Tool for extracting a bearing, especially intended for roller skates or

Abstract

A tool adapted for the extraction of a bearing from a wheel, especially from a skate of the in-line type, the wheel having a concentric cage, adapted to house at least one bearing having an outer frontal face. The bearing has an outer ring and an inner ring, spaced from one another via bearing members such as spherical balls. The tool has a manual gripping member or handle having an end that is extended by an end piece/tip having a portion in the shape of a truncated cone having a large base having a diameter towards the end of the gripping member, and a small free base, that is extended radially via a coaxial annular portion, in the shape of a collar, having a diameter, the diameters of the large base of the truncated cone and of the collar in radial projection, being at least smaller than the diameter of the inner ring of the bearing, wherein the end of the handle has at least one abutment surface, forming a shoulder that is greater than the diameter of the inner ring, the end being adapted to take support against the external frontal face of the bearing, the abutment surface being spaced from the collar by a distance corresponding to the positioning of the collar beyond the rear plane of the inner ring, so as to grip it by exerting a tipping motion on the handle and thereby on the end piece/tip.
