  • Patent number: 8418670
    Abstract: A needle roller bearing (21) as a roller bearing comprises an outer ring (22) having a plurality of outer ring members (22a) and (22b) split by a split line extending in the axial direction of the bearing, and a plurality of needle rollers (23) arranged along the track surface of the outer ring (22).
