ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure concerns resiliently mounted pad type journal bearings. Compensation for lateral movement of a journal due to shifts in loading is achieved by varying the profile of the hydrodynamic wedge between one or more of the bearing pads and the journal. Journal bearings according to the present invention are appropriate for either mono-directional or bi-directional journal rotation.
