  • Patent number: 10408265
    Abstract: An engine bearing shell may include a concave bearing surface, opposed axial end faces with an axial width therebetween, circumferential joint faces, and an oil distribution groove circumferentially extending along the concave bearing surface towards the axial end faces. The oil distribution groove may have a groove width that is 4% to 9.25% of the axial width.
