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 method of manufacturing a rotating bearing unit includes to cause one end surface in the axial direction of the forming punch (46), formed by combining a plurality of punch elements (46, 46) divided in the circumferential direction, which are displaceable in the axial direction and which are not displaceable in the circumferential direction, and having a processing teeth (44, 44) at one end surface in the axial direction, to face the other end surface of the caulking section (20) in the axial direction. In this state, rolls (30a) are rotated about the central axis () of the hub main body (8) while pressing the other end surface of the forming punch (46) in the axial direction with a pressing surface (43) of the roll (30a) having a central axis () that is inclined with respect to the central axis () of the hub main body (8).

Angular contact roller bearings are disclosed. The bearing may include an inner bearing ring with an inner raceway, which is arranged on the outer shell surface of said inner bearing ring so as to be oblique with respect to the bearing axis of rotation (AL), and comprising a rim which delimits said raceway at its smallest diameter. An outer bearing ring has an outer raceway, which is arranged on the inner shell surface of said outer bearing ring likewise so as to be oblique with respect to the bearing axis of rotation (AL), and a rim which delimits said raceway at its greatest diameter. A multiplicity of roller-type rolling bodies are arranged between the bearing rings and roll on the raceways of said bearing rings and are held with uniform spacings to one another in a circumferential direction by means of a bearing cage. A tangent to the outer shell surface of the inner bearing ring and a tangent to the inner shell surface of the outer bearing ring are, at least in the region of the raceways, of planar form so as to run in opposite directions obliquely with respect to the bearing axis of rotation (AL). The raceways of the two bearing rings are each formed in conical fashion into said shell surfaces and the rims which are thus formed and which delimit the raceways in each case on one side are thus each formed integrally with the bearing rings.

An inner ring (10a) of a hub is fitted around a fitting tube part (11) in a state where an axially outer end of the inner ring abuts on a step surface (12), and the axially inner end surface of the inner ring is pressed by an axially outer surface of a pressing part (17) of a clamp portion (13a). Thereby, a hub body (9a) and the inner ring (10a) are fixedly coupled. The clamp portion (13a) has an engaging recess (19) that extends in a radial direction. The inner ring (10a) has an engaging protrusion (21) that is engaged with the engaging recess (19).
