ABSTRACT:
An axial shaft is supported within a housing by a plurality of bearing foils which are cantilevered from the housing by a series of rotatably mounted supports. The supports are provided with gear teeth and a ring gear which surrounds the housing is engageable with the gear teeth of the supports to simultaneously rotate these supports relative to the housing and adjust the preload of the bearing foils against the shaft.
