Abstract:
A bearing arrangement for a fluid machinery application employing an axially locating bearing. The axially locating bearing includes: a first angular self-aligning contact bearing arranged next to a second angular self-aligning contact bearing. Each of the first angular self-aligning contact bearing and the second angular self-aligning contact bearing includes a set of rolling elements arranged in a row and interposed between a respective curved inner raceway and an associated curved outer raceway. Each roller is a symmetrical cylindrically-shaped roller having a curved raceway-contacting surface. Each roller is inclined respective to the axial direction of the shaft by a respective contact angle. The rollers support an axial force and a radial force. The axially non-locating bearing position is arranged spaced apart from the axially locating bearing position, as seen in the axial direction. Examples of fluid machinery applications include: a wind turbine, water turbine or a propulsion turbine.

Claim (Index 2):
The bearing arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the axially non-locating bearing position includes a third set of rolling elements arranged in a third row and interposed between a third curved inner raceway of the third inner ring and the third curved outer raceway of a third outer ring, wherein each of the third set of rolling elements is a symmetrical cylindrically shaped roller having a third curved raceway-contacting surface being engageable with the third curved inner raceway and the third curved outer raceway, whereby the rollers are arranged to cooperate with the third curved inner raceway and the third curved outer raceway for supporting the radial force.
