1. A cage for a crankshaft bearing or a connecting-rod bearing of an internal combustion engine or for a compressor, the cage comprising a plurality of receiving pockets for guiding bearing rolling elements and having an axial width,
wherein, the cage includes at least one first cage segment and at least one second cage segment, each cage segment having a segment axial width equal to the axial width of the cage and having a first end circumferentially spaced from a second end, the first cage segment first end being connected to the second cage segment second end by an interference fit, and the first cage segment second end being connected to the second cage segment first end by an interference fit, wherein the first cage segment first end includes at least one projection and the second cage segment second end includes at least complementary recess, the projection being received in the recess, wherein the first cage segment first end includes a first axial portion and a second axial portion, and wherein the at least one projection of the first cage segment comprises a radially inwardly facing projection on the first axial portion and a radially outwardly facing projection on the second axial portion, wherein the first axial portion extends axially inward from a first side of the first cage segment and the second axial portion extends axially inward from a second side of the first cage segment, wherein an axial width of the first axial portion is equal to an axial width of the second axial portion and equal to one half the axial width of the cage segment, and wherein the at least one projection of the first cage segment first end fills the complementary recess of the second cage segment second end. |
