Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bearings, in particular to a bearing retainer and a bearing having the bearing retainer. Background Art
[0002] The cage of the bearing ball is an indispensable component of the bearing. The cage ensures the accurate positioning of the ball, prevents it from being displaced or collided, and ensures the normal operation of the bearing. Secondly, by providing stable support for the ball, the cage improves the stability of the bearing, reduces the swing and vibration during high-speed rotation, and thus enhances the reliability of the bearing. In addition, the design of the cage also affects the distribution of lubricants in the bearing. The appropriate structure can promote the uniform distribution of lubricants, reduce friction and wear, and extend the life of the bearing. The structure of the cage is diverse, including riveting, groove, stamping and button types, each of which has its applicable scenarios and characteristics. However, at this stage, when the cage is assembled between the inner and outer rings of the bearing, a dust cover will be added to eliminate the gap between the inner and outer rings. At this time, the dust cover and the cage are two independent parts and are not connected. This makes a tiny gap or gap between the dust cover and the cage, allowing external pollutants, dust or liquids to penetrate into the bearing and cover the balls, thereby affecting the normal operation and life of the bearing.
