A toroidal roller bearing that provides an inner ring, an outer ring and a plurality of roller elements interposed in-between the inner and outer rings such that the rings rotate relative each other in relation to a rotational axle. The bearing is configured such that the inner ring and the outer ring are capable of being axially displaced and angularly misaligned relative each other in relation to the rotational axle. At least one of the inner or outer ring provides a recess in an axially extending section extending from one of its axial ends. The recess is arranged such that an axial gripping force can be generated onto the ring. In addition, the present disclosure provides a bearing arrangement that includes the bearing.

Toroidal roller bearing

A toroidal roller bearing, which comprises an outer ring, an inner ring and a plurality of roller elements interposed between the outer and inner rings, wherein the toroidal roller bearing allows for angular and axial displacement between the outer ring and the inner ring. The bearing includes a cage for holding the roller elements, wherein the cage provides an axial guiding feature for axially guiding the roller elements against at least one of the outer ring, inner ring and a separate element located outside the toroidal roller bearing.
