Abstract
The invention relates to a rolling-element bearing unit for rotatably bearing two components, nested into each other, which rotate about separate rotational axes that are at an angle to each other, especially the roll core and roll sleeve of a width stretching roll for a paper machine. The rolling-element bearing unit according to the invention comprises an outer rolling-element bearing for rotationally bearing the outer component, a pivoting bearing carrying the outer rolling-element bearing and allowing adjustment of the angle of the outer rolling-element bearing, an angularly adjustable inner rolling-element bearing for rotationally bearing the inner component, and an eccentric which consist of an inner and an outer eccentric ring via which eccentric rings the centers of the two rolling-element bearings can be adjusted in relation to each other.
