to engage with the bottom of said cylindrical cell member to support thrusts applied from the outside of said cell member, a ring received in said groove for supporting thrust loads applied from the inside of said cell member, a bearing member fitted between said shaft member and said cylindrical cell member, a two-piece split sleeve positioned within and adjacent to said cylindrical cell member, a two-piece split sealing element positioned between said split sleeve and said shaft member on the side of said bearing member facing the open end of said cell member, and an annular slipping-off prevention and sealing member positioned about said shaft member at the open end of said cell member, and wherein said bearing member divides the interior of said cell member into a lubricating oil reservoir and a sealing chamber
A rotary bearing assembly having an oil slinger and dust seals, said assembly comprising a cylindrical cell, the inner space of said cylindrical cell having one end closed by a bottom plate and the other end open, a bearing member forming a partition wall for dividing the interior of said cell into two chambers, thereby providing an oil reservoir chamber on the closed side for storing lubricating oil and a seal chamber on the open side for preventing oil leakage and dust entry, an arbor having the same center axis as the cell and supporting the bearing member for rotation in the portion of the arbor immersed in the oil in the oil chamber, said arbor having an auxiliary shaft end bearing portion supported at the middle of the inner surface of the bottom plate of the cell such that the end surface of the arbor can be urged against it, a thrust support ring mounted on said arbor to counteract thrusts acting in a direction toward said open end, wherein said auxiliary shaft end bearing portion and said thrust support ring are positioned in the oil chamber, a seal means comprising an uneven, undulating annular form provided on the inner peripheral surface of the cell, a shoulder on the arbor opposed thereto and a seal element mounted on said shoulder and having an uneven, undulating annular form mating with that of said seal means, said seal means, shoulder and seal element being located in said seal chamber, thereby preventing the leakage of lubricating oil from the oil chamber and the entry of fly and dust from the outside.
