ABSTRACT:
A sealing arrangement for a sliding bearing for carrying heavy loads in which two plate-shaped bearing metal sections are displaceable relative to each other. These are provided with sliding plates fastened between them. One of these is larger than the other, and a lubricant is applied between the sliding plates. A sealing strip encloses the sliding surface at a distance therefrom, and carries the smaller sliding plate. It also adheres to the larger sliding plate. A gap is formed between the sealing strip and the sliding surface or smaller sliding plate, and this gap is completely filled with lubricant. The sealing strip is made of flexible material, and may be stretched elastically under the pressure of the initial lubricant filling the gap. The sealing strip, furthermore, may be made of spongy absorbent material with a U-shaped cross section, while being open towards the larger sliding plate which is provided with its own lubricant filling. The sealing strip may also have a hollow cross section and be filled on the inside with a medium under pressure which may be gas. The medium may, moreover, be under pressure which is regulatable. An armor may be provided for preventing radial enlargement of a sealing ring formed by the sealing strip.
