ABSTRACT:
A flexible spring bearing having concave and convex portions, and including main bearing race and thrust race are incorporated to be contiguous to the end of the concave portion. The main bearing race along with the cylindrical configuration rotates, via a bearing means, upon the thrust race. The bearing means may be an annular protrusion disposed concentric with the cylindrical configuration. The bearing means is protected from corrosion and dirt by a set of annular skirts and walls which form a channel with the bearing means located therein. The channel may be prepacked with a lubricant, thereby creating a hydraulic floating relationship between the main bearing race and thrust race. A visual indicator provides a means to measure the amount of surface wear of the bearing means on the thrust race.
