Patent ID: 7819589

Claim:
A radial rolling bearing, comprising: an outer bearing ring; an inner bearing ring; a number of rolling bodies which are arranged between the outer bearing ring and the inner bearing ring and which are guided at uniform distances from one another by means of a bearing cage; groove-shaped rolling body raceways on an inside of the outer bearing ring and an outside of the inner bearing ring; the rolling bodies being spherical disks with two side faces flattened symmetrically from a basic spherical shape and arranged parallel to one another, wherein the radial rolling bearing has both an enlarged contact area of the spherical disks with the rolling body raceways and an increased number of rolling bodies, a width of the spherical disks between the side faces being greater than a distance between the inside of the outer bearing ring and the outside of the inner bearing ring, but being equal to or smaller than a width of the rolling body raceways, and an insertion of the spherical disks into the radial rolling bearing takes place by an eccentric mounting method, with the spherical disks being introduced transversely into the rolling body raceways and bearing with the side faces against one another, wherein the width of the spherical disks between the side faces amounts to at least 70% and the distance between the inside of the outer bearing ring and the outside of the inner bearing ring to only about 64% of a diameter of a basic spherical shape of the spherical disks, and wherein a depth of the rolling body raceway in the inside of the outer bearing ring amounts to about 17% and a death of the rolling body raceway in the outside of the inner bearing ring to about 19% of the diameter of the basic spherical shape of the spherical disks.
