However, in such conventional technology, the distance between the thrust hydrostatic bearings is long, and the linear expansion coefficients of the bearing metal and spindle over that length are different (steel: approximately 12×10 -6 /℃, gun metal: Approximately 18.3×
10 -6 /℃), as the temperature rises due to spindle rotation, etc., the distance between the thrust static pressure bearing and the sliding surface of the spindle decreases, and seizure due to this must be taken into consideration. Due to its small size, it has not been possible to fully utilize the advantage of this type of bearing device, which is to increase the supporting rigidity of the thrust hydrostatic bearing.
The present invention attempts to solve such problems.

Next, to explain the operation of this embodiment, first, the pressurized lubricant from the lubricant inlet 23a is supplied to the bearing metal 3.
It is supplied to a radial static pressure bearing 31a and thrust static pressure bearings 32a and 33a provided at 0, and supports the spindle 40 under static pressure. The spindle 40 supported by static pressure is rotationally driven by a spindle drive motor via a pulley 50 etc., while the grinding wheel G attached to the lower end of the main shaft 13 which is rotatably supported by the main spindle head 12 is rotated together with the main spindle head 12. The workpiece W, which is lowered by the feed motor 14 and held by the vacuum chuck 55 on the rotary table 14, is subjected to surface grinding.
Ambient temperature changes and static pressure bearings 31a, 32a, 33
Even if the temperatures of the bearing metal 30 and the spindle 40 change due to heat generated by the thrust bearings 32a, 33a and the spindle 40, the thrust static pressure bearings 32a, 33a and the spindle 40 will not slide because both members 30, 40 are made of the same material and have approximately the same coefficient of thermal expansion. The gap between the surfaces 46 and 47 hardly changes and is maintained at the required minimum gap. Therefore, the support rigidity of the thrust hydrostatic bearing 32a, which mainly supports the processing reaction force, is maintained at the maximum, so the processing accuracy is improved by temperature changes. will not decrease.
