A roller bearing (e.g., a cross taper roller bearing) includes an outer ring, an inner ring and rolling elements (e.g., taper rollers) located between the inner and outer rings. The rolling elements are kept at a distance by a cage formed from a number of individual cage segments. Each cage segment has two opposing guide sections for one of the rolling elements to at least partially encompass the rolling element on both sides. In addition, for the rolling elements bordering the one rolling element, the cage segment has guide sections which, in interaction with a corresponding guide section of an adjacent cage segment, at least partially encompass the bordering rolling elements.

Roller bearing

A cylindrical roller bearing includes an outer bearing ring, an inner bearing ring and cylindrical rollers located between the outer and inner bearing rings. One of the rings has side rims forming an axial stop for the cylindrical rollers. The bearing ring on which the side rims are not provided is formed with at least one groove outside the axial extension of the cylindrical rollers. A ring of spring-elastic material is positioned in the groove to form an axial stop for the cylindrical rollers. The periphery of the ring has no interruptions. To improve the running behavior of the cylindrical roller bearing, the ring possesses a V-shaped cross-section with two legs.
