Abstract: A member for guiding an element mobile in oscillation or rotation is presented. The member has a body made of a hardened metallic material, provided with a bore for assembling the mobile element, having cavities that are distributed discontinuously in the bore and capable of acting as grease reserves, and having optional grease supply. In the bore are defined a bearing surface outside of the cavities and the grease supply, and a non-bearing surface in the cavities and the grease supply. The bore includes at least one zone with: cavities having a depth of between 2 and 5 mm, and a quantity of grease in the cavities per bearing surface of between 0.05 and 0.3 g/cm2. A mechanical system having such a member and a method for manufacturing such a member is also contemplated.

Abstract: A guiding member, having a body provided with a bore for mounting a mobile element is presented. The body consists of a metallic material. The bore has a surface layer treated against jamming over a diffusion depth of less than or equal to 0.6 mm. The surface layer has a hardness of greater than or equal to 500 Hv1 over a depth of between 5 and 50 ?m.

Abstract: A hinged component with one degree of freedom includes at least two concentric rings, movable in rotation in relation to one another around a central axis, defining a friction interface therebetween and including: an outer ring having an inner friction surface and an inner ring having an outer friction surface and an inner friction surface intended to receive a movable member guided by the component in rotation, oscillation and/or translation.
