DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial application field) The present invention is particularly applicable to a bearing for a rotating anode for an X-ray tube, which cannot be lubricated with oil or grease under high vacuum, high speed and high temperature conditions. The present invention relates to a solid lubricated ball bearing which is used and functions effectively.

(Prior Art) Conventionally known solid lubricated ball bearings for this type of application include, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-270826, an outer ring groove, an inner ring groove and a ball of a bearing. It is known to have a soft metal coating and a cage having a solid lubricant.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, since the bearing is lubricated with a film of a fixed lubricant as in the above-mentioned prior art bearing, the slip between the ball and the outer and inner ring grooves is smaller than that of oil or grease lubrication. High coefficient of friction (for example, 0.05 for oil and grease, 0.4 for silver, 0.2 for lead)
5) In addition, since solid lubricant does not uniformly reach the groove surfaces of the outer ring and the inner ring, and is unevenly distributed, causing minute irregularities on the groove surfaces of the outer ring and the inner ring, the balls rolling on the groove surfaces during rotation are circumferential. Direction 1
The revolution speed varies during rotation.

As a result, an excessive force of tension or compression acts in the circumferential direction of the cage, and there is a risk of the cage being damaged. When the cage is broken, there is a problem that the broken cage piece is caught between the outer and inner race grooves and the ball, and the bearing does not rotate.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In a ball bearing using a solid lubricant having a ball between a raceway groove of an outer ring and a raceway groove of an inner ring, and wherein the ball is held and guided by a retainer, The retainer is divided into a plurality of pieces on a circumference, and the divided retainer pieces are at least one.
One or more balls are completely held and guided. Further, the dividing position of the cage is a pocket portion for holding and guiding the ball.
Further, the retainer pieces of the gap Δh divided into circumferentially plurality are those of larger construction than the gap Δr of the difference between the cage pocket diameter r 1 and ball diameter r 2.

(Operation) Thus, in the solid lubricated ball bearing of the present invention,
By dividing the cage into a plurality of pieces on the circumference, the number of balls to be completely held in the cage pocket is less than about 1/2 of the total number of ball bearings in the cage piece. The probability of holding different balls is small, and the force acting in the circumferential direction of the retainer piece is reduced.

In addition, since the cage is divided at the cage pocket portion, not at the column, the strength of the cage can be kept substantially the same as that of the cage before the division.

(Embodiment) Next, the present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment of a solid lubricated ball bearing shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. In the drawings, 1 is an outer ring, 2 is an inner ring, 3a, 3b,. Indicates a ball, and 4 indicates a retainer. The retainer 4 is divided and incorporated at the retainer pocket portions at the balls 3a, 3b and 3g on the circumference.
The three retainer pieces 41, 42, 43 divided into balls 3b, 3c and 3e, 3
f, and 3h, 3i each completely holds two balls.

The solid lubricant is coated on the groove surfaces 11 and 21 of the outer ring and the inner ring as well as on the ball surface as 31.

While the conventional ball bearing cage holds nine balls 3a, 3b,... 3i, the cage member 4 of the present invention is divided.
1, 42 and 43 each hold two balls.

Consider an example in which the revolution speed of the ball changes during one rotation in the circumferential direction in this state. Assuming now that the revolving speed of a certain ball is U, if the ball 3e advances to ΔU and the ball 31 delays by ΔU with respect to the certain ball revolving speed U, the speed difference is 2ΔU in the conventional cage. And the amount of strain acting in the circumferential direction of the cage becomes large. In the embodiment of the present invention, the ball 3e and
3i is held by the separated retainer pieces 42 and 43, so that the revolving speed U of the balls 3e and 3i in both the retainer pieces 42 and 43.
, The speed difference acting on the retainer pieces 42, 43 in the circumferential direction is reduced. Therefore, the force acting on the ball cage is reduced.

Also, compared to the retainer piece 41 which revolves at a constant speed, the ball 3e
The retainer piece 42 that revolves quickly by the ball 31 and the retainer piece 43 that revolves slowly by the ball 31 are divided at the ball 3g.

Cage clearance Δh between divided cage pieces 42 and 43
It is not contact with each other and the cage pocket diameter r 1 and ball diameter r 2 retainer piece 42 which is divided so is larger than the cage pocket clearance Δr represented by the difference between the 43. Therefore, the retainer piece divided into a plurality of pieces on the circumference does not receive the circumferential force from the other divided retainer pieces.

Therefore, the cage is not broken due to a small circumferential force acting on the cage. Also, since the rotational force acting on the cage pocket surface of the ball is reduced, the friction between the ball and the sliding surface of the cage pocket is reduced.

FIG. 2 shows one side of the split retainer piece.
Since the position of the division is divided not by the pillar but by the cage pocket portion, the strength of the divided cage can be kept substantially the same as that of the cage before the division.

Although the number of divisions of the cage is set to three places on the circumference in the embodiment, the number of divisions may be two or more on the circumference. The retainer piece only needs to completely hold and guide at least one or more balls.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, the following effects are obtained as described above. That is, in a solid lubricated ball bearing, even if a change occurs in the revolving speed of the ball because the cage is divided into a plurality of pieces on the circumference, the probability that the retainer piece holds a ball having a different revolving speed is reduced, The circumferential force acting on the retainer is reduced.
Therefore, the cage is not damaged, and the generation of cage fragments caused by the damage and the increase in friction due to the bite are prevented. Further, since the cage is divided at the pocket portion, the strength of the cage can be substantially the same as that of the cage before the division. Also, the clearance between the divided cage pieces is larger than the gap between the cage pocket diameter and the ball diameter. The friction between the ball and the sliding surface of the cage pocket is reduced by reducing the rotational force acting on the ball.

As described above, the durability of the ball bearing using the fixed lubricant can be improved.
