摘要:
Construction of a roller thrust bearing is achieved wherein it is possible to keep a thrust race from coming apart from a cage without wear or cracking occurring in a cage element and without impact occurring between the thrust race and cage even when used in an application wherein a rotating section rotates at high speed, or when used in an application wherein relative displacement between members of a rotating section is large. The thickness of metal plate of a first cage element 35 is preferably 5/6 the thickness of metal plate of a second cage element 36 or less. Alternatively, the thickness of metal plate of a second cage element 56 is preferably 5/6 the thickness of metal plate of a first cage element 55 or less.

At a plurality of locations along a circumferential direction on a cylindrical portion 77c, cutout portions 90 are formed such that each of the cutout portions is recessed in an axial direction from a distal edge of the cylindrical portion 77c toward a race portion 76a. A protrusion is provided at a portion closer to the race portion 76a from a bottom edge of each of the cutout portions 90 such that the protrusion protrudes in a radial direction from the cylindrical portion 77b toward a side away from the race portion 76a. The protrusion serves as a race-retaining locking portion 91 to prevent a race 74a from moving out from a mating member on which the race 74a is mounted. In this way, there is provided a structure by which durability can be ensured even when rigidity of a portion backing up the race 74c is low, and manufacturing cost can be reduced.
