  • Retention method of a bearing
    Publication number: 20050160601
    Abstract: The material of the wall inside a hole in a housing is squeezed toward the center of the using a staking tool with a diameter larger than that of the hole. The material necessary for forming a locking section can be obtained from only a small part of the entire area of the wall of the hole. The amount of material necessary for the entire process is secured and the material is pressed so as to contact with an end face of the outer race using the staking tool, forming the locking section. Accordingly, the locking section provides sufficient strength. Also, since only the small part of the entire area of the wall is necessary as described above, there is no decrease in strength or deformation as to the thin housing.
