FLUID FRICTION BEARING OF ROLLING MILL Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC B21B31/02 

FIELD: mechanics.

SUBSTANCE: assemble of fluid friction bearing is bearing of neck of rotating rolling of rolling mill. Bearing mount assembly includes casing, containing friction bearing and axial bearing. Cylindrical locking device interacting to thrust block for holding bearing mount assembly in axial direction on roll neck. Locking device is installed in axial direction and can be by means of rotation introduced and turned out from mechanical interlocking with roll neck. First bearing elements are installed on locking device and project inwards for contact with surface of roll neck on first section, and second bearing elements project inwards from casing for contact with outer surface of locking device at the second section, which is spaced in axial direction from the first section.

EFFECT: proper centering of locking device, avoidance its warp and curvatures.
