Asymmetric angular contact bearing

摘要

An asymmetric angular contact bearing comprises an inner ring (2) and an outer ring (3) each defining a raceway, at least one ring being provided with a high shoulder (6) and a low shoulder (7) which border the raceway of said ring, as well as a series of rolling elements (8) which are in rolling contact with the raceways. The low shoulder is provided with a circumferential groove (9), a ring member (10) being accommodated in said groove (9) for contacting the rolling elements (8).
