ABSTRACT:
A wedge-shaped sleeve is inserted between the inner race of a bearing and a shaft to clamp the bearing to the shaft. The sleeve, which is resilient with a longitudinal slit, has a rib thereon to engage a groove in the bearing race to hold the sleeve and bearing in assembled relation when the sleeve is relaxed. An alternative sleeve, which is split to constitute two separate halves, is disclosed. There is also shown a bearing mounted in a bore in which the tapered sleeve is received between the bore and the outer race of the bearing.
