Abstract

A device for damping a rolling bearing includes a support and a radially flexible cage. The cage includes a ring provided in order to be mounted on the periphery of a rolling bearing. The radial flexibility of this cage results from the structure thereof which is perforated by oblique posts connecting the ring to an attachment annulus of this cage. The support includes a plurality of teeth each extending radially through a respective inter-post opening of the cage. The ring and the support form, radially between one another, a fluid damping cavity suitable for forming a compressed fluid film. The device allows a controlled radial movement of the ring, the latter being radially limited by the support, while having a limited footprint.
