<p>The present invention is related to a conical air bearing comprising one or more flexible foils (11) adapted for enveloping a conically shaped portion of a shaft. The conical foil air bearing comprises a self- aligning mechanism (15) in the form of a kinematic support, which guarantees that the foil envelopes the shaft so as to minimise air lost and malfunctions. A conical air bearing with flexible conical bearing surface is provided as well.</p> |
