LOW-FRICTION/LOW-WEAR SLIDING MECHANISM WITH FLOATING OPERATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sliding mechanism effectively utilizing the property of gas-phase synthesized diamond film formation applied to the sliding face of a slider while properly adjusting contact pressure during assembling the slider on a sliding member and during sliding movement with the floating operation of the slider on a holding member. SOLUTION: The gas-phase synthesized diamond film formation is applied to the sliding face of a base material such as titanium silicon carbide for the slider which contacts the sliding member for friction sliding movement. Round-machining such as curve shaping is applied to the mounting face on the opposite side to the sliding face. The round-machined face is fitted to a fitting groove in the inner face of the holding member formed corresponding thereto and adhered thereto with adhesive. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
