Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ultra-precision movement and ultra-precision measurement, and relates to an aerostatic pressure thrust bearing, which is mainly used for the design of moving parts in photolithography machines, three-coordinate measuring machines and other equipment. Background technique
[0002] Aerostatic thrust bearings have a series of advantages such as no wear, low friction, no creeping at low speeds, and high motion precision, so they are widely used in the fields of ultra-precision motion and precision measurement, but at the same time, they also have low rigidity, low load-carrying capacity, and poor stability. shortcoming.
[0003] Existing aerostatic thrust bearings usually use small hole throttling, high-pressure gas enters the air cavity through the small hole restrictor, and then enters the bearing gap from the edge of the air cavity; the pressure in the air cavity gradually decreases along the bearing gap, ...
