FIELD: cleaning of bearings. SUBSTANCE: machine has a tank with detergent liquid, washing chamber with nozzles, device to feed the bearings to the washing chamber and then - to the mechanism for rotation of bearings of different diameters using supporting drive rollers mounted for rotation at different speeds and located below the level of the bearing inlet to the washing chamber, in which a cradle with a pressure roller made in the form of two converging cones and a sliding stop for bearings are mounted for vertical movement. End jaw couplings are mounted on the respective axles of the supporting drive rollers, they consist of two half-couplings with a helical distance spring placed between them. The stop for bearings is spring-loaded in the vertical direction. The washing chamber has an additional netted cradle for bearings with a drive for its turning; the drive is made in the form of hydraulic power cylinders with a common rod having a toothed thread engageable with the gear fixed on the axle.
