Abstract
A bearing chocking assembly for mill rolls includes an axially immovable segmented inner ring engageable with a formation such as a shoulder in an annular groove formed on a mill roll neck, and an axially movable outer ring engageable with a bearing retainer for axially positioning the bearing retainer to 'chock' or axially position bearings which journal the roll neck. Cooperating wedge-shaped cam surfaces on the inner and outer rings effect axial movement of the outer ring when the outer ring is rotated relative to the inner ring. The inner ring is keyed to the roll neck to prevent relative rotation therebetween. The outer ring is bolted to the inner ring once it has been positioned to properly chock the roll bearings.
