ABSTRACT:
A dynamic pressure bearing device induced a housing having a sleeve and a thrust receiver and a shaft fit into the sleeve. Herringbone-shaped grooves for generating dynamic pressure comprising outer groove segments and inner group segments are disposed to at least one of the inner cylindrical surface of the sleeve and the outer cylindrical surface of the shaft at two axially spaced apart positions. The axial length of the outer groove segment is longer than that of the inner groove segment, and the difference of the axial length for the outer and the inner groove segments is greater in the lower herringbone-shaped grooves than in the upper herringbone-shaped grooves.
