Abstract
A rolling bearing cage includes: multiple rod members each of which is provided between adjacent two of multiple rolling elements that are arranged in a circumferential direction of a rolling bearing; and multiple coupling members each of which couples corresponding two of the rod members, which are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction. Each of the coupling members is configured to be pivotable about an axis of a corresponding one of the rod members, which is connected to the coupling member, the axis extending in a longitudinal direction of the rod member, such that a relative angle between corresponding two of the coupling members, which are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, is adjustable.
