A bearing unit may have a radially outer ring, a radially inner ring, a row of rolling bodies interposed between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring, a casing inside which the rings of the bearing unit are housed. The bearing unit may further have a sealing device and a disc-like element for protecting the sealing device, made as one piece, entirely of plastic or composite material, axially external with respect to the sealing device, stably anchored in a seat of the casing and having a radial distance (d2) between a radially internal surface of the disc-like element and the radially inner ring ranging between 0.75 mm and 0.95 mm so as to block large-size external contaminants, without making contact with the radially inner ring.

A scroll compressor and a method for oil enrichment and distribution, wherein the scroll compressor includes a compressor housing, two scrolls, a respective base plate, an eccentric drive, a drive shaft, an axis of rotation, a balance weight, a first bearing, a second bearing, and a counter-pressure space, and wherein a sealing washer is fixed on the first bearing at a side of the first bearing directed to the cavity of the rotatable balance weight and of the second bearing such that the sealing washer seals the first bearing on one side in a radially outer part of a region between an inner ring and an outer ring through which fluid can flow and is, at the same time, spaced from the inner ring in a radial manner such that a gap through which fluid can flow remains.

A rolling bearing capable of achieving reduction in torque is provided. The rolling bearing includes an inner ring and an outer ring disposed coaxially with each other, a rolling element disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring, a seal member configured to cover an area between the inner ring and the outer ring from an outside in an axial direction, and filled grease disposed between the rolling element and the seal member. The filled grease includes a first ring-like part which extends to form a circumferential shape centering on a common axis of the inner ring and the outer ring, and which has contact with one of the inner ring and the outer ring, and a second ring-like part which extends to form a circumferential shape centering on the common axis, which is connected to the first ring-like part at an outer side in the axial direction, and which has contact with the seal member.

A hub bearing assembly for the rotatable mounting of a soil cultivating disc (D) on a support shaft (A) of an agricultural machine, the assembly being provided with a hub bearing unit which in turn is provided with a flanged outer ring carrying two integral outer raceways for respective rows of rolling bodies, a flange fixed to the flanged outer ring for mounting a disc (D), and, for each outer raceway, an inner ring axially adjacent to the other inner ring, both of which can be engaged by the support shaft (A); and a sealing device mounted on a side of the hub bearing assembly opposite the side of the flange, composed of a first sealing stage and a second sealing stage arranged sequentially along the support shaft (A) and housed in respective seats formed directly in the flanged outer ring.

A bearing unit having a radially outer ring, a radially inner ring, a row of rolling elements interposed between the outer ring and the inner ring, a shaped sealing screen interposed between the inner ring and the outer ring and stably inserted inside a first seat of the outer ring, and a snap ring stably inserted inside a second seat of the radially outer ring and interacting with the shaped screen so as to lock it in the first seat.

A centerless grinding processing in which a sliding contact surface (10) is subjected to grinding by pressing a grindstone against the sliding contact surface (10) of an inner ring (3) while rotating the inner ring (3) relative to the grindstone in a prescribed direction, and then, in the centerless grinding process, a finishing step in which grinding lines in a direction intersecting grinding lines formed on the sliding contact surface (10) are formed on the sliding contact surface (10) and/or processing for improving the surface roughness of the sliding contact surface (10) is performed is performed.

A ball bearing is provided which includes a cage made of a resin, and having pockets open to the side surface of the cage on its one axial side. The ball bearing includes an outer bearing ring including a radially protruding engagement portion on the other axial side of the raceway surface. The cage includes engagement portions disposed on the other axial side of the pockets so as to be engageable with the engagement portion of the outer bearing ring in the other axial direction. The relationship between the axial depth H of each pocket and the diameter d of the ball is set at 0.15d≤H≤0.65d. By setting the above relationship in this way, it is possible to reduce the deformation of the cage due to a centrifugal force, and to reduce the shear resistance of lubricating oil between the pockets and the balls.
