ABSTRACT:
A large chamfer on the outer race mates with a matching angled step in the housing bore and eliminates the need for the press fit while still meeting the application requirements. Alternative designs reduce the rotational effort and torque variation of the system and facilitate assembly. The mating tapers give the bearings freedom to self-align and thereby avoid common "clicking" noise.
