Abstract: A member for guiding an element mobile in oscillation or rotation is presented. The member has a body made of a hardened metallic material, provided with a bore for assembling the mobile element, having cavities that are distributed discontinuously in the bore and capable of acting as grease reserves, and having optional grease supply. In the bore are defined a bearing surface outside of the cavities and the grease supply, and a non-bearing surface in the cavities and the grease supply. The bore includes at least one zone with: cavities having a depth of between 2 and 5 mm, and a quantity of grease in the cavities per bearing surface of between 0.05 and 0.3 g/cm2. A mechanical system having such a member and a method for manufacturing such a member is also contemplated.

Abstract: A guide device includes: a metal component in the form of a bush provided with a friction surface intended to receive a mating part in frictional contact by sliding with oscillation; a wear sensing system of the friction surface having one or more sensors; and a wireless communication system connected to the detection system and configured to transmit information relating to the wear of the friction surface out of the guide device. The sensor or sensors are arranged exclusively on one longitudinal side or on two longitudinal sides of the bush, each longitudinal side being defined over at most two fifths of the length of the annular bush.

Abstract: A hinged component with one degree of freedom includes at least two concentric rings, movable in rotation in relation to one another around a central axis, defining a friction interface therebetween and including: an outer ring having an inner friction surface and an inner ring having an outer friction surface and an inner friction surface intended to receive a movable member guided by the component in rotation, oscillation and/or translation.
