A ball bearing cage has a radially encircling, annular body, on which in the circumferential direction, substantially evenly distributed, axially projecting webs having a predefinable axial length are arranged. The webs form a plurality of axially open ball pockets on one side for accommodating a corresponding number of balls having a predefinable ball diameter. At least for one web, a guide section is formed to bring same into an engagement with a running groove of a ball bearing ring. The axial length of the webs corresponds to at least the ball diameter. There is also described a ball bearing having such a ball bearing cage.

A bearing assembly comprises ring assemblies cooperating to form a roller volume. A single circumferential slot is in an inner circumferential surface of the inner ring assembly and in fluid communication with the roller volume through central passages in the inner ring assembly. The proximal inner ring includes proximal axial slots extending axially along a proximal portion of the inner circumferential surface, a first plurality of the proximal axial slots being in fluid communication with the roller volume, a second plurality of the proximal axial slots not in fluid communication with the roller volume. The distal inner ring includes distal axial slots extending axially along a distal portion of the inner circumferential surface from the circumferential slot to respective distal passages in fluid communication with the roller volume, wherein a circumferential spacing between adjacent proximal axial slots is equivalent to a circumferential spacing between adjacent distal axial slots.

A bearing seal provides a first sealing member to be secured to a shoulder on one side of a first bearing ring and a second sealing member that can be secured to a shoulder on the same side of a second bearing ring. A labyrinth seal gap is formed between the first sealing member and the second sealing member, which has at least one tooth-shaped turn. On the basis of the above bearing seal, the present invention further provides a rolling bearing that employs the bearing seal on an axial side thereof.

A wheel bearing having a cup, a cone and a washer. The cone is of a complementary shape to the cup and the washer abuts a surface of the cone. Each of the cup, the cone and the washer are made from a self-lubricating polymer.

A deep groove ball bearing includes an outer ring, an inner ring, a cage, and steel balls. The cage is provided between the outer ring and the inner ring. Pockets are formed in the cage, and the steel balls are placed in the pockets. The cage is split into an upper cage body and a lower cage body. Pocket grooves are formed alternately in each of the upper cage body and the lower cage body. A connecting portion is provided between adjacent pocket grooves in the upper cage body. A positioning portion is provided between adjacent pocket grooves in the lower cage body. An insertion piece and an insertion groove are provided between the connecting portion and the positioning portion. The insertion piece and the insertion groove are configured to be fixed with each other to form a fixed connection between the upper cage body and the lower cage body.

Provided are that a cage for a rolling bearing in which seizure or break is not generated under a condition of a high temperature and a high speed in which a dm.Math.n value is not less than 80×10.sup.4, and a rolling bearing using the cage. The rolling bearing 1 is provided with an inner ring 2, an outer ring 3, a plurality of rolling elements 4 interposed between the inner ring and the outer ring and a cage 5 which retains the rolling elements 4. The cage 5 is formed by injection molding a resin composition. The resin composition comprises polyamide resin made from a dicarboxylic acid component and a diamine component as a base resin and a fiber reinforcing member added. The dicarboxylic acid component contains terephthalic acid as a main component. The diamine component contains 1,10-diaminodecane as a main component. The fiber reinforcing member contains 15 to 50 mass % of glass fibers or 10 to 35 mass % of carbon fibers based on the whole resin composition.
