ABSTRACT:
A bearing for a large rotating shaft machine is subject to differing conditions of operations. In order to accommodate these differing conditions of operation, the lubricant flows throughout the bearings may have to be changed. The prior art method of changing flow distributions throughout a bearing would be to remachine orifice passageways formed in the base ring. The present invention overcomes this difficulty by proposing a standardized base ring and multi-variable orifices which can be remachined and reinserted into the base ring with minimal difficulty and machining.
