    Pivot bearings depending upon shape of end shaft and bearing surfaces are shown below:

    1) Flat pivot bearings
    2) Flat collar pivot bearing
    3) Conical pivot bearing
    4) Truncated conical bearing

    Flat pivot bearing:

    If an elemental ring is considered on bearing surface,

    a) Area of ring is given as 2 π r δr
    b) Load acting on ring is given as p x 2 π r δr

    Frictional resistance offered by the ring is Fr = μ δW

    = 2 π μ p r δr
