Abstract:
The present invention provides a structure including an enveloping layer formed on one of a circular outer surface and/or a flat outer surface having irregularities, wherein the enveloping layer includes an outer circumferential surface layer formed by thermally fusing a thermoplastic elastomer.

Claim (Index 12):
A bearing comprising:\n an outer ring, and an enveloping layer formed on an outer circumferential surface of the outer ring, wherein the enveloping layer comprises\n a first material layer formed on the outer circumferential surface of the outer ring, and \n a second material layer which is a thermoplastic elastomer layer thermally bonded to an outer surface of the first material layer and is an outer circumferential surface layer forming an outer circumferential surface of the enveloping layer, \n the second material layer is made of a material which is softer than the first material layer, and \n the first material layer comprises an outer circumferential surface layer configured to cover the outer circumferential surface of the outer ring, and a pair of side surface layers connected to both axial sides of the outer circumferential surface layer and configured to cover both axial side surfaces of the outer ring.
