Tapered roller bearing

A tapered roller bearing comprising:

• at least one conical outer raceway, at least one conical inner raceway and having tapered rollers which are arranged radially between the raceways and about the longitudinal center axis of the tapered roller bearing, the tapered rollers having a conical first circumferential face for an operative connection radially to the outside in rolling contact with the inner raceway and for an operative connection radially to the inside in rolling contact with the outer raceway, and the center lines of the tapered rollers intersecting at a common point of intersection on the longitudinal center axis, and imaginary extensions
• of first generatrices of the first circumferential face of the tapered roller intersecting at a common first vertex which is remote from the longitudinal center axis,
• of second generatrices of a second circumferential face of the inner raceway intersecting at a common second vertex on the longitudinal center axis,
• of third generatrices of a third circumferential face of the outer raceway intersecting at a common third vertex on the longitudinal center axis,
• and the second vertex and the third vertex being spaced apart from one another on the longitudinal center axis and enclosing the point of intersection axially between them.
