SLIDE BEARING Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has support bushing and anti-friction insert placed in said bushing and having an inner enveloping surface for heat-transfer element. Main feature of the device is that enveloping surface of insert is made with longitudinal grooves, and that heat-transfer element is made in form of insertions which are fixed in said grooves, and in addition radius of curvature of operation surface of insertions equals radius of inner surface of insert, while shelves of insertions are located in grooves with a gap relative to groove side walls. Insertions may be made of anti-friction metallic material, bronze for example, in form of T-shaped or L-shaped members. EFFECT: increased load-carrying capacity and increased durability of slide bearing in case of operation in abrasive environment, simplified construction. 3 cl, 3 dwg, 1 tbl
