BEARING ASSEMBLY OF THE CARDAN SHAFT, THE CARDAN SHAFT AND THE METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A SHAFT Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B60K17/22 B60K17/24 F16C27/06 

FIELD: engine technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to an attachment element for a cardan shaft system containing a front shaft, a shaft consisting of two or more parts, in particular to a bearing assembly with a bearing cushion. The bearing assembly (10) for the cardan shaft system comprises a frame (12) surrounding the hole (16), a flexible vibration isolator (20) located in the hole (16), and a ball bearing (50) mounted in the central hole (24) of the vibration isolator (20). A spherical cup (40) is inserted into the central hole (24) of the vibration isolator (20), made with the possibility of spherical rotation in such a way that in the adjustment position the axis of rotation (x) of the ball bearing (50) changes by the angle of deflection (α) when a rotational force is applied. The annular element (30) has a corresponding curved wall (35), which is in direct contact with the central hole (24) of the vibration isolator (20) from the radial outer part, and the spherical cup (40) is inclined to the radial inner part from the outer periphery (42).

EFFECT: extension of the effective service life of the axially adjustable bearing cushion for the cardan shaft system.
