ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a novel mounting structure for a rotatable heat exchanger, sometimes known as a heat recovery wheel. The mounting structure includes a hub portion on at least one side of the wheel and axially aligned therewith with at least three radially movable shoes situated within the bore of the wheel and coupled to the hub portion. A torsion bar is connected to the hub which applies equal radial forces to each of the shoes whereby the shoes are biased against the wheel at the periphery of the bore and equally displaced from the axis of the wheel. The aforementioned arrangement provides a mounting which is self centering and yet which permits differential radial expansion of a metal hub with respect to a ceramic wheel.
