12、ng liner designed to withstand (under load) slight swivelling and slow rotations only. This standard applies whenever referenced. These bearings EN 4538-1, EN 4538-2, EN 4539-1 and EN 4539-2 are for actuator applications and for use in the temperature range 54 C to 163 C and for EN 4538-003 and EN 4
13、539-003 for use in the temperature range 54 C to 120 C. The liner may be of a fabric or composite material bonded to the inside diameter of the outer ring or in a composite material moulded into a pre-formed cavity between the inner and outer rings. The duty cycle (Annex E, normative) has been estab
14、lished on the basis of a civil aircraft aileron surface application. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

21、rms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 Self-lubricated spherical plain bearings, self-aligning in corrosion resistant steel with staking groove for actuator applications These consist of two concentric rings, between which is interposed
22、a self-lubricating liner which is bonded or moulded on the spherical surface of the outer ring. The width of the inner ring is greater than the width of the outer ring, so that a tilting movement is possible in addition to the rotational movement. The outer ring has no assembly slot. This outer ring
23、 has grooves for mechanical swaging. 3.2 surface discontinuities See TR 4475. 3.3 starting torque without load See TR 4475. 3.4 friction coefficient The friction coefficient of the bearing under load is given by the following formula: FRCwhere friction coefficient; C torque moment; F load on the bea
24、ring; R inner spherical ball radius. 3.5 permissible radial static loads radial (Cs) This corresponds to a permissible unit pressure multiplied by the projected surface area, the inner ring being able to take any position within the limits of the tilting angle indicated in the product standards or d
25、esign documentation. The direction of the load shall remain in the center plane of the outer ring. The radial projected surface area is given by the following formula: Ar K (C min. 2 T max.)

27、y cycles are defined in Annex E. The table defines unit pressure applied. The dynamic radial load is defined for each bearing size by multiplying the unit pressure by the projected surface area, see dimensional standard. 3.6.2 dynamic radial load C25one oscillating cycle includes an angular displace
