Abstract
A plain bearing assembly (1) includes a rail and a carriage (20). The rail has a rail body (10) elongate in a longitudinal direction, and on one transverse side of there is a cylindrical guide portion (11). The carriage (20) includes a carriage body with a cylindrical passage (22) corresponding to the guide portion (11) to receive the guide portion (11). The inner side of the passage (22), with which, in an operating state of the plain bearing assembly, the carriage (20) rests slidingly in the longitudinal direction against the guide portion (11), is formed by a sliding element made from a sliding material. The sliding element is produced jointly with the carriage body as a one-piece carriage part made of plastics material.

A plain bearing assembly (1) comprising a rail and a carriage (20),
- wherein the rail has a rail body (10) elongate in a longitudinal direction, at one transverse side of which is provided a cylindrical guide portion (11) which is connected to the rail body (10) via a neck portion of the rail, and
- wherein the carriage (20) has a carriage body in which a cylindrical passage (22) corresponding to the guide portion (11) is provided for receiving the guide portion (11),
- wherein the carriage body has a longitudinal slot (26) for receiving the neck portion (13), which slot (26) is connected to the passage (22) and corresponds to the neck portion (13),
- wherein the inner side of the passage (22), with which, in an operating state of the plain bearing assembly, the carriage (20) rests slidingly in the longitudinal direction against the guide portion (11), is formed by a sliding element made from a sliding material,
- wherein the entire carriage (20) comprising the carriage body and the sliding element is produced as a one-piece carriage part of plastics material, wherein at least the inner side of the passage (22) is formed by a tribopolymer.
A carriage (20) for a plain bearing assembly (1) having a rail with a cylindrical guide portion, a neck portion, and a rail body connected to the cylindrical guide portion via the neck portion, the carriage (20) is produced as a one-piece carriage part of plastics material which carriage part has integrated therein a carriage body and a sliding element produced from a sliding material,
- wherein a cylindrical passage (22) corresponding to the cylindrical guide portion (11) is provided in the carriage body for receiving the guide portion (11),
- wherein the carriage body has a longitudinal slot (26) for receiving the neck portion (13), which slot (26) is connected to the passage (22) and corresponds to the neck portion (13), and an inner side of the passage (22), with which, in an operating state of the plain bearing assembly (1), the carriage (20) rests slidingly in the longitudinal direction against the guide portion (11), is formed by the sliding element.
A carriage (20) for a plain bearing assembly (1) having a rail with a cylindrical guide portion, a neck portion, and a rail body connected to the cylindrical guide portion via the neck portion, the carriage comprising a one-piece carriage part of plastics material, and the carriage part has integrated therein a carriage body and a sliding element produced from a sliding material,
- wherein the carriage body includes
- a cylindrical passage (22) configured to receive the cylindrical guide portion (11), the cylindrical passage (22) includes an inner side formed by the sliding element, and
- a longitudinal slot (26) configured to receive the neck portion (13), the longitudinal slot (26) is connected to the passage (22), and
- wherein the carriage (20) is configured during use through the sliding element to rest slidingly in the longitudinal direction against the guide portion (11).
