  • Publication number: 20210293271
    Abstract: To provide a bearing device capable of ensuring sealability by a floating seal, and dispensing with an additional supply of a lubricant over a long period of time, and a construction machine equipped with the same. A bearing device includes a large-diameter section that is provided on a shaft and regulates an axial position of a collar relative to the shaft. The bearing device has a bearing that rotatably retains the shaft at a position outside of a boss section, and has a cylindrical bearing member opposed to the opposing section of the collar at one end. The bearing device includes a floating seal for sealing a lubricant which is sandwiched between the opposing section of the collar and the one end of the bearing member. The bearing device includes a mounting member mounted to the end of the shaft from the other end side of the bearing member and configured to regulate the axial position of the bearing relative to the shaft.
