[0036] Further, the rolling elements 3 are two rows of cylindrical rollers; the two rows of cylindrical rollers are provided with a retainer 5.

[0037] Based on the above technical scheme, the utility model uses the shell 1 to replace the bearing outer ring, and the shaft 2 to replace the bearing inner ring, thereby forming a whole in the equipment, reducing the error between the shell 1, the rolling elements 3 and the shaft 2 in the assembly process, ensuring the runout accuracy of the equipment in the running process and improving the carrying capacity of the equipment.

[0038] Further, the shell 1 is provided with an outer raceway of the steel ball 4; the shaft 2 is provided with an inner raceway of the steel ball 4.

[0039] Further, a sealing groove 8 is formed between the shell 1 far from the rolling elements 3 and the shaft 2; the sealing groove 8 is provided with a sealing ring.

[0040] Further, the ball loading hole 6 is an L-shaped through hole connected from the end surface of the shaft 2 to the inner raceway of the steel ball 4; the ball loading hole 6 is composed of a radial hole 12 and an axial hole 11; the diameter of the axial hole 11 is greater than the diameter of the radial hole 12.

[0041] Based on the above technical scheme, the steel ball 4 is loaded from the ball loading hole 6 to the space between the shell 1 and the shaft 2, thereby realizing the self-locking effect of the shaft 2 bearing, positioning the shell 1 and the shaft 2 and preventing the shaft 2 from axially sliding relative to the shell 1.

[0042] Further, the plug comprises a flat plug 10, a ball plug 9 and a long plug 7; the ball plug 9 is arranged on the side close to the steel ball 4; one end of the flat plug 10 is in contact with the ball plug 9; the other end of the flat plug 10 is in contact with the long plug 7.

[0051] Step five: install the ball plug and the flat plug; install the hemisphere of the ball plug and the circular cone of the flat plug into the ball installing hole, push the ball plug and the flat plug to the end of the axial hole by the long plug, rotate the shaft to make the ball plug and the flat plug fall into the radial hole in turn, and finally the hemisphere of the ball plug contacts the steel ball, and one end of the flat plug contacts the ball plug;

[0052] Step six: install the long plug, install the circular cone of the long plug into the ball installing hole, and then push the long plug to the end of the axial hole, so that the installed long plug contacts the other end of the flat plug, and finally the flat plug is plugged;
