ABSTRACT:
Bearing assemblies use serial bearings in order to extend the operational speeds for the bearings. Speed distribution planetary gears are mounted upon an intermediate ring disposed between two other rings. Each of the rings has bearing surfaces which are separated from adjacent bearing surfaces by ball-bearings or other bearings. The planetary gears mesh with gear teeth upon the first and second rings so as to cause rotation of the intermediate ring at a speed intermediate the relative speed between the two other rings. The speed distribution planetary gears may be used in a serial thrust bearing assembly serial radial bearing assembly, or a serial radial thrust bearing assembly.
