Abstract
A roller bearing ring having at least one raceway. The raceway provides a first and a second axial end and a diameter of the first axial end and a diameter of the second axial end are either both greater than the mean diameter of the raceway or both less than the mean diameter of the raceway. The roller bearing ring includes a projection, which is on the same side of the bearing ring as the raceway and which limits the raceway without being a part of the raceway.
Claims10
A roller bearing ring comprising:
- at least one raceway, wherein the raceway comprises a first and a second axial end and a diameter of the first axial end and a diameter of the second axial end are either both greater than the mean diameter of the raceway or both less than the mean diameter of the raceway, and wherein
- the roller bearing ring comprises a projection, which is on the same side of the bearing ring as the raceway and which limits the raceway without being a part of the raceway.
The roller bearing ring according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the part of the raceway, which is contained in an axial section through the roller bearing ring, has the form of a circular arc, and preferably the radius of the circular arc is greater than a maximal distance of a point of the circular arc to a rotational axis of the roller bearing ring.
A procedure for dismounting a roller bearing, in particular a roller bearing comprising:
- providing roller bearing ring having at least one raceway, wherein the raceway comprises a first and a second axial end and a diameter of the first axial end and a diameter of the second axial end are either both greater than the mean diameter of the raceway or both less than the mean diameter of the raceway, and wherein the roller bearing ring comprises a projection, which is on the same side of the bearing ring as the raceway and which limits the raceway without being a part of the raceway, wherein
- the roller bearing ring is an outer ring or an inner ring,
- wherein roller elements of the roller bearing contact the raceway of the inner ring and the raceway of the outer ring, wherein
- a first force is applied to the outer ring and a second force is applied to the inner ring, wherein the first and the second force are opposed to each other and at least one of the rolling elements of the roller bearing contacts a projection of the outer ring, which is adjacent to the raceway of the outer ring, and wherein
- the at least one rolling element contacts a projection of the inner ring, which is adjacent of the raceway of the inner ring.
