Claim 0:
1. A bearing support, comprising:
an enclosure;
a shaft configured to rotate in response to rotation of a mass mechanically coupled to the shaft;
a first bearing and a second bearing, each comprising:
an inner ring having a first keyway and configured to rotate with the shaft,
an outer ring having a second keyway and configured to rotate with the enclosure, and
a rolling cage configured to enable the inner ring to rotate relative to the outer ring; and

a bearing spacer disposed between and separating the first bearing and the second bearing,
the bearing spacer comprising a first lip on a first side of the bearing spacer creating a first gap separating the first side of the bearing spacer from the first bearing and a second lip on a second side of the bearing spacer creating a second gap separating the second side of the bearing spacer from the second bearing,
the shaft comprising a third keyway such that a first key inserted into the first keyway and the third keyway locks the inner rings of the first and second bearings to the shaft and causes the inner rings to rotate with the shaft,
the first gap and the second gap facilitating cooling of the first and second bearings as the shaft rotates relative to the outer rings of the first and second bearings, and
the enclosure housing the first and second bearings, the bearing spacer, and at least a portion of the shaft.
