Slide bearing component, slide bearing and method of manufacturing slide bearing component

Abstract

The invention relates to a slide bearing component with a sliding surface (5) made of a sliding material. The sliding material includes a matrix of polyphtalamide, at least 10 weight percent of high-stiff carbon fibers and at least 10 weight percent of PTFE.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sliding bearing component. Furthermore, the invention relates to a plain bearing having the plain bearing component and a method for producing the plain bearing component. Background technique [0002] Plain bearing components and plain bearings are known in various embodiments. In particular, these sliding bearing components can have sliding surfaces made of a plastic-based sliding material. In addition to plastic, the sliding material can also contain fibrous materials, such as glass fibers, mineral fibers or carbon fibers, in order to improve the mechanical properties of the sliding material, such as its resistance to compression, deformation, etc., and to improve the temperature behavior of the sliding material. Inexpensive fiberglass is especially widely used. When using glass fibers, however, there is the risk that the glass fibers, in particular through their sharp-edged fiber ends, will cause severe wear and damage...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, when using glass fibers there is the risk that the glass fibers, in particular through their pointed fiber ends, will cause severe wear and damage to the mating surfaces that are in sliding contact with the sliding material

In addition, the plastic of this sliding material is also damaged when the fiberglass is exposed

Both aspects lead to an increased rate of wear even when using lubricants and thus to a reduced operating efficiency of plain bearings especially at higher pressure loads and / or higher speeds
