ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a bearing with grease sealed, and more particularly it relates to a bearing for motor having grease sealed therein, having small loss by friction, small noise and long life.
2. Description of the Related Art
Conventionally, various investigations have been made on bearing to develop a bearing having small loss by friction, small noiseand long life. Recently, in particular, global environmental problem is getting a great deal of attention, and advanced countries are obligated to make an effort to reduce waste of energy as less as possible. Various proposals have been made and improvement has been made on bearings used in every field, but it is the actual circumstances that further improvement is still required.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has been made for the purpose of providing a markedly excellent bearing having low torque, low noise and long life, as compared with the conventional bearing.
As a result of various investigations to develop a bearing having the above-mentioned preferable characteristics, the present inventors have found that a good result is obtained by sealing a bearing with a grease composition comprising an alkali metal salt and/or an alkaline earth metal salt of a higher fatty acid having 10 or more carbon atoms or of a higher hydroxyfatty acid having at least one hydroxyl group and 10 or more carbon atoms, a specific carbonate compound, and an ester-based synthetic oil such as a diester-based synthetic oil, triester-based synthetic oil or a tetraester-based synthetic oil, and have completed the present invention based on this finding.
