PILLOW BLOCK FOR A SEGMENTED, MEDIA-LUBRICATED PLAIN BEARING

摘要

The invention relates to a pillow block (1) for a segmented, media-lubricated plain bearing having a base body (2) comprising a contact surface (10); a sliding lining disposed on the contact surface (10) and forming a sliding surface (13), comprising a polymer material and associated with a center of area (12); characterized in that the material thickness of the sliding lining (3) in the direction of the surface normals of the sliding surfaces (13) in the unloaded state at the edge of the sliding surface (13) is greater than at the center of area (12), wherein the local differences in material thickness of the sliding lining (3) are formed by the surface profile of the contact surface (10) of the base body (2), and the contact surface (10) of the base body (2) comprises a convex profile or a raised area in the form of a level base in the region of the center of area (12).
