Abstract
A radial bearing for two parallel shafts whose direction of radial load is inclined 60.degree. to 75.degree. to the outside toward a line intersecting the two shaft axes comprising a pair of races with a spherical outer contour adjustably mounted in a common bearing housing, the said races being flattened at their facing points with a gap between the races whereby the axes of the races are so close together that their distance is less than the diameter of a race, the recess of the housing receiving the races having an inside width of at least the axial length of the races, one of said races being provided at the side opposite the flattened portion with two plane or slightly curved surfaces inclined to each other in the manner of a roof and running from the end faces of the race and protruding into the area of its crowned surface and the said housing being a unitary element provided in the area of one recess at one end face with an inlet groove corresponding to the cross-sectional profile of said race.
