2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, synthetic resin pulleys have been used as tensioner pulleys and idler pulleys for engine accessories for the purpose of weight reduction, reduction of belt sliding resistance, and cost reduction. As a conventional synthetic resin pulley, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-63249 is known. This includes an inner cylindrical portion, an outer cylindrical portion for guiding the belt which is radially separated from the inner cylindrical portion and is connected by a disk portion, and a plurality of radially formed radial surfaces on the circumferential side surface of the disk portion. And a synthetic resin main body having ribs formed integrally with the outer peripheral surface of the outer ring of the rolling bearing. Here, since the synthetic resin pulley has lower strength and rigidity than the metal pulley, the rib is formed on the circumferential side surface of the disk portion for the purpose of increasing the strength and rigidity.

In the above-mentioned conventional synthetic resin pulley, when it is manufactured by injection molding, the injection pressure at the rib portion formed for increasing the strength and rigidity causes the rib. In this position, the same number of ribs as the number of ribs causes deformation of the outer ring inner diameter of the bearing at regular intervals, that is, undulation peaks, and vibrations and noises are generated during the rotation of the rolling bearing, leading to a decrease in accuracy of the synthetic resin pulley. It is presumed that this vibration or sound is generated when the number of undulations, that is, the number of ribs is an integral multiple of the number of rolling elements and an integral multiple of ± 1. This can be understood from the following known contents.

That is, in general, the occurrence of bearing vibrations due to the relationship between the number of undulations of the bearing ring and the number of rolling elements is described in, for example, "Rolling Bearing Engineering" -Rolling Bearing Engineering Editing Committee- (Yokendo,
(Issued July 10, 1975), it is described as follows. For example, FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C (described in the same document) show that the undulations on the inner ring 10 of the ball bearing are nz-.
1 mountain (FIG. 3A), nz mountain (FIG. 3B), nz + 1
FIG. 3 is an explanatory view of a mechanism for generating a radial vibration of the outer ring 11 at the time of a mountain (FIG. 3 (C)).
(B), (C) and the case where it contacts the undulation mountain 13 is shown. Here, z is the number of balls and n is an integer. At this time,
In the case of the undulation of the nz peak (FIG. 3B), the outer ring 11 does not move in the radial direction, but the nz-1 peak (FIG. 3A) and the nz + 1 peak (FIG. 3C). In case, outer ring 11
Is most moved in the arrow direction (radial direction). Therefore, it is known that the radial vibration of the outer ring 11 occurs when the undulation of the inner ring 10 is nz ± 1. The same applies to the case where the ball 13 of symbol 1 contacts the undulation valley.
