An information terminal is configured to extract a predetermined frequency band from a waveform of a signal of a machine component detected by a vibration sensor, to compare an analyzed frequency component and a damaging frequency resulting from a damage of the machine component, and to diagnose abnormality of the machine component. The information terminal includes a database in which the damaging frequency resulting from the damage of the machine component is preserved as a converted damaging frequency obtained by converting the damaging frequency on a basis of a predetermined rotating speed of the machine component. The damaging frequency is provided by calculating the converted damaging frequency in the database by using an actual rotating speed of the machine component. Accordingly, it is possible to keep specifications of a machine component confidential without preserving the specifications of the machine component.

A tapered roller bearing improves durability during a state of insufficient lubrication by sufficiently lengthening the time until rotation becomes impossible due to seizure. Oil retaining concave sections, recessed outward in the radial direction, are formed in portions on the inner circumferential surface of a large-diameter rim section of the retainer whose phase in the circumferential direction coincides with the pockets. A portion of the bottom surface of each of the oil retaining concave sections, open to the inside surface of the pocket, face a concave section formed in an end surface on the large-diameter side of tapered roller that is held inside the pocket. When lubrication becomes insufficient, oil remaining in the concave sections is effectively used for lubricating areas of sliding contact between the end surfaces on the large-diameter side and the inside surface in the axial direction of a large-diameter side flange section.
