Bearings thousands of roads, rail and river bridges in all climates in many parts of the world, natural rubber bridge bearings are giving continuous excellent service, demonstrating convincingly their efficiency and durability. Natural rubber bearings possess distinct advantages over alternative metal roller types, being easier to install, free from corrosion and requiring no maintenance, factors important in the economics of bridge building. In use, natural rubber has proved superior to all other rubbers as bridge bearing material.
Doshin Pot bearings ensure the controlled transfer of forces between a structure’s superstructure and its substructure. They also facilitate rotations about every axis and movements in every direction. They are so conceived, that they transfer vertical forces to the substructure and permit rotations thanks to an high quality elastomeric pad which is enclosed in the bearing. Doshin Pot bearings are suitable for use in structures with low to high loading and frequent movements and rotations.
DOSHIN® SPHERICAL bearings are designed to transmit vertical forces in the bridge sub-structure and to facilitate rotations by means of a calotte and a concave lower part.
The flat sliding surface between the top of the calotte and a sliding plate accommodates longitudinal and transverse movements. Guide bars and a restraining ring are used to transmit horizontal forces.
