Pivot bearing assembly having a pivot pin and having at least one bearing block and assembly method therefor
A pivot bearing assembly includes a pivot pin and at least one bearing block, in which a bearing bush having a bearing bore is accommodated. The pivot pin is slidingly supported in the bearing bore. In order to create an improved pivot bearing assembly, the bearing bush has a rounded outer surface, which is inserted into a negatively rounded inner surface in order to orient the bearing bush.
1. A pivot bearing assembly comprising:
a pivot pin and at least one bearing block with a bearing bush having a bearing bore received in the at least one bearing block, and wherein the pivot pin is slidingly supported in the bearing bore;
wherein the bearing bush has a spherical outer surface which is inserted into a negatively rounded inner surface in order to orient the bearing bush relative to the negatively rounded inner surface; and
wherein the bearing bush, after being oriented, is rotationally fixed in the bearing block relative to the negatively rounded inner surface.
2. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing block is welded to a strap frame.
3. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the negatively rounded inner surface is formed in a bearing block bore.
4. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the bearing bush is adhered directly into the bearing block.
5. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the negatively rounded inner surface is formed in an intermediate ring which is inserted into the bearing block bore.
6. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the bearing bush is adhered into the intermediate ring.
7. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the negatively rounded inner surface is formed in a bearing block bore.
8. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the bearing bush is adhered directly into the bearing block.
9. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the negatively rounded inner surface is formed in an intermediate ring which is inserted into the bearing block bore.
10. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the bearing bush is adhered into the intermediate ring.
11. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the intermediate ring is adhered or pressed into the bearing block bore.
12. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the intermediate ring is adhered or pressed into the bearing block bore.
13. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one bearing block includes two bearing blocks, wherein the bearing blocks are spaced apart from one another and support a common pivot pin.
14. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the two bearing bushes, after being oriented, are fixed in the bearing block such that, as seen in a longitudinal direction of the pivot pin, the bearing bores of the bearing bushes are aligned with one another.
15. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing bore is cylindrical.
16. A pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing bush is produced from synthetic material.
17. A mobile crane comprising a pivot bearing assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one chosen from a first said pivot bearing assembly is arranged between a superstructure and a base of a jib, a second said pivot bearing assembly is arranged between the superstructure and a luffing cylinder [and/or] and a third said pivot bearing assembly is arranged between the jib and the luffing cylinder.
18. A mobile crane as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the at least one bearing block is welded to the superstructure or the jib.
19. A method of assembling a pivot bearing assembly, comprising:
a pivot pin and at least one bearing block with a bearing bush having a bearing bore is received in the at least one bearing block and wherein the pivot pin is slidingly supported in the bearing bore, wherein the bearing bush which has a rounded outer surface is inserted into a negatively rounded inner surface and the bearing bush is oriented, and the bearing bush, after being oriented, is rotationally fixed in the bearing block.
20. A method as claimed in claim 19 , wherein the bearing bush is adhesively fixed in the bearing block.
