2. Roller coaster wheel assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_coaster_wheel_assembly

   They often consist of at least 3 wheels per assembly, but can contain more. The typical arrangement of the wheels are: Running wheels (also known as road wheels or tractor wheels): positioned on the top of the rail, bearing the weight of the train. Side friction wheels: positioned on a horizontal plane, either inside or outside of the rails ...

3. Spherical roller thrust bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Spherical_roller_thrust_bearing

   A spherical roller thrust bearing. A spherical roller thrust bearing is a rolling-element bearing of thrust type that permits rotation with low friction, and permits angular misalignment. The bearing is designed to take radial loads, and heavy axial loads in one direction. Typically these bearings support a rotating shaft in the bore of the ...

4. ABEC scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABEC_scale

   The ABEC scale is designed to provide bearing manufacturers dimensional specifications that meet the standards of precision bearings in a specified class. The scale is also used by manufacturers who produce equipment that require bearings must also know the dimensional tolerances to design parts that will accommodate a bearing.

5. Thrust bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_bearing

   Thrust ball bearings, composed of bearing balls supported in a ring, can be used in low-thrust applications where there is little axial load. Cylindrical roller thrust bearings consist of small cylindrical rollers arranged flat with their axes pointing to the axis of the bearing. They give very good carrying capacity and are cheap, but tend to ...

6. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

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

   A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

7. Tapered roller bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_roller_bearing

   Tapered roller bearings were a breakthrough at the end of the 19th century because bearings used in wheel axles had not changed much since ancient times. They consisted of a cylindrical seat on the frame and part of the axle enclosed in a case or box that held a lubricant.
