Abstract
A sliding type bushing including an inner sleeve having an axially intermediate large-diameter portion, a race disposed radially outwardly of the inner sleeve, and radially spaced from the large-diameter portion, and a sliding sleeve formed of a fiber reinforced resin material between the large-diameter portion and the race. The sliding sleeve has an outer surface fixed to the race, and an inner surface which faces an outer surface of the large-diameter portion with a predetermined clearance therebetween, such that the sliding and inner sleeves are freely slidable relative to each other about the axis of the bushing. The sliding type bushing further includes a cylindrical sliding cloth fixed to the inner surface of the sliding sleeve and formed of a fibrous material having a low coefficient of sliding friction, and a pair of axial retainers for axially retaining the sliding sleeve at axially opposite end faces thereof, and a generally cylindrical elastic body disposed radially outwardly of the race, such that the elastic body is fixed to an outer surface of the race.
