ABSTRACT:
A ring assembly for retaining a roller bearing and shaft. A split ring fits in a groove in the shaft and is surrounded by a lock ring to secure it in the groove. The split ring has a beveled surface which the lock ring acts against to force the split ring into the groove as the lock ring is pressed onto the split ring. An inclined surface on the split ring interacts with a ramp surface bounding the groove to press the split ring against the bearing as it moves into the groove. This applies a preload thrust to the bearing.
