A speed reduce according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a case having an outer diameter D, a plurality of crankshafts, and a carrier supporting the crankshafts in a rotatable manner. The carrier is rotatable by the crankshafts relative to the case. Each of the plurality of crankshafts includes a plurality of eccentric members each of which has a diameter dc1 and a crank journal that has a diameter dc2. The crankshaft further includes n1 needles that are arranged around each of the plurality of eccentric members and each of which has a diameter size dr1, and n2 needles that are arranged around the crank journal and each of which has a diameter size dr2. In the speed reducer, relational expression 5.5≤D/dc1≤7.0 is satisfied.

A bearing cage is disclosed that includes a first ring and a second ring with a plurality of crossbars extending therebetween to define a plurality of rolling element pockets. The first ring and the second ring each include a plurality of radially outward protrusions, a plurality of reliefs, and a plurality of axially extending protrusions extending into the plurality of rolling element pockets. The plurality of crossbars each include a plurality of retention tabs configured to engage rolling elements in the plurality of rolling element pockets.

An axial bearing is designed to work in a liner hangar in which radial package space is at a premium. Rollers axially separate two washers. To hold the bearing together prior to installation, a sleeve radially surrounds the rollers and has tabs which fit into circumferential grooves in the washers. The sleeve may be metal or plastic.

A handheld power tool gearbox unit, including at least one planetary gear stage, which includes at least one planet carrier, at least one planetary wheel, which is rotatably supported in relation to the planet carrier, and at least one bearing unit, which is provided to rotatably support the planetary wheel in relation to the planet carrier. The planetary wheel includes a pin, which rotatably supports the bearing unit in the planet carrier.

A universal joint may include a joint cross having two pairs of journals arranged at right angles to one another and two joint yokes that each have opposing arms. Each journal may be rotatably mounted in the opposing arms about a journal axis in a journal bearing that has a pot-shaped outer bushing that is fixed in the respective arms and that has an outer pot base disposed opposite an end side of the journal. A convexly projecting contact region may contact the outer pot base. Further, an inner bushing may be fixed on the journal, and rolling bodies may be disposed between the inner bushing and the pot-shaped outer bushing. The convexly projecting contact region may project axially on the end side relative to a surface of the inner bushing that acts as a raceway for the rollable rolling bodies.

A very compact play-free bearing unit includes a bearing that runs without play while having a reasonably large play when assembling and during disassembly of the bearing unit from its axle. The bearing unit uses three bearings, one of which is mobile, and thanks to a preloading mechanism the play is removed when loaded. Thanks to an amplification lever, the preloading unit is able to function either with a pneumatic actuator or with a hydraulic actuator.
