Abstract: The present invention is directed to a retention element for retaining first and second components in assembled relationship. The first component comprises a body having first and second external surfaces and an inner wall defining an aperture extending through the body, and the second component comprises a longitudinal member having a size and configuration to permit insertion within said aperture to thereby assemble the components. The retention element comprises: an elastromeric protuberance extending into the aperture from a base adhering to the inner wall to a distal edge which spans a portion of the aperture. The protuberance also has an inside wall and an outside wall which meet at the distal edge and together define a flexible free end. Upon insertion of the second component into the aperture of the first component, the free end of the protuberance flexes in the direction of insertion such that the force required to assemble the two components is less than the force required to disassemble the two components.

Abstract: A tolerance ring has a band (16) with outwardly extending corrugated protrusions forming waves (2) which engage a surface (8) of the bore (4) in a housing (5). At one end of the tolerance ring is an outwardly flared guide surface (15) extending axially from the band (16). The guide surface (15) acts as an enlarged entrance to the band (16) for a shaft (3) to be mounted in the bore (4) by insertion into the tolerance ring. The use of the guide surface (15) assists assembly and reduces or eliminates particle production. It is also possible for the corrugated portions to extend inwardly, for the guide surface to be inwardly flared, and for the tolerance ring to be mounted on the shaft prior to insertion in the bore.

Abstract: An electric motor includes a stator, a housing supporting the stator and having a bearing seat with an inner surface and an inner end, a bearing having an outer surface, a shaft rotatably supported by the bearing, and a rotor supported by the shaft. The motor also includes a tolerance ring having an interior surface, an exterior surface disposed against the bearing seat inner surface, and a plurality of elastic corrugations. Each of the elastic corrugations projects radially from the interior surface, defining a shoulder section disposed between the bearing and the inner end of the bearing seat. The shoulder section generates a spring force against the bearing to axially and radially support the bearing and to axially preload the bearing.

Abstract: Two structural components having a rotational symmetry relative to a central longitudinal axis, are releasably connected to each other by a clamping mechanism which engages two interface rings secured to the respective structural component. The clamping mechanism is formed by tensioning elements (5) held together by at least one, preferably two straps (1, 2). A lock (15) with two hinged tensioning levers holds the strap or straps releasably together. For this purpose each strap end is journalled by a journal bolt to the tensioning lever (18, 19). Locking elements (25, 26, 28, 30) hold the tensioning lever (18, 19) in a locked position in the lock. An electromagnetic drive or the like unlocks the tension levers for releasing the tensioning strap or straps, whereby the opening motion of the tensioning levers is retarded or delayed by one or more springs in a controlled manner to avoid or at least optimally reduce the triggering of harmful vibrations and the introduction of undesirable loads in the components being released.
