    Abstract: A vehicle thrust bearing that can reduce the number of assembly parts used in assembling a suspension of a vehicle to a body and reduce the thickness of parts to simplify the assembling work includes an upper case that is attached to a body of a vehicle having a suspension, and a lower case that is arranged under the upper case so as to be rotatable with respect to the upper case, wherein the upper case includes in a top area thereof a mounting portion for being attached to the body of the vehicle.

    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to improve the driving stability of a vehicle in which a double wishbone type or multi-link type suspension is adopted. A double wishbone type suspension has a sliding bearing disposed between a coil spring provided coaxially with a shock absorber and an upper support for mounting the coil spring to the body of the vehicle along with the shock absorber, the sliding bearing permitting the coil spring and the upper support to rotate relative to each other. The sliding bearing permits the coil spring and the upper support to rotate relative to each other with torque lower than torque generated by the torsion of the coil spring caused by the load of the vehicle acting on a damper assembly.

    Abstract: Provided is a thrust sliding bearing which, while allowing a shaft member to smoothly rotate, can support for a long period of time a thrust load acting on the shaft member. A thrust sliding bearing comprises: an upper case (2) mounted to an upper support for mounting a strut-type suspension to a vehicle body; a lower case (3) mounted to an upper spring seat for supporting the upper end of the coil spring of the strut-type suspension, the lower case (3) being combined with the upper case (2) to form an annular space (5); and an annular center plate (4) disposed in the annular space (5) and enables the relative rotation between the upper case (2) and the lower case (3). The annular space (5) is filled with lubricating grease. The center plate (4) comprises: a bearing surface (42) in slidable contact with the surface (27) to be supported of the upper case (2); and annular protrusions (47, 48) provided at the inner peripheral edge and the outer peripheral edge of the bearing surface (42) so as to extend in the circumferential direction of the center plate (4).
