Abstract: A half thrust bearing for a crankshaft includes a back metal layer defining a first surface and a second surface, and a bearing alloy layer on the first surface to form a slide surface, and thrust relieves formed adjacent to both circumferential end surfaces and having a thrust relief surface consisting of the bearing alloy layer. Each circumferential end surface of the back metal layer includes an exposed end surface adjacent to the second surface, and a transition surface adjacent to the first surface. The bearing alloy layer further includes an extension portion covering the transition surface and having extension end surface adjacent to the exposed end surface, the extension end surface and the exposed end surface extending at least partly in the same plane.

Abstract: A semi-cylindrical half bearing for a sliding bearing includes at least one axial groove formed on its inner circumferential surface that includes a smooth groove surface formed back away from the inner circumferential surface toward a radially outer side. The half bearing further includes a plurality of axial narrow grooves and a plurality of circumferential narrow grooves that are formed further back away from the groove surface toward the radially outer side, and extend in circumferential and axial directions, respectively, so as to cross each other. A depth of the axial narrow groove from the groove surface is greater than a depth of the circumferential narrow groove from the groove surface, and a width of the axial narrow groove on the groove surface is greater than a width of the circumferential narrow groove on the groove surface.

Abstract: A half thrust bearing includes a back metal layer, a bearing alloy layer defining a slide surface, and two thrust relieves formed adjacent to both circumferential end surfaces of the half thrust bearing and each including a thrust relief surface. The back metal layer includes an exposed end face configuring at least a part of the circumferential end surface, an exposed slant surface configuring at least a part of the thrust relief surface, and a transition surface formed between the exposed end face and the exposed slant surface. The transition surface is covered with a cover member including a cover end surface configuring at least a part of the circumferential end surface and a cover slant surface configuring at least a part of the thrust relief surface.

Abstract: A semi-cylindrical half bearing for a sliding bearing includes at least one axial groove formed on its inner circumferential surface that includes a smooth groove surface formed back away from the inner circumferential surface toward a radially outer side of the half bearing. The groove surface forms a convex curve toward the radially outer side in a cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction of the half bearing, and forms a straight line extending in the axial direction in a cross-section parallel to the axial direction. The half bearing further includes a plurality of axial narrow grooves formed on the groove surface so as to be back away from the groove surface toward the radially outer side, that extend in the axial direction of the half bearing.
