Flexure Bearings

Flexure Bearings
Flexure Bearings are engineered to be compliant in one or more angular degrees of freedom. Flexure bearings are often part of compliant mechanisms. Flexure bearings serve much of the same function as conventional bearings or hinges in applications which require angular compliance. However, flexures require no lubrication and exhibit very low or no friction.
Application: Door Hinges, Lids for Pez dispensers, Flip-top covers, etc.
