A cage segment for a rolling bearing delimiting a plurality of through pockets for receiving rollers and having 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, and a plurality of beams extending transversely between the first and second walls and linking the walls, each pocket being delimited in the circumferential direction by two successive beams and each beam partly delimiting two successive pockets. Each beam includes, at a lateral end, a protuberance of concave outer form and intended to come into contact with the outer surface of at least one roller, two protuberances being opposite in the circumferential direction for each through pocket.

A bearing cage for large rolling-element bearings includes a first side part and a second side part and a plurality of bridge elements connecting the first and second side parts to form a plurality of cage pockets each configured to receive a rolling element. The at least one bridge element and/or the first side part and/or the second side part includes at least one opening, and an insert element is mounted in each of the at least one opening and configured to contact the rolling element.

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.

A cage segment is for a rolling-element bearing cage, particularly for large rolling-element bearings. The cage segment includes a first side element and a second side element that are connected by a first bridge and a second bridge. At least one pocket is formed between the first and second bridges which is suitable for receiving at least one rolling element. The cage segment is manufactured from sheet metal.

A cage segment for a rolling-element bearing cage includes first and second side elements connected by a bridge extending in a longitudinal direction. A first attaching element on the first side element extends away from the bridge in a first direction parallel to the longitudinal axis and a second attaching element on the second side element extends away from the bridge in a second direction parallel to the longitudinal axis. The first and second attaching elements are configured to receive a wire or cable for connecting the cage segments to other cage segments, and the first attaching element is offset from the longitudinal axis in a first direction by a first distance and the second attaching element is offset from the longitudinal axis in a second direction opposite the first direction by a second distance.

A rolling-element bearing cage includes a first side ring and a second side ring connected to the first side ring by a plurality of bridges defining a plurality of pockets configured to receive a rolling-element. The first side ring includes a joint at which the first side ring is configured to be opened to increase a diameter of the first side ring, and the first side ring and the second side ring and the plurality of bridges are made of steel and an outer diameter of the second side ring is greater than 500 mm.
