  • Patent number: 11767488
    Abstract: The rolling bearing of the present invention is lubricated with a lubricant composition which contains a fatty acid metal salt, a metal dithiocarbamate, a phosphorous-type additive, and a basic additive, and which has a total acid value of 3.7 mgKOH/g or more. The rolling bearing makes it possible to further improve anti-fretting performance, and to reduce a decrease in fretting resistance even when used under the circumstance that fluorine-type grease penetrates into the bearing using urea-type grease.

  • Publication number: 20160201726
    Abstract: In the rolling device of the present invention, a grease composition is enclosed which contains a base oil having a kinematic viscosity of 15 to 80 mm2/s at 40° C. and, as a thickener, a mixture of lithium 12-hydroxystearate and a lithium fatty acid having a carbon number of 6 to 12, and has a dropping point of 190 to 240° C. and a yield stress of 1.2 to 5 kPa. Accordingly, the torque is reduced and the acoustic life is improved.

  • Patent number: 8007181
    Abstract: A grease composition having an apparent viscosity at ?30° C. of 5 to 200 Pa·s is sealed in a rolling bearing which retains a plurality of rolling elements between an inner ring and an outer ring in such a way that the rolling elements can freely roll. Thereby, there is provided a rolling bearing which has a satisfactory lubricating performance and generates less abnormal noise even under a low temperature of around ?40° C.

  • Patent number: 7265080
    Abstract: The rolling bearing of the invention to be incorporated in the compressor for fuel cell system comprises a fluorine-based grease containing a fluororesin and a fluorine-based oil, a urea grease containing a urea compound and a synthetic oil or a lithium complex grease containing a lithium complex and a synthetic oil encapsulated therein. In this arrangement, the grease deterioration of the rolling bearing incorporated in the compressor for force-feeding various fluids between machines can be prevented, making it possible to provide a fuel cell system which can maintain stable operation over an extended period of time.
