ABSTRACT:
An axial thrust bearing includes a plurality of circumferentially arranged segments. The segments are constrained in the circumferential direction by means of support plates disposed therebetween. The segments are elastically supported by means of individual spring elements mounted in a bearing body. The segments are provided with support ribs having tilting edges. The support ribs are supported between the support plates, and the tilting edges are supported against the spring elements. As a result, friction between the segments is minimized.
