Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
96 words
A self-lubricating solid bearing material for use above 750*F comprising: a combination of oxidation resistant aluminum phosphate, barium fluoride and calcium fluoride in weight percent relation to each other of about 6 percent aluminum phosphate, about 48.4 percent barium fluoride and about 45.6 percent calcium fluoride, silver in the ratio of about 1:4 to 1:10 parts by weight of oxidation resistant materials to silver; and a compound selected from the group of materials consisting of aluminum oxide, silicon nitride, and molybdenum silicide in an amount of from about 5 to 10 weight percent of total composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
15 words
A self-lubricating solid bearing material as in claim 2, wherein the compound is aluminum oxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
98 words
A self-lubricating solid bearing material for use at temperatures above 750*F comprising: a combination of oxidation resistant aluminum phosphate, barium fluoride and calcium fluoride in weight relation to each other of about 6 percent aluminum phosphate, about 48.4 percent barium fluoride and about 45.6 percent calcium fluoride; silver in the ratio of about 1:6 to 1:7 parts by weight of oxidation resistant materials to silver and a compound selected from the group of materials consisting of aluminum oxide, silicon nitride, and molybdenum silicide in the amount of from about 5 to 9 weight percent of the total composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
48 words
A self-lubricating solid bearing material for use at higH temperatures comprising: about 0.8 percent aluminum phosphate, about 6.6 percent barium fluoride, about 6.2 percent calcium fluoride, and about 5.0 percent aluminum oxide with these compounds dispersed throughout a silver matrix comprising about 81.4 percent of the bearing material.
