Spherical roller bearing

Spherical roller bearings have double row rollers, the outer ring has one shared spherical raceway, and the inner ring has two raceways that are inclined at an angle relative to the bearing axis. This ingenious construction makes it self-aligning, so it is not susceptible to the angle error of the shaft and the bearing housing, or the bending of the shaft. It is suitable for installation errors or shaft deflections that cause angular errors. In addition to being able to withstand radial loads, the bearing can withstand axial loads in both directions.
