  • Patent number: 9638254
    Abstract: There is provided a rolling bearing including: inner and outer members, rolling elements in a raceway space, flexible annular sealing members which close openings at both ends of the raceway space, and annular metal shield members. Each sealing member is formed in three-dimensional shape such that the sealing member in a natural state is convex inwardly between outer and inner circumferential edge portions and the inner circumferential edge portion is elastically in surface contact with the outer surface of the inner member when the sealing member is fitted to the outer member. Each metal shield member is fixed to the outer member in a state that the outer circumferential edge portion of each sealing member is sandwiched between the metal shield member and the outer member. Each metal shield member covers part of each sealing member without contacting the inner member.

  • Publication number: 20160290400
    Abstract: There is provided a track roller bearing. The track roller bearing comprises: an inner ring, an outer ring concentric and rotatable relative to the inner ring; a resin liner formed on at least one of an outer circumferential surface of the inner ring and an inner circumferential surface of the outer ring; and an opposite surface which slides on a liner sliding surface of the resin liner. A non-contact portion is formed in an area in which the resin liner is formed, the non-contact portion being a portion in which the liner sliding surface does not contact the opposite surface.
