    摘要: In a tapered roller bearing, a cage includes a plurality of trapezoidal pockets and the pockets accommodate and hold a plurality of rollers. A notch having a width is provided in a post on a smaller width side of the pocket of the cage from a boundary between a smaller annular portion and a post toward a larger annular portion. Lubricating oil which flows from an inner diameter side of the cage toward an inner ring is quickly discharged through the notch toward an outer ring on an outer diameter side. A distance from an outermost surface of at least any one of the outer ring and the inner ring of the roller and a plurality of rollers to a bottom of a nitrogen enriched layer is equal to or longer than 0.2 mm. A rolling surface of the roller is provided with a logarithmic crowning profile.

    摘要: Two projecting portions (45a and 45b) configured to guide a tapered roller (3) on distal end surfaces thereof are formed on a side surface (43a) of a pillar portion (43) of a retainer (4) so as to be separated apart from each other in a roller axis direction. The projecting portions (45a and 45b) are separated apart from each other in the roller axis direction with respect to both a small-diameter-side annular portion (41) and a large-diameter-side annular portion (42). The projecting portions (45a and 45b) each have a force-fit margin (F).

    摘要: A tapered roller bearing includes inner and outer rings having tapered raceway surfaces. The inner ring also includes large-collar and small-collar surfaces respectively on large-diameter and small-diameter sides of its raceway surface. A plurality of tapered rollers are arrayed between the raceway surfaces. Each of the tapered rollers has a large end surface that contacts and is guided by the large-collar surface. A set curvature radius (R) of the large end surface of each of the tapered rollers and a base curvature radius (RBASE) from a vertex of a cone angle of each of the tapered rollers to the large-collar surface has a ratio R/RBASE in a range of 0.75 to 0.87, and when RACTUAL represents an actual curvature radius of the large end surface, a ratio RACTUAL/R is equal to or larger than 0.5.

    摘要: The present invention provides a bearing device for vehicle wheel reducing the occurrence of abnormal heat generation caused by metal contact and enhancing anti-seizing properties. Each of the tapered rollers 4 has a large diameter-side end surface 41, the inner raceway surface 31, and the large flange part 32. The large flange part 32 includes a chamfered part 32c and a rounded part 32d. The large flange part 32 has a large flange part-side cutout part 34, the large diameter-side end surface 41 of each of the tapered rollers 32 has a tapered roller-side cutout part 43 having a circular shape formed coaxially with the large diameter-side end surface 41, and a clearance of the large diameter-side end surface 41 as viewed from a contact point between the large diameter-side end surface 41 and the guide surface 32a is greater than or equal to 15 μm.

    摘要: A tapered roller bearing for an automobile includes an inner ring including a raceway surface having a tapered shape on an outer periphery, an outer ring including a raceway surface having a tapered shape on an inner periphery, a plurality of tapered rollers incorporated into a space defined between the raceway surfaces, and a retainer configured to receive the tapered rollers. The inner and outer rings are each made of carburized steel, and the raceway surfaces of the inner and outer rings each have a straight generating line shape. The tapered rollers each are made of high carbon chromium bearing steel, and each have a rolling surface including a straight portion, which is formed at a center portion in an axial direction, and crowning portions, which extend from the straight portion to both end portions. The crowning portions are each formed of logarithmic crowning.

    摘要: A difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of arithmetic mean roughness Ra of an annular surface region in contact with a larger flange surface, in a larger end face of the tapered roller, is not greater than 0.02 μm. A value of a ratio R/RBASE is not smaller than 0.75 and not greater than 0.87 where R represents a set radius of curvature of the larger end face of the tapered roller and RBASE represents a distance from a point which is an apex of a cone angle of the tapered roller to the larger flange surface of the inner ring. A ratio Rprocess/R is not lower than 0.5 where Rprocess represents an actual radius of curvature after grinding of the larger end face of the tapered roller and R represents a set radius of curvature.
