The novel linear bearing comprises an outer ring, a
retainer and balls, the
retainer is installed in the outer ring, a first sealing ring is arranged in the outer ring, a first clamping groove is formed in the outer ring, the side edge of the first sealing ring is connected into the first clamping groove in a clamped mode, a second sealing ring is arranged in the outer ring, and a second clamping groove is formed in the outer ring. The
retainer is fixed between the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring, a circulating groove is formed in the side surface of the retainer, the balls are installed in the circulating groove, a step is arranged on the side edge of the outer ring, and the
diameter of the step is slightly smaller than that of the outer ring. The step part is inserted into a mounting hole or a mounting groove in a box-type sliding block or equipment, and then the whole outer ring enters, so that the mounting is convenient, the time is saved, the efficiency is improved, the performance is enhanced, the influence of external force is resisted, and the phenomena of outer ring deformation, overall looseness of the linear bearing and the like are avoided.
