Abstract
A slide bearing arrangement includes an inner ring element, an outer ring element, and at least one slide bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element. The slide bearing element includes at least two slide bearing pads, wherein the individual slide bearing pads each have a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, and wherein an apex of the bearing surface has the largest diameter of the bearing surface.
Claims25
A slide bearing arrangement, comprising:
- an inner ring element;
- an outer ring element;
- and
- at least one slide bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element,
- wherein a bearing surface of the slide bearing element and a mating surface of the outer ring element rest against each other,
- wherein the slide bearing element comprises at least two slide bearing pads, and
- wherein the individual slide bearing pads each have a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, in at least one sub-region,
- wherein a removal opening is configured in the outer ring element, wherein the removal opening interrupts the mating surface of the outer ring element.
A slide bearing arrangement, comprising:
- an inner ring element;
- an outer ring element;
- and
- at least one slide bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element;
- and
- a slide bearing pad reception ring, wherein multiple tapped holes are configured in the slide bearing pad reception ring,
- wherein a bearing surface of the slide bearing element and a mating surface of the outer ring element rest against each other,
- wherein the slide bearing element comprises at least two slide bearing pads, and
- wherein the individual slide bearing pads each have a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, in at least one sub-region,
- wherein the tapped holes serve to receive fastening screws, wherein pass-through holes are configured in the slide bearing pads, wherein through the pass-through holes the fastening screws are plugged in order to clamp the slide bearing pads on the slide bearing pad reception ring by the fastening screws.
A slide bearing arrangement, comprising:
- an inner ring element;
- an outer ring element;
- and
- at least one slide bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element,
- wherein a bearing surface of the slide bearing element and a mating surface of the outer ring element rest against each other,
- wherein the slide bearing element comprises at least two slide bearing pads, and wherein the individual slide bearing pads each have a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, in at least one sub-region,
- wherein a lubricating oil transport groove is configured on a first circumferential face of the slide bearing pad in the region of the bearing surface.
A method for changing a slide bearing pad of a slide bearing arrangement, comprising the method steps:
- providing a removal opening configured in an outer ring element and interrupting a mating surface of the outer ring element that rests against a bearing surface of a slide bearing pad to be changed;
- moving the slide bearing pad to be changed to the removal opening;
- releasing an axial securing element of the slide bearing pad to be changed;
- axially removing the slide bearing pad to be changed through the removal opening;
- axially inserting through the removal opening a new slide bearing pad having a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, in at least one sub-region;
- and
- fixing the new slide bearing pad using the axial securing element.
