  • Bearing shell made of hybrid material and process for production thereof
    Patent number: 7344312
    Abstract: Internal combustion engine with bearing shells, which are formed essentially by thermal sprayed bearing layers, wherein the thermal sprayed bearing layers are formed by at least two slide bearing materials with different hardness, which are spatially separated from each other and are provided on the outer surface of the bearing shell, as well as process for production of bearing shells for internal combustion engines including the steps: mechanical conditioning of the bearing surface coating of the bearing surface with the materials of the bearing shell by thermal spray processes finishing flattening processing of the applied layer wherein as bearing shell at least two slide bearing materials with different hardness were deposited separated spatially from each other, wherein the materials are in contact with each other via interlayers or joint layers.
    Type: Grant
