Bearing for a shed-forming machine or a system for transmitting movement to the frames of a loom, which has an inner ring, an outer ring and rolling elements. The inner ring is centered on a major axis, has two lateral surfaces normal to the major axis, and defines a circular peripheral path centered on the major axis. The outer ring defines an inner path, which is circular and centered on the main axis. The rolling elements are interposed, radially with respect to the main axis, between the peripheral ring and the inner ring, to guide the outer ring in rotation relative to the inner ring around the main axis. The inner ring has at least one slot, opening onto the two lateral surfaces, extending opposite a portion of the peripheral path, and forms a bridge of material between the slot and the peripheral path.

The present invention proposes a deep groove ball bearing, having an outer ring, an inner ring, spherical rollers located between the inner ring and outer ring, and a cage for holding the spherical rollers. In an axial direction, the inner ring has a first inner ring shoulder at a first side, and a second inner ring shoulder at a second side opposite the first side; and a first inner ring shoulder diameter of the first inner ring shoulder is configured to be larger than a second inner ring shoulder diameter of the second inner ring shoulder. The present invention further proposes a differential including the deep groove ball bearing.

A combined electrical insulator and conductor assembly for a bearing disposable between a shaft and a housing includes an annular insulator disposable about the bearing outer ring and configured to prevent electric current flow between the outer ring and the housing and including projections extending axially along and spaced circumferentially about a centerline. A conductor preferably includes a conductive disk with an outer radial end engageable with the housing inner surface, an inner radial end defining a central opening for receiving the shaft and openings each receiving a separate one of the plurality of projections of the insulator such that the disk is axially fixed relative to the insulator. An annular conductive brush subassembly is coupled with the conductive disk and includes a plurality of electrically conductive fibers contactable with the shaft outer surface so as to provide a conductive path between the shaft and the disk.

A bar portion is formed so that an outer circumferential surface on a tip portion side is located on an inner diameter side with respect to an outer circumferential surface of a main portion. On an inner diameter side of a cage, lightened portions obtained by notching in an axial direction from an axial side surface of the main portion are formed separately at positions of the respective bar portions in a circumferential direction. Each lighting portion is formed separately from a surface of a pocket and an axially outer surface of the bar portion formed between a pair of claw portions. An axial dimension T1 of a wall portion formed between an axially outer surface of the bar portion and an inner wall surface of the lightened portion is greater than an axial dimension T2 of the main portion on a bottom portion of the pocket.

The bearing provides a first ring and a second ring centered on an axis, each of the first and second rings being provided with an outer cylindrical surface, with an inner cylindrical surface, and with lateral faces that axially delimit the outer and inner cylindrical surface. One of the inner and outer cylindrical surfaces and/or one of the lateral faces of the first ring includes a textured area provided with a groove extending circumferentially and with two protrusions disposed one on each side of the groove and extending along the groove.

A rotary bearing (50), especially for harmonic gearing, comprising an outer bearing ring (1b) and an inner bearing ring (1a) arranged therein; whereby the inner bearing ring (1a) and the outer bearing ring (1b) are each provided with at least one receptacle (10, 11) through which, when the two receptacles (10, 11) are in a corresponding position with respect to one another, rolling elements (8) can be inserted through a receptacle opening (22) formed by the two receptacles (10, 11) into an anti-friction bearing between the bearing surface (7) of the inner bearing ring (1a) and the bearing surface (9) of the outer bearing ring (1b), wherein a guide ring (20) for the rolling elements (8) is arranged in at least one of the two receptacles (10, 11) between the receptacle opening (22) and the rolling elements (8).
