ABSTRACT:
A roller circle for hoisting and excavating equipment has upper and lower spaced annular rails. A plurality of tapered rollers are disposed between the rails in rolling contact with bearing surfaces of the rails. Each of the rollers is mounted on a shaft. Inner and outer cages connect the projecting ends of the shafts and are joined together by through rods. A portion of the inner cage overlies a side face of a rail and a pad is disposed between the inner cage portion and the side of the rail. A second pad is disposed between the outer cage and the larger ends of the rollers. Thrust loads are transferred from the rollers to the outer cage and through the rods to the inner cage and then to the rail.
