A single slot extends axially partway into the inner bearing surface and has a slot arc section area extending axially inward. The slot arc section area has a first circumferential slot-end, a second circumferential slot-end, and a slot arc length measured between the first circumferential slot-end and the second circumferential slot-end. A ratio of the slot arc length to the circumference of the interior area is about 0.20 to 0.35. The truncated ball has a convex exterior surface. The truncated ball is positioned in the slot and rotated so that the truncated ball is rotatably retained by the inner bearing surface. The truncated ball is angularly misalignable relative to the annular housing.

Abstract

A piston assembly including a shaft having a piston arrangement. The piston arrangement has a retract-area on one side and a extend-area on the opposite side. The retract-area is larger than the extend-area so that when fluid exerts a force on the retract-area the piston arrangement generates and applies a retract force to the shaft. Upon release of the fluid pressure to the retract-area and application of the fluid pressure to the extend-area the piston arrangement generates and applies an extend force to the shaft. The retract force is greater than or equal to the extend force.

Abstract

A bearing for a hinge in a hinged raked aircraft wing tip includes an outer member that has a concave inner surface and an inner member that has first and second inner segments. Each of the first and second inner segments has a base that has a bearing section extending therefrom. The bearing sections together form a convex outer surface that is complementary in shape to the concave inner surface. A preload feature is positioned between and engages a portion of the bearing sections. A lubricous liner is positioned between the concave inner surface and the convex outer surface. The bearing sections are positioned in the outer member to compress the preload feature to limit axial movement between the outer and inner members to a predetermined magnitude. The preload feature flexes outward as a result of wear to the liner to maintain the axial movement to the predetermined magnitude.

Abstract

A spheroidal joint for a tuned mass damper system includes a base having a concave seat and a lubricious liner secured thereto. The base defines a first mounting portion under the concave seat and a circumferential rim opposite the first mounting portion. The concave seat tapers radially outward to define a chamfer which terminates at a radially inner edge of the rim. The spheroidal joint includes an inner member that has a convex seat. The inner member has a second mounting portion extending from the convex seat and an indentation circumferentially extending around the inner member between the convex seat and the second mounting portion. The indentation cooperates with the chamfer for misalignment of the inner member relative to the base. The convex seat slidingly engages the lubricious liner.
