DEFINITION
Classification: 384/447
Elliptical eccentric, alternating roller, or mass ball features; compensating for nonthermal deformation; centrifugal preload:
(under subclass 445) Subject matter wherein the bearing or bearing support structure includes (a) elliptical features or (b) features wherein two axes are offset or (c) where rollers alternate their orientations; or (d) where the bearing comprises a loose mass of balls; or (e) where means are provided for compensating for nonthermal deformation, e.g.; deformation due to weight or other force of (f) including centrifugal preloading means.
