Abstract:
In a rolling bearing including an oil supply unit for supplying lubricating oil stored in a tank by a pump via a nozzle which is made to open in an annular space defined between an inner ring and an outer ring, the nozzle is made to open in a space between an inner circumferential surface of a case and the inner ring, and the inner circumferential surface of the cage is formed into a surface in which an inside diameter of the cage is reduced gradually in a continuous or intermittent fashion from an axial center portion towards at least an end portion lying on a side where the nozzle is inserted, whereby a lubricating oil dropped on to the inner circumferential surface of the cage is caused to flow towards the axial center portion by virtue of centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the cage, so as to prevent the lubricating oil from flowing out to the outside of the bearing unit.
Abstract:
By incorporating a pump for sucking and discharging lubricating oil in a tank for storing the lubricating oil on an outside of a rolling bearing, for example, on a spacer for an outer ring in a housing for accommodating the rolling bearing and a nozzle in which an lubricating oil outlet communicating with a discharging port of the pump to supply the lubricating oil discharged from the pump to the rolling bearing is opened in an annular-shaped space between a fixed ring and a rolling ring in the rolling bearing, a cost is reduced by using a general-purpose rolling bearing, and at the same time, external devices and pipes for a lubrication are not required wholly or partially and problems of a noise made by compressed air are eliminated.
Abstract:
A rolling bearing composed of a combination of bearing wings formed with a steel material and rolling elements formed with a ceramic material, wherein the residual austenite amount of the steel material forming the rolling rings is controlled to a specific value. By the construction, at rolling of the rolling elements formed with a relatively hard ceramic material, the occurrence of the surface scratches of the rolling elements can be restrained, which results in restraining the vibrations and noises caused from the rolling bearing.

Abstract:
A bearing retainer of a synthetic resin, which can be injection molded out of a material obtained by mixing at least particles of a heat resisting reins with a thermoplastic resin, and which can thereby be manufactured at a low cost without compromise in suitability for high-rotational-speed and high-temperature applications.
Abstract:
A one-way clutch includes an outer race, wherein a plurality of windows are formed in one plate-like member, is placed so as to be relatively rotatable with respect to an inner race wherein two plate-like members overlay each other and a ball raceway surface is formed by curved portions formed in outer peripheries of the plate-like members. Balls are accommodated in the windows. The face of each of the windows on the side of the outer periphery of the outer race is formed as a cam surface wherein the distance with respect to the ball raceway surface is reduced in a circumferential direction. Urging means for urging the balls in the direction is disposed. The maximum width of the one-way clutch is equal to the ball diameter and the thicknesses of the two plate-like members constituting the inner race, so that a one-way clutch of a reduced width is obtained.
Abstract:
It is an object of the invention to provide a one-way clutch in which the width can be reduced as compared with one-way clutches including a conventional roller clutch, and positioning with respect to a shaft and assembling works can be simplified. In order to attain the object, in the one-way clutch of the invention, an outer race in which a plurality of windows are formed in one plate-like member is placed so as to be relatively rotatable with respect to an inner race in which two plate-like members overlay each other and a ball raceway surface is formed by curved portions formed in outer peripheries of the plate-like members. Balls are accommodated in the windows, respectively. The face of each of the windows on the side of the outer periphery of the outer race is formed as a cam surface in which the distance with respect to the ball raceway surface is reduced in a constant direction along the circumferential direction. Urging means for urging the balls in the direction is disposed. According to the configuration, the maximum width of the one-way clutch is equal to a total of the ball diameter and the thicknesses of the two plate-like members constituting the inner race, with the result that a one-way clutch of a reduced width can be obtained.
