  2. Many-to-many (data model) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-to-many_(data_model)

    For example, think of A as Authors, and B as Books. An Author can write several Books, and a Book can be written by several Authors. In a relational database management system, such relationships are usually implemented by means of an associative table (also known as join table, junction table or cross-reference table), say, AB with two one-to-many relationships A → AB and B → AB.

  3. Cross-reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-reference

    In programming, "cross-referencing" means the listing of every file name and line number where a given named identifier occurs within the program's source tree. In a relational database management system, a table can have an xref as prefix or suffix to indicate it is a cross-reference table that joins two or more tables together via primary key.

  4. Associative entity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_entity

    An associative (or junction) table maps two or more tables together by referencing the primary keys (PK) of each data table. In effect, it contains a number of foreign keys (FK), each in a many-to-one relationship from the junction table to the individual data tables. The PK of the associative table is typically composed of the FK columns ...

  5. Cross-bolted bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-bolted_bearing

    A cross-bolted bearing is a bearing, usually a crankshaft main bearing of a piston engine, reinforced with additional transverse bolts placed at 90-degrees to the load. Most bearing caps are retained by two bolts, one on each side of the bearing journal, and parallel to the piston travel. A cross-bolted bearing has one or more additional bolts ...

  6. Crosshead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosshead

    A crosshead as part of a reciprocating piston and slider-crank linkage mechanism. Cylindrical trunk guide Hudswell Clarke Nunlow; crosshead and two slide bars. In mechanical engineering, a crosshead [1] is a mechanical joint used as part of the slider-crank linkages of long stroke reciprocating engines (either internal combustion or steam) and reciprocating compressors [2] to eliminate ...

  7. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    Roller bearings are the earliest known type of rolling-element-bearing, dating back to at least 40 BC. Common roller bearings use cylinders of slightly greater length than diameter. Roller bearings typically have a higher radial load capacity than ball bearings, but a lower capacity and higher friction under axial loads.

  8. Pillow block bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillow_block_bearing

    A pillow block bearing (or plummer block) is a mounting used to support a rotating shaft with the use of bearings and various accessories. The assembly consists of a mounting block which houses a bearing. [1] The block is mounted to a foundation, and a shaft is inserted, allowing the inner part of the bearing/shaft to rotate. [1]

  9. Rotary union - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_union

    The second most important part of the rotary union is the bearing. A rotary union may have only one bearing, but multiple bearings are much more common. Roller bearings; such as ball bearings and tapered roller bearings; or non-roller bearings, like graphite bearings and bronze bushings, may be used in a rotary union.
