ABSTRACT:
A bearing take-up apparatus is adapted to utilize a bearing assembly having a conventional flange bearing housing. The apparatus includes a bearing carrier mounted for slidable movement between a pair of parallel guide rails. The bearing carrier may be formed of a unitary piece of sheet metal according to known metal forming techniques. The bearing assembly is mounted to the bearing carrier to support a rotatable shaft. The bearing carrier is moved to a desired position along the guide rails utilizing an elongated transmission screw or the like. The arrangement facilitates replacement of the bearing assembly in the field.
