FIELD: mechanical engineering.
SUBSTANCE: flexibly damping bearing has flexible members made of stacks of corrugated plates and intermediate ring mounted on the unmovable race of the bearing. The intermediate ring is T-shaped. The stacks of the plates are interposed between the walls of the T-shaped intermediate ring and housing and between the outer cylindrical side of the T-shaped intermediate ring and housing. The thickness of the plates in the stacks decreases from the periphery to the center proportional to the drop of stress in plates.
EFFECT: simplified manufacturing of the bearing.
