A retainer is rotationally driven about a axis of a ball bearing, and convex areas having pockets provided therein along a ball pitch circle of the retainer and concave areas between adjacent pockets is detected by a sensor. Grease is discharged according to phases of the convex areas and concave areas in the rotationally driven retainer from a dispenser having grease discharge ports arranged to face an annular space.

A linear guide with lubrication device includes: a elongate rail; a slide module slidably mounted on the elongate rail and including a slide block and two recirculation members, which are respectively mounted to two end faces of the slide block and include a plurality of recirculation passages, in which at least one of the recirculation members includes a lubricant reservoir and a fixing through hole formed therein such that the lubricant reservoir, the recirculation passage, and the fixing through hole are in communication with each other and the lubricant reservoir receives lubricant filled therein; an application member received in the fixing through hole; a transferring member covering the application member and the transferring member absorbing and transferring lubricant to the application member. Rolling bodies, when moving through the recirculation passage, may contact the application member to have lubricant applied thereto.

A rolling bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of rolling elements, and a cage. The cage includes an annular body, a plurality of cage prongs, and guide portions placed inward of the cage prongs in the radial direction of the cage such that the guide portions extend from a radially inner part of the annular body toward a second side in the axial direction of the cage, the guide portions being configured to position the cage by making contact with an inner ring raceway. The cage has a groove so as to connect pockets adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, the groove being configured such that lubricant is present in the groove and a groove width of the groove is increased in the radial direction in the center of the groove in the circumferential direction.

A bearing, including: an axis of rotation; an inner ring including a first radially inner circumferential side; an outer ring arranged radially outward of the inner ring and including a first radially outer circumferential side; a cage radially arranged between the inner and outer rings; and at least one rolling element positioned within the cage. The inner ring includes at least one circumferentially extending groove in the radially inner circumferential side and at least one through-bore connecting the at least one circumferentially extending groove to a space formed between the inner and outer rings; or the outer ring includes at least one circumferentially extending groove in the radially outer circumferential side and at least one through-bore connecting the at least one circumferentially extending groove to a space formed between the inner and outer rings.

Provided is a resin cage for a tapered roller bearing in which a mold parting line which is extended in an axial direction is formed in a pillar portion defining a pocket. On facing surfaces of adjacent pillar portions, on an outer diameter side from the mold parting line, a first conical surface which slides in contact with an outer peripheral surface of a tapered roller is formed, and a first flat surface in a radial direction is formed in a portion on the outer diameter side from the first conical surface. On an inner diameter side from the mold parting line, a second conical surface which slides in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the tapered roller is formed, and a second flat surface in a radial direction is formed in a portion on the inner diameter side from the second conical surface

A motion guiding device includes a supporting body and a moving body. The moving body includes a moving body main body, a cover body and a circulation component. The cover body includes a first lubrication groove. The motion guiding device is further provided with a lubrication path component, the lubrication path component including a second lubrication groove having a cross-sectional area less than that of the first lubrication groove. When a lubricating oil is used as the lubricant, the lubricant is supplied by a lubricating oil lubrication path formed by the first lubrication groove and the second lubrication groove. In this way, in the motion guiding device, the lubrication path may be widened when the lubricating grease is used to lubricate, while the lubrication path may be narrowed when the lubricating oil is used to lubricate, so that a good lubrication may be easily achieved.

A wheel bearing arrangement for a vehicle, having rotatable and statically fixed components, and at least two rolling body bearings arranged radially between the rotatable and statically fixed components for rotatably mounting the rotatable component. The at least two rolling body bearings have in each case an inner ring, an outer ring, and a rolling body row arranged therebetween. A spacer sleeve is arranged at end sides of the respective inner rings for axially securing the two inner rings. A respective securing ring is arranged fixedly on the respective inner rings so as to rotate therewith. The securing rings each have a substantially axially configured lug with a respective radial embossment arranged in a respective groove configured on an outer circumferential face of the spacer sleeve, in order to connect the respective inner rings axially to the spacer sleeve via the respective securing rings.

A rotating conduit joint has a pair of conduits engaged with a bearing set. The bearing set has an outer race an inner race separated by ball bearings. The conduits have clearance holes aligned with radial holes in the races. Screw fasteners are engaged with the clearance holes and radial holes to secure the conduits to the bearing set in mutual rotation. The radial holes may be filled with a lubricant. Furthermore, the radial holes may be of constant diameter, conical, or threaded and may be open to the ball bearings to deliver the lubricant to the ball bearings.

A cage segment for a rolling bearing, includes a central portion extending in the circumferential direction and delimiting a plurality of through pockets for receiving rollers. The central portion have first, and second walls extending in the circumferential direction and provided with internal surfaces opposite one another and forming abutment surfaces for the end faces of the rollers. A first lateral shoulder outwardly extends from the first wall of the central portion, and a second lateral shoulder outwardly extends from the second wall of the central portion by being oriented at right angles to the first lateral shoulder, and at least one outwardly open recess being formed on each of the first and second lateral shoulders.

First and second bearing cage halves each having an annular base body and a plurality of pins extending from the base body and a plurality of pin receptacles, the first and second cage haves forming a bearing cage when the pins are received into the pin receptacles. A body of sacrificial material is located on the pins and/or in the pin receptacles which body is configured to be melted ultrasonically to join the first cage half to the second cage half and form the bearing cage.
