Abstract

Methods for producing an angular contact roller bearing with unilaterally delimiting rims are disclosed, as well as devices for assembling the angular contact roller bearing. The method may include generating an outer shell surface on an inner bearing ring, which outer shell surface is inclined in a first inclination direction relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) in an axial direction, generating an inner shell surface on an outer bearing ring, which inner shell surface is inclined in a second inclination direction relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) in an axial direction, wherein the second inclination direction is oriented oppositely to the first inclination direction, conically forming an inner raceway into the outer shell surface of the inner bearing ring such that the inner raceway is inclined relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) and is delimited at precisely one end by a rim, conically forming an outer raceway into the inner shell surface of the outer bearing ring, such that the outer raceway is inclined relative to the bearing axis of rotation (AL) and is delimited at precisely one end by a rim, assembling the inner and outer bearing rings and a m…
