Abstract:
A ball bearing assembly includes at least two units being axially coupled together to allow at least one set of plural spherical balls adapted to be installed between at least one pair of two adjacent units of the at least two units.

Claim (Index 18):
A ball bearing assembly, comprising:\n a casing being a hollow tube with an axial cavity inside; and a bearing set including at least two units being axially coupled together to allow at least one set of plural spherical balls adapted to be installed between at least one pair of two adjacent units of the at least two units, each unit including two ends forming two connection portions, at least one of the two connection portions being axially connected with an adjacent unit of the at least two units, a circular central hole axially running through the two connection portions, and an outer periphery of the unit forming a mounting portion which is formed in a shape and size mating the cavity so that the bearing set can be press-fitted into and integrated with the casing; wherein at least one set of plural hemispherical seats is concaved on the at least one of the two connection portions concentric to the central hole to allow each ball inside the seat adapted to be partially protruded from the central hole, at least one set of plural abutting seats being formed by abutting two sets of plural seats defined in two adjacent connection portions between the at least one pair of two adjacent units to allow the at least one set of plural balls to be disposed therein, each seat with curvature conforming to that of the ball, at least one groove and at least one set of plural notches being indented respectively on at least one of the two adjacent connection portions between the at least one pair of two adjacent units, the at least one groove forming at least one storage chamber to store lubricating media therein, the at least one set of plural notches communicating with the at least one set of plural seats and the at least one groove and forming at least one set of plural passages to communicate with the at least one set of plural abutting seats and the at least one storage chamber, so that the ball bearing assembly is adapted to be run a rotatable shaft through protruding surfaces of the at least one set of plural balls.
