Patent ID: 8556519

Claim:
A radial roller bearing, comprising: an outer bearing ring having an inner groove raceway; an inner bearing ring having an outer groove raceway; a plastic bearing cage having two substantially symmetrical axially divided cage pocket halves with longitudinal webs and complementary connecting elements opposing each other on dividing faces of the cage pocket halves, the cage pocket halves being assembled positively, non-positively or with a material-to-material fit by the complementary connecting elements forming a plurality of cage pockets; a plurality of ball rollers, which roil between the outer bearing ring and the inner bearing ring in the inner groove raceway and the outer groove raceway, having two side faces that are flattened symmetrically from a basic ball shape with axial tilting clearances for automatic orientation to a bearing contact angle via low-friction linear contacts between the side faces and the longitudinal webs of the cage which lie opposite axial tilting clearances, the ball rollers being arranged parallel to one another and being held uniformly spaced in a circumferential direction by the cage; and compensator webs which are integrally formed on the inner sides of the longitudinal webs and are wedge-shaped as viewed in cross-section, each of the compensator webs extend over an entire diameter of respective side faces of the ball rollers, wherein linear contacts between the side faces of the ball rollers and the longitudinal webs of the cage pockets are formed by the compensator webs.
