Abstract
An improved pedal shaft core is characterized in that the contact surfaces of both shaft core and shaft bearing are designed to be oblique and conical to enable the bearing to comprise roller nest bearing and a casing of circular and conical arc so as to enhance the rotational stability of the pedal shaft core. The toothed cup of the shaft core comprises grease filling apparatus of an inclined type located on the external surface of one end thereof. The improved pedal shaft core further comprises of a pair of W-shaped non-return washers of waterproof and oil-proof nature.
Claims3
An improved pedal shaft core comprising:
- a shaft core having a pair of opposed conical contact surfaces which taper inwardly in an axial direction towards two outer ends of the shaft core,
- a conical shaft bearing surrounding each conical contact surface and having slots therein, and rollers positioned in said slots so as to contact their respective contact surfaces,
- a casing having an interior shape surrounding each shaft bearing and contacting the rollers therein, each said casing having an exterior surface which is of circular, conical arcuate shape, viewed in an axial plane,
- a toothed cup having an interior camber located immediately outside of each said casing, an oil and waterproof washer inside said camber for sealing the space between the outer end of each casing and the outer end of the shaft core passing therethrough, and
- a grease filling port located at an axial end of at least one of said toothed cups
- for filling an interior of the shaft core with grease.
