COMBINATION ELASTOMERIC AND CYLINDRICAL PLAIN BEARING

A bearing assembly is for movably coupling first (1) and second members (2), one being movable relative to the other. A plain bearing section includes an inner ring (16) having a bore for receiving the first member and an outer cylindrical bearing surface. An outer ring (22) is disposed about the in...

Zusammenfassung:A bearing assembly is for movably coupling first (1) and second members (2), one being movable relative to the other. A plain bearing section includes an inner ring (16) having a bore for receiving the first member and an outer cylindrical bearing surface. An outer ring (22) is disposed about the inner ring and has an inner cylindrical bearing surface disposed against the inner ring bearing surface, one bearing surface sliding against the other when the movable member displaces about a first axis. The two rings engage to prevent relative displacement between the rings when the movable member displaces about a second axis. An elastomeric bearing section (14) is disposed about the plain bearing section, is connected with the second member and is formed such that at least a portion of the elastomeric bearing section flexes when the movable member angularly displaces about the second axis.
