ABSTRACT:
A hydrostatic journal bearing for a shaft of a heavy load, such as a metallurgical vessel, comprises an inner ring of spherical outer surface rigid with the shaft, a stationary base forming part of a housing, and a segmental shell resting on the base as a cradle for the ring. The upper shell surface has pockets for high-pressure oil, supporting the ring in operation, while the lower shell surface has similar pockets near its axially extending edges designed to maintain the shell curvature close to that of the ring. The shell may be split into two relatively axially shiftable coaxial subshells with further oil pockets at their interface.
