Abstract
Provided is a slide bearing with which friction-reducing effects can be obtained and the total volume of effluent oil can be limited. A slide bearing in which halved members made by dividing a cylinder in two in a direction parallel to the axial are disposed vertically, wherein narrow grooves are provided at the ends of the slide bearing in the axial direction, the narrow grooves extending in the circumferential direction from the mating surface on the downstream side of the rotation direction to a specified bearing angle is an angle rotated in the range of ≧0 degree to ≦90 degrees from the mating surface on the downstream side in the rotation direction (bearing angle of 180 degrees) towards the upstream side in the rotation direction. In other words, the bearing angle is the range of 180 degrees to 270 degrees.
