What are the characteristics of bearing joint?

The bearing joint is mainly a sliding bearing with a special structure of an inner ring with an outer spherical surface and an outer ring with an inner spherical surface.
Features
Bearing joints can withstand larger loads. According to its different types and structures, it can bear radial load, axial load or combined radial and axial load at the same time. Due to the composite material inlaid on the outer spherical surface of the inner ring, the so bearing joint can produce self-lubricating during operation. It is generally used for low-speed swing motion and low-speed rotation. It can also be used for tilting motion within a certain angle range. When the misalignment between the support shaft and the shaft housing hole is large, it can still work normally. Self-lubricating spherical plain bearings are used in water conservancy, professional machinery and other industries.

Bearing joints are widely used in engineering hydraulic cylinders, forging machine tools, engineering machinery, automation equipment, automobile shock absorbers, water conservancy machinery and other industries.
Because the spherical sliding contact area of ​​the bearing joint is large, the inclination angle is large, and because most of the joint bearings adopt special processing methods, such as surface phosphating, galvanizing, chrome plating or outer sliding surface lining, padding, spraying, etc.

Therefore, the bearing joint has a large load capacity and impact resistance, and has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, self-alignment, good lubrication or self-lubricating without lubrication and dirt pollution, and can work normally even if the installation is misaligned. Therefore, bearing joints are widely used for low-speed swing motion, tilt motion and rotary motion.
