  • Patent number: 8454241
    Abstract: A rolling device in which rust development or damage on a raceway surface or rolling surface is hard to occur even if water and the like intrude is provided. A self-aligning roller bearing comprises an inner ring 1, an outer ring 2, and a plurality of rolling elements 3 disposed rotatably between a raceway surface 1a of the inner ring 1 and a raceway surface 2a of the outer ring 2. At least any one of the inner ring 1, the outer ring 2, and the rolling elements 3 is provided with a metal coating formed by shot peening of a powder of metal less noble than iron at least on a part of its surface.

  • Patent number: 6689721
    Abstract: This invention is to provide a conductive grease which is less to decrease conductivity as a time passes. The conductive grease comprises a base oil, a thickener, a conductive solid powder, and at least one kind of a wear inhibitor, an extreme pressure agent and an oiliness agent, wherein an amount of the conductive solid powder added is 0.1 to 10 wt %, and an amount of the at least one kind of a wear inhibitor, an extreme pressure agent and an oiliness agent added is 0.1 to 10 wt %. Further, the conductive grease comprises the base oil and at least one of conductive additives, and the conductive additives are fibrous carbon, metallic particle, metallic compound particle and carbon nano-tube. The conductive grease to be packed into the rolling bearing comprises conductive fine particles such as carbon black and has an oil separation degree of 2% or lower.
