Latest Patents
Geiger's latest patents include two notable inventions related to journal bearings. The first patent is for a "Journal bearing having surface-contact retained shoes." This invention prohibits relative movement between an aligning ring and the bearing shoes in the axial direction through the use of surface contact instead of retaining plates. The surface contact can be achieved by flanges extending from the bearing shoes or through the use of dowel pins. Additionally, flanges extending from oil feed bars can also create the necessary surface contact.
The second patent is for a "Journal bearing having self-retaining shoes and method of using the same to support a rotating shaft." This invention utilizes self-retaining bearing shoes that prevent relative movement between an aligning ring and the bearing shoes in the axial direction. The design includes an aligning ring and at least one shoe with a flange extending from its rear surface. This configuration ensures that surface contact between the flange and the aligning ring keeps the shoe securely in place.
