Abstract: A sliding bearing with a divided running surface of plastic is provided. The plastic running surface is adhesively attached to the running surface in at least one piece by a laminate which is made of a plastic layer, at least one melting layer, and at least one metal layer.

Abstract: Radial friction bearing (1), in particular for electric motors (engines), comprising a bearing housing (2), at least one fixed lubrication ring (4) which is secured on a shaft (6) coaxially with it, and at least one bearing shell (8) disposed within the bearing housing (2) in which the shaft (6) is rotatably supported and the bearing housing (2) comprises a radial joining plane (10) and the at least one bearing shell is a thin-walled bearing shell (8).

Abstract: A self adjusting bearing includes a load bearing having a cylindrical bore for carrying a rotating shaft. The load bearing is mounted for pivoting about an axis which is transverse to and intersects a longitudinal axis of the bore. The load bearing is supported by a pair of housings each of which carries a pivot bearing. A journal projecting radially from the load bearing engages the pivot bearing and an electrically insulating bushing is positioned between the housing and the pivot bearing to electrically isolate the main bearing from the housing. In an alternate embodiment, the insulating bushing is positioned between the load bearing journal and the pivot bushing so that the pivot bushing is also electrically isolated from the load bearing.
