[0002] The automobile shock absorber is an important component in the automobile suspension system. It mainly plays the role of shock absorption and supporting the vehicle body. The main function of the shock absorber joint bearing in the automobile shock absorber is to connect the wheel and the vehicle body and allow the wheel to swing and tilt at a certain angle during driving. This swing and tilt can effectively absorb the impact and vibration caused by uneven road surface, thereby improving the ride comfort and driving stability of the car. This structure enables the joint bearing to withstand large loads and adapt to various complex movement modes.

[0003] Due to the harsh working environment and the need to withstand large loads and friction, the lubrication of spherical bearings is particularly important. Generally speaking, spherical bearings are lubricated with special grease, which can ensure that the spherical bearings maintain good lubrication under long-term, high-load working conditions. It should be noted that the grease of spherical bearings needs to be replaced and replenished regularly to ensure that they are always in the best working condition. At the same time, regular inspection and maintenance of spherical bearings are also required to promptly detect and deal with possible problems to ensure the normal operation of automobile shock absorbers and driving safety.

The above-mentioned arrangement is mainly to allow the lubricating oil to enter the lubricating oil groove through the first lubricating oil hole and the second lubricating oil hole. However, since the filling of lubricant is time-consuming and labor-intensive, if the lubricant is only directed to the inner spherical surface, the contact surface between the outer ring and the inner ring cannot be taken care of, and the maintenance cost of the joint bearing is a bit too high. Therefore, the utility model proposes a joint bearing. Utility Model Content
