A sliding swing bearing for bridges and similar structures comprising top, centre and base plate, and method for lining the curved upper surface of the base plate of such bearings

摘要

A rocker-sliding bearing for bridges or similar structures and a method of lining the concave top side surface of a curved baseplate of a rocker-slider bearing wherein the rocker-slider bearing includes a flat top plate, an intermediate plate having a flat top side and a convex curved underside surface, a bedplate and a baseplate having a correspondingly concave curved top side surface in turn secured to the bedplate, the curved surface on the top of the baseplate including a lining of corrosion-resistant material and the curved surface of the intermediate plate including a lining with a low coefficient of friction relative to the highly corrosion-resistant material on the curved surface of the baseplate wherein the lining on the curved surface of the baseplate includes a preformed curved disc positioned on the baseplate and secured to the concave top side thereof.
