A holder has a protrusion which protrudes from a side surface at a side opposite in an axial direction with respect to a rolling element held in a pocket toward the side opposite in the axial direction. An oil supply hole which penetrates through the holder from the side surface to a surface at a side of the rolling element in the axial direction is formed in the holder. When the holder rotates, the protrusion guides oil into the oil supply hole, and the oil is introduced from the side surface of the holder to the surface on the side of the rolling element.

A rolling bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of rolling elements, and a cage. The cage includes an annular body, a plurality of cage prongs, and guide portions placed inward of the cage prongs in the radial direction of the cage such that the guide portions extend from a radially inner part of the annular body toward a second side in the axial direction of the cage, the guide portions being configured to position the cage by making contact with an inner ring raceway. The cage has a groove so as to connect pockets adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, the groove being configured such that lubricant is present in the groove and a groove width of the groove is increased in the radial direction in the center of the groove in the circumferential direction.

A rolling bearing includes: an inner ring; an outer ring; a plurality of balls provided between an inner ring raceway and an outer ring raceway; and an annular cage in which the balls are held at intervals in the circumferential direction of the cage. The cage includes an annular body, a plurality of first cage prongs, and a plurality of second cage prongs. A radially outer part of each of the first cage prongs includes a recessed portion. The recessed portion is constituted by a region surrounded by a first side wall surface, a second side wall surface, a bottom wall surface, and a third side wall surface.

Rolling bearing

A sealing device includes a seal member and a slinger. The slinger has a slinger fixing part, a first radial part, a first axial part, a second radial part, and a second axial part facing a seal fixing part of the seal member in a radial direction across a first clearance. The seal member has a large-diameter part facing, in an axial direction, an end of the second axial part on the other side in an axial direction across a second clearance. An outer circumferential surface of the large-diameter part and an outer circumferential surface of the second axial part are included in a flow passage surface of a continuous outside flow passage that extends in a straight line along the axial direction. The first clearance and the second clearance communicate with each other, and the sealing device has a labyrinth clearance including the first clearance and the second clearance.

Sealing device and rolling bearing device

A ball bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, and a cage that supports balls. At least one portion of each prong of the cage overlaps with an inner ring raceway surface in an axial direction and the entirety of the prongs do not overlap with a shoulder of the inner ring in the axial direction. A pocket of the cage overlaps with virtual conical planes that are parallel to a reference virtual conical plane including an inner ring nominal contact point and an outer ring nominal contact point, and that are part, on the other axial side, of both a virtual conical plane including an edge between the inner ring raceway surface and the shoulder of the inner ring and a virtual conical plane including an edge between the outer ring raceway surface and the outer ring counter-bored portion.

A rolling bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of balls, and a cage in which a plurality of pockets that accommodate the balls are formed along the circumferential direction. The cage is a snap cage that has an annular body provided on one side in an axial direction, and a plurality of prongs provided so as to extend from the annular body toward the other side in the axial direction. Spaces on the other side of the annular body in the axial direction and between the prongs which are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction serve as the pockets. A pocket surface of the pocket that faces the ball is a part of a spherical surface. The cage can contact the inner peripheral side of the outer ring for positioning in the radial direction.

A light-emitting device includes: a substrate having a principal surface which includes a resist film; a first light-emitting element line mounted above the principal surface; a second light-emitting element line mounted above the principal surface; a first sealing member which is provided on the resist film and seals the first light-emitting element line; and a second sealing member which is provided on the resist film and seals the second light-emitting element line. In the light-emitting device, a color of light which the first sealing member emits as a result of light emission of the first light-emitting element line is different from a color of light which the second sealing member emits as a result of light emission of the second light-emitting element line, and the principal surface includes a region between the first sealing member and the second sealing member in which the resist film is not formed.
