SLIDING BEARING SHELL, IN PARTICULAR FOR MOTOR-DRIVEN APPLICATIONS

摘要

The invention relates to a sliding bearing shell (2), in particular for motor-driven applications, in particular for main or connecting rod bearing points, comprising a sliding layer (6) made of a metal sliding bearing alloy, two separation surfaces (8, 10) forming the peripheral ends of the sliding bearing shell, two axial peripheral sides (12, 14) and a sliding surface (36) toward the sliding partner, wherein starting from a metal blank section, the sliding bearing shell is shaped approximately into a semicircle and, starting from the sliding surface (36) toward the separation surfaces (8, 10), is designed to have a reduced wall thickness in an end section (22, 24), wherein in the region of at least one wall thickness-reduced end section (22, 24) a sealing edge (32, 34) extending in the circumferential direction (20) is provided on both sides in the region of the axial peripheral sides (12, 14), said sealing edge flanking both sides of the wall thickness-reduced end section (22, 24) and thus forming a barrier for the passage of oil. The sliding bearing shell is characterized in that the sealing edge (32, 34) is formed by not reducing the wall thickness in said region and provided with a width up to a maximum of 5.0 mm in the axial direction (16) measured in the sliding surface (36) to the sliding partner.
