Radial covers consist of a cylindrical curved surface plate and radial support arms that connect the surface to the bearings and transfer the hydrostatic load to the fixed bearings.
Radial covers consist of a cylindrical curved surface plate and radial support arms that connect the surface to the bearings and transfer the hydrostatic load to the fixed bearings.
Radial covers often move around a horizontal axis coinciding with the center of the inclined surface plate.
Thanks to this placement, the hydrostatic forces acting on the surface are transmitted directly to the axis of rotation without any opening or closing effect on the cover.
