摘要 |
The invention relates to a method of producing a plain bearing bush or bearing shell of varying width from a flat strip material, which comprises the following steps: incorporating grooves in the flat strip material along the bush or bearing-shell contour, rolling or bending the flat strip material into a bush or bearing-shell shape, mechanical severing of the excess marginal regions along the grooves, obtaining a finished plain bearing bush or bearing shell which has the final shape. In this case, the invention is based on the idea of producing trapezoidal or stepped bushes as “shaped bushes” from strip material. The starting point in this case may be a strip of rectangular cross section, which is normally used for cylindrical bushes. The grooves can be incorporated in the flat strip material.
