A bearing includes an outer ring with a first outer roller race, a second outer roller race, and a radially inward facing outer ball race. The bearing includes a first and second inner rings that axially abutting one another at an abutment interface. The first inner ring has a first inner roller race, the second inner ring has a second inner roller race that are disposed in an interior area coaxially with the outer ring. A plurality of first rollers rollingly engage the first outer roller race and the first inner roller race. A plurality of second rollers rollingly engage the second outer roller race and the second inner roller race. A plurality of balls rollingly engage the outer ball race and the inner ball race.

A rolling bearing having an inner raceway and an outer raceway and a plurality of rolling elements arranged therebetween. The rolling bearing is media-lubricated or oil-free lubricated. The lubricant forms an elasto-hydrodynamic lubricant film between the rolling elements and the raceways. At first use of the rolling bearing, at least one surface of the rolling bearing is coated with a protective fluid, preferably an oil-based preservative fluid. Also, a refrigerant compressor having such a rolling bearing.

Screw compressor element provided with a housing wherein a rotor is rotatably arranged by way of two bearings, respectively being a cylinder bearing (3) and a ball bearing (4), each provided with an inner ring (5, 6) and an outer ring (7, 8), separated by respectively cylindrical, or ball-shaped rolling elements (9, 10) that contact the inner ring (5, 6) and the outer ring (7, 8) at the location of a raceway (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b), characterised in that, next to the respective raceway (11a, 12a), the inner rings (5, 6) of the aforementioned bearings (3, 4) have a smaller outer diameter (B) than the respective raceway (11a, 12a) on the side facing the other bearing (3, 4) and in that next; to the respective raceway (11a, 12a), the inner rings (5, 6) of the bearings have a greater outer diameter (C, D) than the respective raceway (11a, 11b) on the side facing away from the other bearing (3, 4).

The invention relates to a large rolling bearing, more particularly an open-center large rolling bearing, comprising two concentric running rings, between which a plurality of rolling elements is provided in a bearing gap, which rolling elements roll on at least two raceways. More particularly, the bearing gap between the running rings and/or between at least one running ring and the rolling elements is at least partially filled with a solid lubricant, which comprises a polymer matrix and a lubricant embedded therein.
