Abstract: A rolling bearing fixing device includes at least one bearing having mutually rotatable inner and outer rings, a housing having at least one fitting hole into which the bearing is fitted and a bolt insertion hole, a pair of fixing plates having at least one large-diameter hole and a bolt insertion hole; and a bolt inserted from one axial end into the bolt insertion hole of one fixing plate, the bolt insertion hole of the housing, and the bolt insertion hole of the other fixing plate, and connects the housing with the pair of fixing plates. Both axial end parts of the outer ring are held by the pair of fixing plates in the axial direction, the inner ring is positioned further inwardly of the large-diameter hole of the fixing plates in the radial direction and the inner ring is rotatable with respect to the fixing plates.

Abstract: A retainer plate 7a is fitted on a smaller-diameter step portion 9a of an outer ring 5a, and a retaining ring 11 fitted on the smaller-diameter step portion 9a is engaged with retaining projections 15 formed on an inner circumferential surface of a fitting hole 12 formed through the retainer plate 7a, thereby preventing the retainer plate 7a from falling-off from the smaller-diameter step portion 9a. The structures and shapes of the various portions are so determined that working or machining can be easily effected to form these portions so as to overcome a problem encountered with the conventional structure.
