Abstract
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.
