A bearing block can be secured to a fixture with quick release spring pins. The bearing block can also be secured to a shaft using a quick release spring pin. This facilitates the removal of the bearing block for repair or for cleaning whereby the bearing block can be removed without the necessity of tools or skilled labor. This thereby saves time in the removal, cleaning and reassembly or replacement of the bearing block and the device can be put back into service with significant time savings. This bearing block can be used in new designs or can be used to retrofit existing bearings and blocks.

1. A bearing block attachable and removable from a shaft having a hole with a spring pin and attachable and removable from a mount surface having spring pins, the bearing block comprising: a mount block having an inner race, an outer race and balls there between, the inner race extending from the mount block in a shoulder, the shoulder having an outer end and two co-linear holes there through near the outer end;the mount block having a surface, the surface having at least two block holes, the block holes each containing a sleeve, the sleeve is shorter than the depth of the block holes;whereby the spring pin is inserted into the shoulder holes and the shaft hole thereby securing the mount block to the shaft and the block holes are inserted over the spring pins on the mount surface securing the bearing block to the mount surface. 2. The sleeve of claim 1 wherein: the bottom end of the sleeve is co-planar with the surface of the mount block. 3. The block holes of claim 1 further including: a block cavity between the top end of the sleeve and a blind end of the block hole. 4. A bearing block assembly for mounting a rotatable shaft to a mount surface, the shaft having a hole, the bearing block assembly comprising: a mount block having an inner race, an outer race and balls there between, the inner race extending from the mount block in a shoulder, the shoulder having an outer end, the shoulder having two co-linear holes there through near the outer end;the mount block having a surface, the surface having at least two block holes, the block holes each containing a sleeve whereby the sleeve is shorter than the block holes and one end of each sleeve is co-planar with the mount surface;at least two spring pins affixed to the mount surface, the spring pins aligned with the block holes of the mount block for affixing said mount block to said spring pins of the mount surface, the spring pins having a vertex;a shaft lock, the shaft lock having a tab on one end and a ball on the opposite end;whereby the shaft lock is inserted into the holes in the shoulder and the hole of the shaft thereby securing the shoulder of the mount block to the shaft. 5. The sleeve of claim 4 wherein: the bottom end of the sleeve is co-planar with the surface of the mount block. 6. The block holes of claim 4 further including: a block cavity between the top end of the sleeve and a terminus blind end of the block hole. 7. The spring pins of claim 4 further including: a ball located near the vertex. 8. A device for securing a rotatable shaft with a hole to a mount surface, the device comprising: a bearing block, the bearing block having a mount block, the mount block housing an inner race, an outer race and balls there between, the inner race having a shoulder, the shoulder having an outer end extending from the mount block, two co-linear holes approximately perpendicular to the shoulder and located near the outer end of the shoulder;the bearing block having a surface, the surface having at least two block holes therein, each block hole housing a cylindrical sleeve, each sleeve having one a bottom end co-planar with the surface and the top end of the sleeve terminating a pre-determined distance from a terminus blind end of the block hole forming a block cavity;the mount surface having spring pins affixed, the spring pins each having a vertex, said spring pins corresponding in number and location to the number of block holes in the bearing block, the spring pins spaced such that one spring pin can be inserted into a corresponding block hole;a shaft lock, the shaft lock having a tab on one end and a ball on the opposite end;whereby the shaft is inserted into the bearing block and the ball of the shaft lock inserted into the shoulder and the shaft hole thereby securing the bearing block to the shaft and the mount surface spring pins are inserted into the bearing block holes thereby securing the bearing block to the mount surface. 9. The mount surface spring pins of claim 8 further including: a ball near the vertex of each spring pin.
