A bearing assembly having cylindrical rolling elements, an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of cylindrical rolling elements arranged radially between the internal raceway and external raceway. The inner ring includes an annular shoulder that protrudes with respect to the internal raceway, a fillet in the form of a circular arc being defined between the annular shoulder and internal raceway. The outer ring has an annular shoulder that protrudes with respect to the external raceway, the annular shoulder of the outer ring being housed axially between the annular shoulder of the inner ring and the cylindrical rolling elements. The annular shoulder of the outer ring is provided with an annular chamfer in the immediate vicinity of the fillet defined on the inner ring.

A rolling bearing includes an inner ring; an outer ring; rolling elements; and a cage. The cage includes a pair of annular members and cage bars. An inner peripheral surface of at least one of the annular members includes a first inner peripheral surface and a second inner peripheral surface disposed axially inward of the first inner peripheral surface. The first inner peripheral surface is tilted such that an inside diameter of the first inner peripheral surface increases toward an axial inner side. The second inner peripheral surface has a constant inside diameter or is tilted at an angle different from an angle at which the first inner peripheral surface is tilted such that an inside diameter of the second inner peripheral surface increases toward the axial inner side.

A scanning unit for determining a relative angular position of an angular scale that is rotatable about an axis relative to the scanning unit includes a circuit board and evaluation electronics. A detector assembly is disposed in a manner that enables scanning of the angular scale. A contact carrier encloses electrical contacts for creating a plug-and-socket connection. The contact carrier has an outer wall and is mounted on the circuit board such that the electrical contacts extend in a direction having an axial component. A housing body is provided with an opening having an inner wall. A first elastic element is disposed under radial preload such that the contact carrier is centered with respect to the inner wall of the opening. The circuit board is torsionally rigidly attached to the housing body such that the circuit board is radially spaced therefrom by a first gap.

A strain wave gearing has a wave generator provided with a plug and a roller bearing. The roller bearing is provided with flange plates fixed to both sides of the plug, and outer circumferential edge portions of the flange plates protrude outwardly from a plug outer circumferential surface so as to locate on both sides, in an axial line direction, of the raceway of rollers. The movements of the rollers in the axial line direction are constrained by the outer circumferential edge portions. The movement of retainer in the axial line direction is constrained by engaging with the rollers. The movement of each component part of the roller bearing in the axial line direction can be constrained without using additional components.

Angular contact roller bearings include an inner bearing ring with an inner raceway, which is arranged on the outer shell surface of the inner bearing ring so as to be inclined with respect to the bearing axis of rotation. An outer bearing ring has an outer raceway, which is arranged on the inner shell surface of the outer bearing ring so as to be inclined with respect to the bearing axis of rotation. An integrally formed rim delimits each, and a multiplicity of roller-type rolling bodies are arranged between the bearing rings and roll on the raceways of the bearing rings and are held with uniform spacings to one another in a circumferential direction by a bearing cage.

The disclosure relates to a method for producing an angular contact roller bearing with unilaterally delimiting rims. The disclosure also relates to multiple variants of a device for assembling the angular contact roller bearing. The method may include conically forming an inner raceway into a cylindrical section of an outer shell surface of an inner bearing ring such that the inner raceway is inclined relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) and is delimited at one end by a rim, conically forming an outer raceway into a cylindrical section of an inner shell surface of an outer bearing ring such that the outer raceway is inclined relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) and is delimited at one end by a rim, and assembling the inner and outer bearing rings and a multiplicity of roller-type rolling bodies, which roll on the raceways of said bearing rings, in accordance with an eccentric assembly method.

A double-row self-aligning roller bearing, which is suitable for receiving an axial load and a radial load, and loads having different magnitudes acting on rollers in two rows, and achieves sufficient load capacity for the rollers that receive axial load within the constraint of dimensional standards, is provided. The double-row self-aligning roller bearing includes inner and outer rings; and rollers in two rows arranged in a bearing width direction interposed between the inner and outer rings and having lengths different from each other. The roller has an outer peripheral surface of a cross-sectional shape along a raceway surface of the outer ring having a spherical shape. Length of the longer rollers is equal to or greater than 39% of the bearing width. A ratio of contact angle of the shorter rollers and contact angle of the longer rollers is within a range of 1:4 to 1:2.
