Abstract

A rotating control device wherein the bearing assembly can be secured to the bowl by rotationally coupling the bearing assembly with the bowl. When the bearing assembly is rotated in a first direction about a longitudinal axis relative to the bowl, an interlocking interface is formed between the inner surface of the bowl and the outer surface of the bearing assembly. The interlocking interface can be released by rotating the bearing assembly in a second direction relative to the bowl. The bowl comprises a rotary guide for engaging and rotating the bearing assembly. The rotary guide and the bearing assembly have an alignment profile for facilitating alignment of the bearing assembly with the bowl. The bearing assembly has a sealing element with axially extending fingers to provide internal structural support for the seal.
