In a tapered roller bearing, a cage includes a plurality of trapezoidal pockets and the pockets accommodate and hold a plurality of rollers. A notch having a width is provided in a post on a smaller width side of the pocket of the cage from a boundary between a smaller annular portion and a post toward a larger annular portion. Lubricating oil which flows from an inner diameter side of the cage toward an inner ring is quickly discharged through the notch toward an outer ring on an outer diameter side. A distance from an outermost surface of at least any one of the outer ring and the inner ring of the roller and a plurality of rollers to a bottom of a nitrogen enriched layer is equal to or longer than 0.2 mm. A rolling surface of the roller is provided with a logarithmic crowning profile.

A needle roller thrust bearing includes an annular cage and a plurality of rollers. The cage includes a plurality of cage pockets that is radially disposed. The plurality of rollers is housed in the cage pockets and disposed between a first raceway surface and a second raceway surface that axially face each other. Lubricating oil flows from a radially inner side to a radially outer side in an annular space in which the cage and the rollers are provided. The cage includes inner grooves and drainage grooves. Each of the inner grooves connects a circumferentially adjacent pair of the cage pockets by connecting radially inner areas of the pair of cage pockets. Each of the drainage grooves has an opening at an outer circumferential surface of the cage to drain lubricating oil in a circumferential area including radially outer areas of the cage pockets.

Disclosed is an axial-radial rolling bearing having an inner ring, an outer ring disposed around the inner ring, and a plurality of rolling bodies in the form of rollers arranged into at least one row disposed between and separating the inner ring and the outer ring. The rolling bearing further includes at least one rolling bearing cage disposed around at least part of the rollers and configured to maintain a predetermined spacing of each of the rollers from each adjacent roller in the at least one row, wherein the rolling bearing cage comprises a plastic coated main body that is at least one of ring-shaped or segmented. The main body has openings for receiving the respective rolling elements.

A bearing cage for a roller bearing assembly. The roller bearing assembly includes an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of roller elements. The bearing cage includes an annular body extending along an axial direction. The annular body is configured to be positioned between the inner annular ring and the outer annular ring and configured to receive a plurality of roller elements. The annular body includes a first end including a first inner radial surface opposite the inner annular ring. The annular body further includes a second end opposite the first end. The second end includes a second inner radial surface opposite the inner annular ring. The first end extends axially beyond the inner annular ring and the second end extends axially beyond the inner annular ring.

A bearing cage for a roller bearing assembly is provided. The roller bearing assembly includes an outer annular ring, an inner annular ring including an outer radial surface, and a plurality of roller elements. The bearing cage includes an annular body configured to be positioned between the inner annular ring and the outer annular ring and configured to receive the plurality of roller elements. The annular body includes a first end including a first inner radial surface opposite the inner annular ring and a second end including a second inner radial surface opposite the inner annular ring, wherein the annular body extends from the first end to the second end in an axial direction. The annular body includes a first lubricant interface configured to receive oil and defined by the first inner radial surface and a second lubricant interface configured to receive oil and defined by the second inner radial surface.

A retainer-equipped double-row needle-roller bearing includes a pair of annular end flange portions; a center annular center flange portion; and two rows of pillars connecting the portions to each other to provide pockets between mutually adjacent pairs of pillars in a circumferential direction for holding rollers in two rows. The center flange portion has an outer diameter (D2), and the end flange portions have an outer diameter (D1), in a relationship expressed as D2<D1. When the retainer moves radially by an amount of gap associated with the rollers, the retainer is guided on the outer diameter surfaces of the end flange portions at two ends of the retainer, by the inner diameter surface of a housing. This stabilizes behavior of the retainer during rotation, reducing premature wear and abnormal noise.

A holder for a self-aligning roller bearing, having a central annular part with lintels fixed on side surfaces thereof in an axial direction and protruding parts which protrude closer to the outer sides in a radial direction than the lintels. The holder includes reinforcement parts fixed to the central annular part and the lintels on outer sides of the lintels in the radial direction and on outer sides of the protruding parts in the axial direction. In cross sections cut out along the axial direction and radial direction, at least a part of a contour line of outer side surfaces of the reinforcement parts in the axial direction extends inwardly in the radial direction while extending toward outwardly in the axial direction. A self-aligning roller bearing having the holder with improved connection strength of connection parts between the lintels and the central annular part prolongs bearing service life.

A method of manufacturing, comprising utilizing at least one cycloid machine to machine a component blank, wherein the component blank includes a plurality of pockets, guiding a tool cutting lip of a chisel along a cycloid path relative to the component blank rotating about a component rotation axis in a component direction of rotation, rotating the chisel about a tool rotating axis, wherein the tool rotating axis is arranged offset to the component rotating axis, machining the plurality of pockets, wherein a radial vector to a tool rotation axis that extends through a cutting edge of the tool cutting lip, and dividing the tool cutting lip into a clearance angle portion and into a rake angle portion, wherein the clearance angle portion is configured to be at least twice as large as the rake angle portion of the chisel.
