Abstract

The invention relates to a bearing cage for a bearing of the type comprising a first ring having a first bearing race, a second ring having a second bearing race, rolling bodies positioned in an annular rolling volume between the first and the second bearing races in such a way as to enable a relative rotation between the first and second rings around a reference axis of the bearing, the cage comprising cells for housing rolling bodies, the cage being characterised in that it comprises an interface for coupling with a maneuvering member, such that when the maneuvering member is engaged with the coupling interface, the bearing cage is capable of being rotationally driven by the maneuvering member in a predetermined direction with respect to the reference axis.
