An annular, axially directed recess is formed in the front surface of the outer ring, and a plurality of axially directed slots extend radially therethrough from the front face. The slots and recess define sets of inner and outer tongues which flex to enable insertion of the ball-shaped element in the bore of the outer ring. At least one of the confronting surfaces of the radially adjacent inner and outer tongues is provided with one or more ribs, which are separated from the facing tongue surface by a gap when the bearing is unassembled and which are nearly or completely closed when the bearing is assembled. The circumferential surface of the outer ring has radial projections in the area of the recess for snapping the outer ring into the bore of a housing.

Abstract: A roller casing for a pulley is comprised of coaxial ring halves mounted one over the other. The diameter of the running surface can be varied without varying the bearing size by employing corrugations in the circumferential direction, or by providing lateral radially outwardly directed rims on the inner ring part. Alternatively the iner ring may be comprised of two ring halves having their central parts directed toward one another.

Abstract: A ball bearing for lengthwise and rotational movement on a shaft has circumferentially distributed endless rows of balls. It consists of an outer sleeve with an axially extending cylindrical race in its bore for the loaded balls of each row and a sleeve-shaped cage rotatably arranged in the bore of the outer sleeve. The cage has axially extending races for the loaded and unloaded balls and these guides are interconnected in pairs by semi-circular shaped radially outwardly open turnaround races. An axially extending return recess for the unloaded balls of each row is machined between each pair of cylindrical races, either in the cylindrical bore of the outer sleeve or on the cylindrical shaft. In order to avoid contact wear of the balls in the turnaround races upon turning movement of the shaft, the cage is held at its two ends by an end ring having an outer section radially covering the turnaround guides of the cage.
