やすい。2. Description of the Related Art A gas bearing is provided with a gas film between members that rotate with each other, and has little friction, so that it is mainly used for ultra-high speed rotation. In this bearing, when a load larger than the allowable load is applied during rotation, both members come into contact with each other, causing seizure in a short time, and easily damaged.
Further, even when stationary, if a load is applied without supplying the pressurized gas, the surface of the member is likely to be damaged and the performance may be impaired.

するものである。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to eliminate the above-mentioned inconvenience, to make the surface facing the gas film forming gap less likely to be damaged, and to obtain a bearing with more stable performance. .

部材表面を、黒鉛材を用いて、表面粗さを0.8〜1.
5Sに形成することを特徴とする気体軸受である。According to the present invention, the surface of one member facing the gas film forming gap is formed with a hard material such as hard chrome plating to have a surface roughness of 0.2 S or less. The surface roughness of the member surface of No. 1 is 0.8-1.
It is a gas bearing characterized by being formed in 5S.

状に形成した気体軸受に応用した気体軸受を包含する。Further, as a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above structure is applied to a gas bearing in which the gas film forming gap is formed in a substantially pincushion shape in which the radius increases in a curve as the radius advances from the center in the axial direction to the end. Included gas bearings.

ロメートル前後の凹凸のある状態とするのが良い。The smoother the surface of the hard material is, the better. It is more preferable that the surface of the hard material has a mirror finish of 0.1S or less. It is preferable that the surface of the graphite material has some degree of unevenness within the range that does not disturb the flow of gas through the gap, because it reduces friction, and it is difficult to process it to a highly smooth surface. It is preferable to have the unevenness of about 1 micrometer obtained in step 1.

【作用】本発明では、両部材が接触するときには、潤滑
性のある黒鉛材に平滑な硬質材が接触することになるの
で、摩擦がきわめて小さく、しかも黒鉛材の融点は極め
て高いので、焼き付きを生じにくいものとなる。In the present invention, when both members come into contact with each other, the smooth hard material comes into contact with the graphite material having lubricity, so that the friction is extremely small and the melting point of the graphite material is extremely high. It is unlikely to occur.

大し、気体膜形成間隙の断面積もなめらかに増大するか

とがない。さらに、間隙に角部がないため、両部材接触
時にも、荷重が集中することがなく、比較的強度の低い
黒鉛材を使用しても、損傷を生じにくい。When applied to a bearing having a structure in which the gap has a substantially pincushion shape, the radius of the gas film forming gap increases in a curved shape as the gas advances from the central portion to both ends, and the gas film forming gap increases. Since the cross-sectional area of the gas also increases smoothly, the gas flow becomes smooth and a strong gas film is formed. Therefore, even if a graphite material having irregularities on the surface is used, the permissible load is not reduced due to the turbulence of the gas flow. Furthermore, since there are no corners in the gap, the load is not concentrated even when both members are in contact with each other, and damage is less likely to occur even if a graphite material having a relatively low strength is used.
