A bearing apparatus includes a rolling bearing (16) having an outer ring (16a), an inner ring (16b), and rolling elements (16c) disposed between the inner ring (16b) and the outer ring (16a), a temperature sensor (TS) for measuring an internal temperature of the rolling bearing and a lubrication unit (22). The lubrication unit supplies lubricating oil in a quantity corresponding to the temperature detected by the temperature sensor, to the rolling bearing. With this configuration, it is feasible to provide the bearing apparatus capable of ensuring a sufficiently long life under the condition of high-speed rotations. The bearing apparatus is suitable for use in a spindle for a machine tool. |
