  • Publication number: 20150024855
    Abstract: A roller includes: an outer peripheral rolling contact surface which is shaped by a simultaneous process in a state where end faces of a plurality of rollers are in contact with each other; and a protrusion which is axially protruded further than an axial end of the outer peripheral rolling contact surface. The protrusion has a protruded end face which, when the outer peripheral rolling contact surface is ground, is in contact with the end face of one of the rollers which are adjacent to each other, and forms an axial gap between ends of the outer peripheral rolling contact surfaces of the rollers which are adjacent to each other, in a state where the protruded end face is in contact with the end face. The protrusion further has a gap with respect to a tool when the outer peripheral rolling contact surface is processed.

  • Publication number: 20120302360
    Abstract: In a sliding-type tripod constant velocity joint establishing angular contact between each raceway groove of an outer ring and each roller, the section shape in a radial direction of each raceway groove is formed to an arc shape made by a first curvature radius centered at a first position. Longitudinal section shapes of first and second contact regions on the roller are formed to respective convex curves made respectively by second and third curvature radii which are respectively centered at a second position differing from the first position and a third position differing from the first position and the second position and which are smaller than the first curvature radius. A longitudinal section shape between the first contact region and the second contact region of the roller has a gap relative to the raceway groove.

  • Patent number: 8167499
    Abstract: A first spacer, a second tubular member, and a second spacer are externally fitted and fixed to an outer peripheral surface of a nut. The second tubular member is formed by stacking a plurality of silicon steel plates without any gap, and is arranged between the first spacer and the second spacer axially. The outer diameter of an outer peripheral surface of the second tubular member is made larger than the outer diameter of an outer peripheral surface of the first spacer and the outer diameter of an outer peripheral surface of the second spacer. A detection surface of a first displacement detector is made to radially face a contact portion between the second spacer and the second tubular member, while a detection surface of a second displacement detector is made to radially face a contact portion between the first spacer and the second tubular member.

  • Patent number: 7702472
    Abstract: A rolling bearing device with a sensor includes a rotational component estimator that extracts a rotational synchronization component included in the rotation of an inner shaft relative to an outer ring from each of a signal output by a first displacement detector and a signal output by a second displacement detector. The rotational component estimator performs rotational operation and integration operation.
