The spacer comprises opposite inner and outer portions facing one another and at least a first lateral portion extending transversally between the inner and outer portions and connected to the portions. The inner and outer portions and the first lateral portion delimit at least partly a pocket configured to receive at least a contact roller. The inner and outer portions each comprise at least a protruding means extending outwards and having a contact surface with one of the inner and outer rings.

Abstract: The spacer is adapted for a rolling bearing comprising an inner ring, an outer ring and at least two rows of contact rollers disposed between raceways provided on the rings. The spacer comprises opposite inner and outer portions facing one another, a first lateral portion extending transversally between the inner and outer portions and connected to the portions, and a second lateral portion facing the first lateral portion and extending from the outer portion towards the inner portion. The inner and outer portions delimit together with the lateral portions a pocket configured to receive at least two superposed contact rollers. A free edge of the second lateral portion defines with the inner portion an aperture in order to open laterally the pocket on the side opposite to the first lateral portion.

Abstract: A rolling bearing including an inner ring, an outer ring and at least one row of angular contact rollers disposed between raceways provided on the rings, each roller comprising a rolling surface in contact with said raceways and two opposite end faces. The inner and outer rings having guiding faces coming into contact with the end faces of the rollers.

Abstract: Rolling bearing (1) comprising an inner ring (3), an outer ring (2), at least one row of rolling elements which are arranged between raceways made on the rings (2, 3) and an ring gear (6) fixed to one of the rings (2). The ring gear (6) is formed of at least two independent gear segments (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) which are each provided on their inner or outer peripheral surface with a plurality of meshing means (7b, 8b, 9b, 10b, 11b, 12b) and fixed only to one of either the inner or outer rings (3) of the rolling bearing (1), the circumference of the ring gear (6, 20) being substantially equal to the circumference of the combination of the independent gear segments.

Abstract: Rolling bearing (1) comprising an inner ring (3), an outer ring (2), at least one row of rolling elements which are arranged between raceways formed on the rings (2, 3) and a ring gear (6) that has a circumference of less than 360° and is fixed to one of the rings (2). The ring gear (6) is formed of a single gear segment (7) which has a circumference substantially equal to the circumference of the ring gear (6) and is provided on its inner or outer peripheral surface with a plurality of meshing means (7b) and fixed only to one of either the inner or outer rings (3) of the rolling bearing (1).

Abstract: The roller bearing comprises an inner ring 14, an outer ring 16, at least one row of rolling elements 18, 20, 22 which are arranged between the said rings in order to form an axial thrust which can transmit axial forces, and a row of rolling elements 24 arranged between the said rings in order to form a radial thrust which can transmit radial forces. The inner ring comprises an annular groove 36 which extends towards the interior from an outer surface 14c of the said ring, and forms a raceway for the rolling elements 24 of the radial thrust.

Abstract: The rolling bearing comprises an inner ring 1, an outer ring 2, at least one row of rolling elements and at least one seal 7 provided between the outer and inner rings. The seal 7 has, in cross section, the overall shape of an H and comprises internal lips 21, 22 and external lips 23, 24 forming the two substantially parallel branches of the H. The inner and outer rings 1, 2 comprise opposite radial ribs 25, 26 located axially between the internal and external lips 21 to 24 to axially retain the seal.

Abstract: A roller bearing for a tunneller having an inner ring, an outer ring, two sets of rolling elements arranged between the tracks formed on the rings, the first set of rolling elements including at least one roller able to withstand axial stresses and the second set of rolling elements including an angular-contact roller that is able to withstand both radial and axial stresses, the inner and outer rings being concentric about an axis of rotation of the roller bearing. Each roller in the first set includes a first axis of revolution (Y1-Y1) inclined in relation to the axis of rotation (X-X) by a first angle (?1) of between 45° and 95° and each roller in the second set includes a second axis of revolution (Y2-Y2) inclined in relation to the axis of rotation (X-X) by a second angle (?2) of between 0° and 45°.

Abstract: The rolling bearing comprises an inner ring 1, an outer ring 2, at least one row of rolling elements and at least one seal 7 provided between said outer and inner rings. The seal 7 has, in cross section, the overall shape of a H and comprises internal lips 21, 22 and external lips 23, 24 forming the two substantially parallel branches of said H. The inner and outer rings 1, 2 comprise opposite radial ribs 25, 26 located axially between the internal and external lips 21 to 24 to axially retain the seal.

Abstract: The spacer is adapted for a rolling bearing comprising an inner ring, an outer ring and at least two rows of contact rollers disposed between raceways provided on the rings. The spacer comprises opposite inner and outer portions facing one another, a first lateral portion extending transversally between the inner and outer portions and connected to the portions, and a second lateral portion facing the first lateral portion and extending from the outer portion towards the inner portion. The inner and outer portions delimit together with the lateral portions a pocket configured to receive at least two superposed contact rollers. A free edge of the second lateral portion defines with the inner portion an aperture in order to open laterally the pocket on the side opposite to the first lateral portion.
