Abstract
A rolling bearing cage having a through slit at one point of its periphery, characterized in that at least one projection extends from one of the cage ends defining the slit and engages in recesses at the other cage end so that the two cage ends are fixed relative to each other in both radial directions as well as in both axial directions but are able to move relative to each other in the peripheral direction.
Claims4
A rolling bearing cage having a through slit at one point of its periphery, in which cage at least one projection extends from one of the cage ends defining the slit and engages in recesses at the other cage end so that the two cage ends are fixed relative to each other in both radial directions as well as in both axial directions, characterized in that the recesses are in the from of grooves which extend in the peripheral direction and interlock with the projections, the grooves being longer in the peripheral direction than the projections and being divided into two sections of different length by transverse cross bars of smaller height than the groove depth.
A rolling bearing cage having a through slit at one point of its pheriphery, in which cage at least one projection extends from one of the cage ends defining the slit and engages in recesses at the other cage end so that the two cage ends are fixed relative to each other in both radial directions as well as in both axial directions, characterized in that the recesses are in the form of grooves which extend in the peripheral direction and interlock with the projections, the grooves being longer in the peripheral direction than the projections and being divided into two sections of different length by transverse cross bars of smaller height than the groove depth, and ledges projecting in the peripheral direction are integrally formed at one cage end and engage in sparings provided at the other cage end, the projections and the grooves which are longer than the projections, being provided in the mutually facing end faces of the ledges and the sparings respectively.
