Abstract
A length of each pocket of a cage in a circumferential direction is smaller than the sum of an outer diameter of a roller and a free length of a coil spring. The cage can rotate relative to an inner ring having cam surfaces in accordance with revolution of the rollers in an overload-applied condition, and the cage can not rotate in a direction opposite to a direction of revolution of the rollers in the overload-applied condition.
