Abstract: A sliding bearing includes an inner ring element; an outer ring element; and at least one sliding bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element, wherein a bearing surface of the sliding bearing pad and a counterface of the outer ring element abut one another, wherein the sliding bearing element includes at least two sliding bearing pads.

Abstract: A method for changing slide bearing pads arranged on a rotor shaft of a rotor bearing arrangement of a wind turbine, includes the method steps: moving the slide bearing pad to be changed to a removal opening by rotating the rotor shaft; releasing an axial securing element of the slide bearing pad to be changed; axially removing the slide bearing pad to be changed through the removal opening; axially inserting a new slide bearing pad through the removal opening; and fixing the new slide bearing pad by the axial securing element. A slide bearing pad changing device with a manipulation arm that is movable relative to a base frame is used for axially removing the slide bearing pad to be changed and for axially inserting a new slide bearing pad, wherein the manipulation arm is configured for coupling with the slide bearing pad.

Abstract: A slide bearing arrangement includes an inner ring element, an outer ring element, and at least one slide bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element. The slide bearing element includes at least two slide bearing pads, wherein the individual slide bearing pads each have a bearing surface that is cambered, viewed in an axial direction, and wherein an apex of the bearing surface has the largest diameter of the bearing surface.

Abstract: A method for assembling a rotor bearing arrangement of a wind turbine, includes the method steps: providing a rotor shaft; providing a bearing block; providing individual slide bearing pads; inserting the slide bearing pads in the bearing block; and joining the rotor shaft and the bearing block fitted with the slide bearing pads.

Abstract: A sliding bearing includes an inner ring element; an outer ring element; and at least one sliding bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element, wherein the sliding bearing element includes at least two sliding bearing pads, wherein the individual sliding bearing pads each have a bearing surface, which has the basic shape of a spherical cap.

Abstract: A sliding bearing includes:—an inner ring element;—an outer ring element;—at least one sliding bearing element, which is arranged between the inner ring element and the outer ring element. The sliding bearing element has multiple sliding bearing pads, wherein the individual sliding bearing pads each have a radial bearing surface and a fastening profile located opposite the radial bearing surface. The inner ring element has at least one receiving profile on its radial outside, which receiving profile serves for the positive locking connection between the sliding bearing pads and the inner ring element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sliding bearing (9) comprising: an inner ring element (13); an outer ring element (14); at least one sliding bearing element (15), which is arranged between the inner ring element (13) and the outer ring element (14). The sliding bearing element (15) has multiple sliding bearing pads (20), wherein the individual sliding bearing pads (20) each have a bearing surface (26), which is designed in the shape of a spherical cap.
