Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a ceramics bearing of a segment type, which is hard to be subjected to concentrated load in the circumferential end part of a segment to be rarely broken, and easily forms a water film so as to attain good sliding characteristic. CONSTITUTION:The sliding area of a ceramics bearing 4 is divided into segments, and the circumferential end portions of the segment pieces are tapered to be disposed like a ring on a metallic shell 5. Thus, the circumferential end portions of the segments are hard to be subjected to concentrated load so that the breakage of the ceramics bearing 4 can be prevented, and it is possible to obtain the ceramics bearing of a segment type which can easily form a water film and has high reliability.

In the above-mentioned ceramic bearing device of the prior art, since the ceramic sliding member is segmented and annularly arranged in the metal shell, it is easy to manufacture a large diameter ceramic bearing. If the segment has a cylindrical shape, a water film cannot be expected, and if it has a rectangular or trapezoidal shape, there is a risk of pitting wear or damage due to the concentrated load applied to the end in the circumferential direction.

Further, since the inner diameter of the metal shell and the outer shape of the segment piece have a clearance due to manufacturing tolerance, if a load is applied to one end of the segment, concentrated load is likely to occur.
