摘要

The present invention relates to a bearing shell (2) or plain bearing bushing, including for the arrangement of crankshaft bearings in internal combustion engines. It includes a bushing-shaped ball-bearing section (4) and a spool-shaped thrust bearing section (6), with a bearing-shell supporting substrate (8) and a sliding substrate (10) applied thereon which, in the elbowed transitional area (12), passes at least partly from the ball-bearing section (4) to the thrust bearing section (6) and is characterized in that in the transitional area (12), between the ball-bearing section (4) and the thrust bearing section (6) the wall thickness of the bearing-shell supporting substrate (8) is reduced so as to increase the adaptiveness of the bearing shell to a distorted sliding partner.
