Abstract
A bearing seat suitable for receiving a bearing includes an annular body, a first outer-radial flange and a second outer-radial flange. The annular body includes a peripheral wall. The peripheral wall has a first end, a second end, an inner matching surface and an outer surface. A thickness difference between the maximum thickness and the minimum thickness of the peripheral wall is within 30%. A portion of the inner matching surface is suitable for contacting and matching with an outer matching surface of the bearing. The first outer-radial flange protrudes from the outer surface adjacent to the first end and extends to the first end. The second outer-radial flange protrudes from the outer surface adjacent to the second end and extends to the second end. The overall structure of the bearing seat is uniform, which can reduce warpage and deformation caused by uneven shrinkage during the injection process.
