Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rolling bearing cage with pockets for receiving the rolling elements, in which they are held by molded holding projections, the holding projections being made elastic by recesses or the like.
  • roller bearing cages known according to the preamble of claim 1 (German utility model No. 1 910 797), which can be snapped onto the balls without great effort.
  • these known cages easily jump out of the bearing under unfavorable loads, so that the bearing can be destroyed.
  • the invention seeks to remedy this.
  • the invention as characterized in the claims, solves the problem of creating a rolling bearing cage of the type described above, in which the rolling elements are easily inserted into the cage pockets, but are very difficult to dismantle again.
  • the snap cage 1 shown in Fig. 1 is made of plastic and has hollow spherical pockets 2 for receiving the balls 3, which are provided with retaining projections 4 at the open ends.
  • the holding projections 4 are designed to be elastic, so that the cage 1 can be snapped onto the balls 3 without difficulty. So that the cage 1 does not jump out of the bearing even under unfavorable loads, pegs 5 are provided between the holding projections 4 of two adjacent cage pockets 2 and are provided with an upset head part 6 after snapping the cage 1 onto the balls 3 with the edge 7 on the outside against the holding projections 4.
  • the holding projections 4 are fixed in their position and the cage 1 falls out of the Bearings safely avoided. It is expedient not to deform the head part 6 until it rests on the holding projections 4 so that the balls 3 cannot be clamped in the cage pockets 2 when the head part 6 is compressed.
  • molded, radially outwardly projecting lugs 10 are provided next to each holding projection 9, which are deformed by ultrasound after the insertion of the cylindrical rollers 11 into the cage pockets, so that they are with their Free ends up to close to the holding projections 9 or rest on the outside of the holding projections 9 and support them.
  • the snap cage 12 starting from the end faces at the web ends, is provided with axially extending slots 13 which separate the holding projections 14 from one another.
  • projections 15 are formed out of the web projections and bent so that a play remains between their free ends or they abut with their free ends and support the holding projections 14. So that the cage 12 becomes more elastic, it is also advantageous to provide recesses 16 starting from the cage back, which can also be closed again by suitable measures after the installation of the cage 12.
  • the cage 17 according to FIG. 5 shows an embodiment which is particularly suitable for snap cages made of glass fiber reinforced plastic is suitable.
  • the cage webs are provided with particularly deep incisions 18 in this embodiment, so that the retaining projections 19 of the cage made of a relatively hard plastic material can spring out when snapped onto the balls 3.
  • two projections 20 are arranged, which, after installation of the cage 17, are deformed by ultrasound into the corresponding incisions 18 until there is only a slight play between their ends or until their ends 21 abut one another. In this way, the retaining projections 19 are prevented from B e-movement in the circumferential direction and securely held, the cage in the bearing.
