  2. Bearing (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(navigation)

    A grid bearing (also known as grid azimuth) is measured in relation to the fixed horizontal reference plane of grid north, that is, using the direction northwards along the grid lines of the map projection as a reference point. A compass bearing, as in vehicle or marine navigation, is measured in relation to the magnetic compass of the ...

  3. Navigational instrument - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navigational_instrument

    Cross staff, an older instrument long out of use. Kamal Very simple instrument used primarily by Arabian navigators. It consists of a small board with a knotted piece of twine through the center. The observer holds one of the knots in his mouth and extends the board away so that the edges make a constant angle with his eyes.

  4. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    Although bearings tend to wear out with use, designers can make tradeoffs of bearing size and cost versus lifetime. A bearing can last indefinitely—longer than the rest of the machine—if it is kept cool, clean, lubricated, is run within the rated load, and if the bearing materials are sufficiently free of microscopic defects.

  5. Bearing compass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_compass

    A bearing compass, is a nautical instrument used to determine the bearing of observed objects. (Bearing: angle formed by the north and the visual to a certain object in the sea or ashore). Used in navigation to determine the angle between the direction of an object and the magnetic north or, indirectly relative to another reference point.

  6. Ball bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_bearing

    Working principle for a ball bearing; red dots show direction of rotation. A four-point angular-contact ball bearing. A ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to maintain the separation between the bearing races. The purpose of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction and support radial and axial loads. It ...

  7. Bearing surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_surface

    A bearing surface in mechanical engineering is the area of contact between two objects. It usually is used in reference to bolted joints and bearings, but can be applied to a wide variety of engineering applications. The choice of bearing surface depends on the application, load, speed, and operating conditions, and the design must be able to ...
