Abstract
A hydro-dynamic fluid-bearing assembly constituted by bearing members disposed around a rotary shaft with the interposition of a film of pressure fluid. At least one of the bearing members is subject when the shaft is stopped to the action of a resilient member generating a limited pre-loading strictly necessary for maintaining the assembly in its correct interrelationship, the said resilient means being subject during operation of the shaft to the action of pressure fluid bled from the film of fluid under pressure lying beneath the bearing member and such that the load on the bearing member increases with the pressure of the fluid film.
