Abstract

‎Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity and $M$ an $R$-bimodule‎. ‎We introduce the generalization of $r$-clean rings called left $r$-clean $R$-bimodules‎, ‎defined without their endomorphism rings‎. ‎An $R$-bimodule $M$ is said to be left $r$-clean if each element is the sum of a left idempotent and a left regular element of $M$‎. ‎We present some properties of the left $r$-clean $R$-bimodule‎. ‎At the end of this paper‎, ‎we give the sufficient and necessary condition for an $R$-bimodule to form a left $r$-clean $R$-bimodule.‎
