Abstract
In a tapered roller bearing, a cage includes a plurality of trapezoidal pockets and the pockets accommodate and hold a plurality of rollers. A notch having a width is provided in a post on a smaller width side of the pocket of the cage from a boundary between a smaller annular portion and a post toward a larger annular portion. Lubricating oil which flows from an inner diameter side of the cage toward an inner ring is quickly discharged through the notch toward an outer ring on an outer diameter side. A distance from an outermost surface of at least any one of the outer ring and the inner ring of the roller and a plurality of rollers to a bottom of a nitrogen enriched layer is equal to or longer than 0.2 mm. A rolling surface of the roller is provided with a logarithmic crowning profile.
