Abstract
A self-compensating hydrostatic planar bearing device comprises: a flow restrictor, disposed on a slide-table, having a flexible supporting unit extendedly formed on an end thereof; a first chamber, formed on another end of the flow restrictor opposite to that of the flexible supporting unit for communicating with a pipe disposed penetrating through the flow restrictor; and a second chamber, formed between the supporting unit and the slide-table for communicating with the first chamber through a communication hole. Operationally, when the load is changing, the pressure to the first chamber will be changing accordingly while the pressure change will be transferred to the second chamber through the communication hole for causing the flexible supporting unit to deform and thereby further causing the volume of the first chamber to change so that the pressure of the first chamber is consequently changed therewith and thus accomplishes a self-compensating process of the bearing's stiffness.
