Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reliably feed lubricating oil to a gap between the rolling body of a rolling bearing rotated at a high speed and inner and outer rings and a gap between the rolling body and a holder. SOLUTION: A main spindle device 1 for a machine tool is provided with a main spindle 5 rotationally supported in a main spindle housing 3 by a rolling bearing 7 having a rolling body arranged between inner and outer rings and a holder 23 to hold a rolling body. In a so formed main spindle device 1 having a machine tool, an annular groove 23a is formed in at least one end faces of the holder 23, and a lubricating oil feed hole 23b is formed to intercommunicate the annular groove 23 and a rolling body 7c. Lubricating oil from a lubricating oil feed source 9 is fed from lubricating oil feed nozzles 11c, 13c, and 15c through the annular groove 23a and the lubrication oil feed hole 23b.

2. Description of the Related Art Rolling bearings that support a rotating shaft are required to have good lubrication in recent years, particularly in the field of machine tools, as the speed of the rotating spindle increases. In order to satisfy this demand, various bearing lubrication devices have been conventionally proposed. For example, in a bearing lubrication mechanism for a spindle device disclosed in JP-A-6-264934, a notch is formed by partially notching one end surface of an inner ring of a rolling bearing, and a nozzle opening in the notch is formed. A lubricating oil is supplied to the nozzle via a lubricating oil supply passage formed in the main shaft housing of the main spindle device, and the lubricating oil is supplied from the nozzle to the notch of the inner ring. . In a lubricating device for a cylindrical roller bearing disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-176822, collars are provided at both ends of an inner ring, and a retainer for holding a cylindrical roller disposed between the inner and outer rings is guided by the collar. Lubricating oil is supplied from a nozzle facing between the collar and the retainer.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-26493
In the bearing lubrication mechanism disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4 (1999) -1999, the load capacity of the inner ring is reduced because one end of the inner ring is notched. Further, since both ends of the inner ring cannot be cut off, lubrication cannot be performed from both sides of the bearing. Therefore, the bearing is not suitable as a bearing aiming at a higher speed and a lubricating device therefor because the load capacity is reduced and sufficient lubrication cannot be expected. On the other hand, in the lubricating device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-176822, the gap between the retainer and the inner ring collar is very narrow because the retainer is guided by the inner ring collar. There is a problem that a sufficient lubricating oil supply cannot be secured as a bearing for the purpose of realization.

That is, the present invention relates to a rolling bearing having a rolling element disposed between an inner ring and an outer ring, and a retainer for holding the rolling element, wherein at least one of the retainers is provided. An annular groove is formed on the end face, a lubricating oil supply hole is formed so as to face the rolling element from the annular groove, and lubricating oil is supplied toward the rolling element through the annular groove and the lubricating oil supply hole. The gist of the rolling bearing is as follows.

The lubricating oil is supplied to the rolling bearing configured as described above from a nozzle opened at a small gap from the annular groove of the cage, so that the lubricating oil is formed in the annular groove formed in the cage. It passes through the lubricating oil supply hole and is directly supplied to the rolling element of the rolling bearing, so that the lubricating oil does not reach the inside of the rolling bearing due to the flow of air formed around the rolling bearing. The rolling bearing is effectively and reliably lubricated and cooled by the lubricating oil.
