Sliding-contact thrust bearing with a carrier ring, a plurality of sliding-contact segments arranged with a spacing between one another along a circle on the carrier ring, and a device for feeding in lubricant. The sliding-contact segments have an essentially trapezoidal outline and side faces extending in the circumferential direction and in the radial direction. They are secured with the aid of bolts which are screwed into the carrier ring and the heads of which are enclosed in recesses in the sliding-contact segments. The device for feeding in lubricant includes insertion bores in the carrier rings, which extend in the radial direction below the spacings and are connected to the bores which allow the lubricant to pass into the interspaces between the sliding-contact segments, the cross-section of which bores is overdimensioned in relation to the amount of lubricant to pass through. Inserted into the insertion bores are lubricant feed sleeves which, corresponding to the passage bores, have the ejection channels, the diameter of which meters the lubricant. <IMAGE>
