Abstract
A static bearing, more particularly a static gas bearing, with a component to be journalled, which is movable with respect to a fixedly arranged bearing part. The bearing part is provided with one or more openings for the supply of a bearing medium between the bearing surfaces facing each other of the component and of the bearing part. The openings communicate with a supply of a bearing medium. A closure member is resiliently arranged opposite each of the supply openings in such a manner that with increasing pressure of the medium in the bearing gap between the surfaces of the component and the bearing part the closure member is moved away from the relevant supply openings and the flow resistance between the supply and the supply opening decreases.
