Abstract
Abstract The double-row bearing assembly with axially split inner and outer barrel rings has at least one pair of corresponding barrel rings and is connected by means of a fastening member in a form-locking manner. At least one spacer member is provided between a pair of corresponding barrel rings which are prevented from moving axially outward by the form-locking connection provided by the rolling elements. The spacer is provided with projections pointing in both axial directions, which cooperate with the associated barrel rings to provide a positive form-locking connection in the radial direction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
130 words
Roller bearing assembly comprising a pair of inner ring members and a pair of outer ring members, radially spaced to define bearing spaces therebetween, the rings of each pair having peripherally extending confronting surfaces faced radially toward said bearing spaces, a fastening member connecting one pair of said rings, at least one rigid spacer element disposed between axial end faces of the other pair of rings, and roller elements preventing axially outward movement of said other pair of rings, said spacer having axial projections cooperatively confronting and engaging one pair of said confronting surfaces of said one pair of rings to provide a positive form locking connection in the radial direction, said fastening member and spacer being disposed radially within the inner and outer peripheral surfaces of said bearing assembly.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
130 words
Roller bearing assembly comprising a pair of inner ring members and a pair of outer ring members, radially spaced to define bearing spaces therebetween, the rings of each pair having peripherally extending confronting surfaces faced radially toward said bearing spaces, a fastening member connecting one pair of said rings, at least one rigid spacer element disposed between axial end faces of the other pair of rings, and roller elements preventing axially outward movement of said other pair of rings, said spacer having axial projections cooperatively confronting and engaging one pair of said confronting surfaces of said one pair of rings to provide a positive form locking connection in the radial direction, said fastening member and spacer being disposed radially within the inner and outer peripheral surfaces of said bearing assembly.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
Roller bearing assembly according to claim 1, characterized in that the spacer is designed as a single piece and has a T-shaped profile with profile sections extending on both sides into the bearing spaces.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
42 words
Roller bearing assembly according to claim 1, characterized in that the spacer has a rectangular profile and is provided with at least three axial holes distributed around the periphery with pins inserted therein, which project on both sides into the bearing spaces.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
40 words
Roller bearing assembly according to claim 1, characterized in that the spacer has a rectangular profile and a sleeve frictionally connected to said spacer, edges of said sleeve extending axially on both sides of said spacer into the bearing spaces.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
Roller bearing assembly according to claim 4, characterized in that the edges of the sleeve are bent over like flanges to rest against end surfaces of the spacer ring.
