Abstract

A bearing shell insertable between two relatively movable members, such as a housing and a shaft, is split into two semi-cylindrical halves with transverse end faces adjoining each other along an axial parting plane. At least one link extending across that parting plane positively engages the two half-shells for holding them inseparably together but with enough relative play to facilitate their self-centering insertion between the two members. The link may be a headless bolt, threaded into one end face and received with clearance in a recess of the other end face in which it is loosely retained by a cross-pin, or else it may be a flat, generally C-shaped or X-shaped clip with one or two pairs of heads loosely fitted into shallow depressions on the outer surfaces of the half-shells closely spaced from their end faces.
