[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the conventional hydrostatic bearing pad as described above, the bearing gap between the pad and the support is normally only about several μm, and therefore the bearing member and Strict precision is required for the flatness and parallelism of the fixed member on the bearing surface side and the clearance dimension, and machining is extremely difficult. Moreover, since only the outer peripheral surface of the bearing member is supported by the fixing member, when pressurized air is supplied to the air chamber, the central portion is bent outward to bend and the flatness of the bearing surface is impaired. Get lost.

Furthermore, when porous graphite is used as the porous material of the bearing member, conventionally, the diameter of each particle is non-uniform, so that the distribution of open pores is not uniform as described later, and the open pores are continuous. In order to do so, the individual open pores were also made larger. Therefore, the volume ratio of the whole open pores,
That is, the distribution ratio of pores becomes high, the gas flow rate per unit area of the bearing surface tends to be higher than the design value, and in addition, as mentioned above, the distribution of open pores becomes non-uniform, so an appropriate uniform distribution is achieved. It was necessary to adjust the flow rate so that the flow rate could be obtained.

This flow rate adjustment work is performed after finishing processing steps such as cutting and grinding.
By coating or impregnating the bearing surface with resin, etc. and measuring the gas permeation flow rate, the resin is removed little by little with a solvent until a suitable value is obtained, to achieve uniformity. I have to rely on it, it is difficult to stabilize the quality,
In addition, it takes a lot of time and labor, which is an obstacle to mass production.

[Operation] According to the present invention, carbon-based porous graphite having a uniform particle size and distribution is used for the bearing member, and
The bearing member is housed in the housing surface of the rigid housing in which a supply hole for supplying pressurized air and a plurality of air grooves formed concentrically around the supply hole are formed, and the outer peripheral surface of the bearing member. The ridged surface formed between the housing side surface of the housing and the air groove and the surface of the bearing member in contact with the ridged surface are respectively bonded with an adhesive, so that the air is guided from the supply air supply hole to the plurality of air grooves. Pressurized air can be evenly dispersed and permeated from the air grooves into the carbon-based porous graphite bearing member, and can be ejected while maintaining a substantially uniform pressure on the bearing surface side. Further, since the pressure receiving surface side of the bearing member is adhered and held to the housing with an appropriate interval, the rigidity as a whole is enhanced and the bearing member is not floated by air pressure.

Here, since the porous member forming the bearing member 2 is obtained by firing after being formed by cold isotropic working press, the particle diameter of the raw material is substantially uniform, and The open pores also have a uniform distribution state, and the flow rate of the gas passing therethrough can be made uniform. Furthermore, by constructing the hydrostatic bearing pad 1 with two parts of the bearing member 2 and the housing 3 as in this example, the flatness and the parallelism are required for the bearing surface 2 of the bearing member 2.
It is only A and the lower surface 3B of the housing 3, and the processing becomes easier. Further, the deformation of the bearing member due to the pressurized air is minute as described above, the flatness of the bearing surface 2A is not destroyed, and the fatigue of the bearing member due to the repeated supply and stop of the pressurized air. And shape deterioration can be prevented.

In the figure, C represents the supply distribution of the working air on the pressure receiving surface side, whereas the flow rate distribution of the permeated air shown on the bearing surface side is as shown by distribution B ′ in the case of FIG. 3A. There will be a large imbalance. On the other hand, in FIG. 3B, a substantially uniform flow rate distribution B is obtained. It should be noted that although such a phenomenon has been confirmed by an experiment by the applicant of the present invention, this is because the conventional bearing member 11
In this case, the particles K ′ are coarser than the particles K of the bearing member 2, and the distribution density is coarse, and the open pores are formed unevenly. Furthermore, since the porous material of the form used in this example has a self-lubricating action,
