Abstract

Improvements relative to roller bearings in cross-race, whose bearings are of the type of rollers conified in cross-race, forming part of said bearings an assembly of autonomous content constituted by an outer track element, rollers and cage comprising an outer track element of a single piece with conical travel surfaces formed by the sides of a V-shaped groove thereof, two sets of opposite inclined tapered rollers, and a one-piece cage of annular shape and decreasing straight section with the apex part directed radially inward, ie, towards the center, said cage having on opposite slanted sides two sets of spaced open bags accommodating said rolls, each bag extending from an inclined side face of the cage to the outer periphery thereby providing a lateral entrance open on the said side face and an open mouth on the surface outer periphery, and each bag being closed at its inner end by a base wall on the opposite side of the cage, said assembly being characterized by the fact that said lateral entrance to each of the bags has a width that, in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the roller contained within the bag, is slightly smaller than the diameter of said roller considered in the same plane, so that all the rollers are prevented from getting to move laterally out of their bags.
