Abstract
There is disclosed a bearing structure having an excellent fretting resistance. In the bearing structure in which a sliding bearing is mounted at its back face on a housing, and rotatably supports a rotation shaft at an inner face thereof, and a covering layer of an amorphous alloy is formed on at least one of the back face of the sliding bearing and an inner surface of the housing. Thanks to an excellent non-adhesion property of the amorphous alloy, adhesion is less liable to develop between the back face of the bearing and the housing even if a slight friction repeatedly occurs therebetween, thereby imparting an excellent fretting resistance to the bearing structure.
Claims6
A bearing structure comprising a housing, a sliding bearing which is mounted at its back face on said housing and which rotatably supports a rotation shaft on an inner face thereof, and a covering layer of an amorphous alloy formed on at least one of the back face of said sliding bearing and an inner surface of said housing.
