Sliding-contact bearing for radial and axial load - has two portions securely held together but with ability to move relatively within strictly defined limits

摘要

On the inner edge of the axial bearing portion (2) a number of fixing clips (5) are flanked by splay fingers (6). The clips enter a recess (13) in the edge (7) of the radial bearing portion (3) whose end is shaped into a niche (8) overlapped axially by a hook-shaped projection (9). When the two portions (2,3) are assembled together, the fingers are deformed permanently into the niche behind the hook. USE/ADVANTAGE - Secure fixing of the axial plain bearing to the radial bearing is guaranteed, with defined limitation of the relative mobility, in a few simple and safe steps.
