ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a mechanism for adjusting the position of the roller bearings that support large rotating apparatus such as a rotary kiln. The mechanism utilizes a box like base mounted on the kiln foundation. The base has a pair of compartments. In the rear compartment a fluid pressure device actuates a piston to drive a threaded bolt against the base of the roller bearing to adjust its position. A stop nut on the threaded bolt is moved to engage a wall of the base to prevent movement of the bolt away from the bearing and thereby maintain the bearing in its adjusted position.
