Abstract
A double row bearing includes a shaft and an inner ring mounted on the shaft. A preloading collar is fixedly mounted on the shaft and an elastic member is disposed between the inner ring and the preloading collar so that the preloading collar applies a predetermined preload to the inner ring through the elastic member. This structure compensates the reduction of the preload due to the temperature rise of the bearing and axial displacement of the inner ring of the bearing.
