Abstract
Abstract A circumferential groove is provided in the inner periphery of a bearing housing so as to be opposed to a circumferential groove provided in the outer periphery off the raceway of an outer race. The elastic tie bar is fixed in the circumferential grooves opposed to each other, astriding both, and the bearing is mounted in the housing, its position fixed thereby. An opening is provided in part of the circumferential groove in the outer race to communicate with the bearing interior, and through this opening an end of the tie bar is revealed in the bearing interior.
