PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a pulley device having high cost efficiency in manufacturing and sufficient mechanical characteristics, including a case when an inner ring and an outer ring are comparatively thin.SOLUTION: A pulley device 2 for a chain or a belt includes two rolling bearings 20A, 20B, each having an inner ring 22A, 22B, an outer ring 24A, 24B rotatable relative to the inner ring around a shared central axis X2, a row of rolling elements 26A, 26B mounted in a rolling chamber 28A, 28B defined between the inner ring and the outer ring, and means 16, 50, 60 for exerting an axial load E, R parallel to the shared central axis X2 onto the outer rings 24A, 24B. The axial load urges the outer rings 24A, 24B one toward the other or opposite each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
