Abstract:
A cage and roller assembly includes a plurality of rollers to be brought into rolling contact with a raceway surface provided on the outer periphery of a shaft, and an annular cage that retains the rollers. Lubricating oil is supplied through an oil supply hole that is provided inside the shaft and is open at the raceway surface. The cage includes a pair of annular portions, and a plurality of cage bars that couple the annular portions together and are arranged with intervals in a circumferential direction. The rollers are housed in pockets each formed between the pair of annular portions and between the cage bars that are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction. The cage has an inner recessed groove that is provided on a radially inner surface of the cage bar and extends through the annular portions in an axial direction.
