Abstract

To provide a rotating support device for aircraft that can increase the axial load bearing capacity. [Solution] The rotating support device 1 for an aircraft comprises a first member 33, a second member 34, a plurality of first rolling elements 9, and a plurality of second rolling elements 10. The first member 33 has a first inner ring raceway 11 on its outer circumferential surface and a second outer ring raceway 12 on its inner circumferential surface. The second member 34 has a first outer ring raceway 13 on its inner circumferential surface and a second inner ring raceway 14 on its radially outward-facing circumferential surface. The first rolling elements 9 are positioned between the first inner ring raceway 11 and the first outer ring raceway 13, and the second rolling elements 10 are positioned between the second outer ring raceway 12 and the second inner ring raceway 14. Of the first member 33 and the second member 34, one is a stationary body 7 fixed to the aircraft frame, and the other is a rotating body 8 that rotates together with the propeller 2. The first rolling elements 9 and the second rolling elements 10 are provided with a back-to-back combination type contact angle and preload.
