Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the generation of cutting into the inner diameter face of a bearing housing at the opening edge part of an outer wheel at the press- fitting time so as to dispense with the circumferential alignment of a retainer. CONSTITUTION:The peripheral wall of an outer wheel 1 is partially formed into a flat plate part 2 along the whole length in the axial direction, and the flat plate part 2 is provided with an opening 3. A retainer 4 is formed into single-split ring shape with a split part 4a provided in the same circumferential position as the flat plate part 2 of the outer wheel 1, and is to be of an outer wheel guide form. Rollers 5 are directly brought into rolling contact with a shaft. At the time of manufacture, the outer wheel 1 is formed by processing a thin steel plate into a cylindrical shape by deep drawing, then the flat plate part 2 is formed by press working, and the opening part 3 is formed at the flat plate 2 by punching.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a needle roller bearing, an opening may be provided in an outer ring for supplying a lubricant or inserting a shaft engaging member. For example, in a needle roller bearing used for a bottom roller at a location reaching a false twist spindle of a textile machine, an outer ring is provided with an opening for supplying a lubricant.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a needle roller bearing having an opening in the outer ring. The outer ring 31 is a shell-shaped one obtained by deep drawing a thin steel plate, and a cage 33 holding rollers 32 is incorporated therein. The roller 32 directly contacts the shaft 37. The outer ring 31 has an opening 36 corresponding to the hole 35 of the bearing box 34, and the retainer 33 is formed as a split ring having a split portion 33a at the same circumferential position as the opening 36. These holes 35, openings 36, and split portions 33
An engaging member (not shown) that engages with the recess of the shaft 37 is inserted through a.

In the bearing having the outer ring 31 having the shell shape as described above, the outer ring 31 is fixed to the bearing box 34 by press fitting. However, if the opening 36 is formed in the outer ring 31, for example, when the bearing is press-fitted in the direction indicated by the arrow a in the figure, the sharp edge portion 36a of the opening 36 is formed.
Therefore, the inner surface of the bearing box 34 may be cut, and the cutting dust may enter the bearing to cause an obstacle.

The outer ring 31 is made of a steel plate as described above, whereas the bearing box 34 is often made of aluminum for weight reduction or the like. Even if it is made of iron, it is not heat-treated. Therefore, the above-mentioned problem of cutting is likely to occur due to the difference in hardness. Further, the opening 36 of the outer ring 36 is generally formed by punching, and therefore the edge portion 3 is formed.
Burrs and the like may occur on 6a, which also easily causes the above-mentioned cutting problem. Therefore, the edge portion 36a is chamfered, but the number of processing steps is increased and the productivity is deteriorated.

Further, in the needle roller bearing in which the cage 33 is provided with the split portion 33a for inserting the engaging member as in the example of FIG. 3, the opening 36 of the outer ring 33 and the circumferential position of the split portion 33a coincide with each other. However, since the retainer 33 is rotatable within the outer ring 31, the position of the split portion 33a is not fixed when the bearing is assembled. Therefore, when the engaging member is assembled through the opening 36, the position of the split portion 33 of the retainer 33 is aligned, but this alignment work must be performed through the hole 35, and therefore the workability is poor and the position is poor. There is a problem that it takes time for the matching work.

According to the structure of the present invention, the opening of the outer ring is formed in the flat plate portion provided on the peripheral wall of the outer ring. No cutting occurs. Further, since the flat plate portion is formed over the entire length in the axial direction and protrudes inward of the outer ring, the split portion of the retainer hits the flat plate portion and does not rotate in the outer ring. Therefore, it is not necessary to align the cage after it is assembled.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In this needle roller bearing A, a part of the peripheral wall of the shell-shaped outer ring 1 is formed in a flat plate portion 2 along the entire axial length, and an opening 3 that is slightly wider than the flat plate portion 2 is formed in the flat plate portion 2.
Is provided. The flat plate portion 2 is formed so that its cross section is a chord of a part of an arc in the circumference of the outer ring 1.

In manufacturing the bearing A, the outer ring 1 is obtained by processing a thin steel plate into a cylindrical shape by deep drawing, pressing the flat plate portion 2, and punching an opening 4 in the flat plate portion 2. The punching direction of the opening 4 is generally from the inner surface to the outer surface. Therefore, since the burr protrudes toward the outer diameter surface side of the bearing, the conventional burr removal process is performed.
Then, as described later, the burr removal is unnecessary.

According to the bearing A having this structure, the flat plate portion 2 is formed in the outer ring 1 and the opening 3 is formed in the flat plate portion 2.
As can be seen from the figure, the edge portion 3a of the opening 3 has the bearing box 7
Does not come into contact with the inner diameter surface 7a. Therefore, there is no problem of cutting the inner diameter surface 7a of the bearing housing 7 by the edge portion 3a of the opening 3 when the outer ring 1 is press-fitted. Therefore, even if burrs are projected on the edge portion 3a, it is not necessary to process the burr removal.

Further, since the flat plate portion 2 is formed in the entire length in the axial direction and protrudes inward of the outer ring 1, as shown in FIG. 4 does not rotate. That is, the cage 4 includes the split portion 4a.
Rotates only up to a position where the abuts the side edge 2a of the flat plate portion 2. Therefore, after assembling the cage 4 into the outer ring 1,
It becomes unnecessary to perform the alignment for aligning the split portion 4a with the opening 3. In this way, since the troublesome positioning work which is conventionally required is not necessary, the workability of assembling the bearing A is significantly improved.

Further, according to this manufacturing method, the outer ring 1 is formed into a cylindrical shape, the flat plate portion 2 is pressed, and then the opening 3 is formed. Therefore, the outer ring 1 and the opening 3 can be easily formed. , And the opening 3 is formed by pressing the flat plate portion 2
Does not deform. Moreover, since the flat plate portion 2 is formed over the entire length of the outer ring 1, the flat plate portion 2 can be easily and accurately formed by pressing.
