Summary

Basic behaviour of a swing journal bearing at the small end of a connecting rod in reciprocating compressors for household refrigerators is measured. The experimental result that an oil film was hardly formed at the bearing agreed well with the theoretical result calculated using the lubrication theory based on the Reynolds equation. All these things confirmed that the swing journal bearing at the small end of a connecting rod was under a severe lubricating condition.
