Composite sliding bearing and wind power generating device using the same bearing

A composite sliding bearing, comprising:

• an inner ring including ring bodies halved by an axially central dividing surface;
• bearing pads disposed on inclined surfaces of the ring bodies;
• and
• an outer ring disposed on the bearing pads and having an inner diameter surface corresponding to an outer diameter surface of the inner ring;
• wherein a radial load and an axial load applied to the bearing pads are supported by sliding the inner diameter surface of the outer ring on sliding surfaces of the bearing pads when the bearing pads are fluid-lubricated;
• and
• wherein an oil supply groove is cut in a central portion of an inner diameter surface of the inner ring, and oil supply holes, communicating with the oil supply groove, which pass through the inner ring in a radial direction, are bored in the inner ring, lubricating oil being supplied from the oil supply groove via the oil supply holes to the sliding surfaces of the bearing pads on which the outer ring slides.
