ABSTRACT:
An axial ball bearing is constituted by a housing block having a bore therethrough containing a ball cage which coacts with axial grooves formed in the wall of the bore to define a plurality of endless ball channels each of which is filled with a series of bearing balls that protrude inwardly from inner axial portions of the channels to provide ball surfaces to support a shaft and protrude outwardly from outer axial portions of the channels into the housing grooves so as to prevent turning of the cage relative to the housing. The ball surfaces define a precisely located bearing surface of cylindrical outline to receive said shaft, the diameter of which is determined solely by the diameter of the bore wall and the diameter of the bearing balls. The housing block, which forms a unit with the cage, itself sustains the load on the bearings and is formed with at least one flat external surface for mounting the bearing in working position.
