Product data Application areas Page ..............16Page ..............57 Articulated pendulum joint of a industrial wheel loader Three SKF steel-on-steel spherical plain bearings with the multi-groove lubrication system are used for the bearing arrangement of the articulated pendulum joint of this wheel loader. Two of the bearings providethe articu- lation. The third bearing together with a cylindrical sliding bushing in the pen- dulum joint serves to compensate for uneven ground so that the driven wheels adhere well to the surface.The multi-groove lubrication systemof SKF spherical plain bearings im- proves the transport of lubricant to the loaded zone and also enlarges the lubricant reservoir in the bearing. Neglection of lubrication intervals previously led to lubricant starvation,this has been solved.Heavy-duty performance at no extracost provides much extended service lives even withlong maintenance inter- vals.
