The air discharged into the pocket portion 12 passes through the exhaust passages 15 and 21 and is discharged to the outside of the vacuum chamber (atmosphere). The small amount of air that has not been discharged is squeezed out by a small gap between the guide bar 1 and the labyrinth partitions 13a to 13c, and is further sucked in by the rotary pump 24.25 via the passages 16.22 and 17.23. in this way,
Air leakage to the vacuum chamber is prevented by a labyrinth restriction and a rotary pump for forced exhaust.

This is because the gaps between the labyrinth partition walls 13a to 13c and the guide bar 1 are minute, so when the housing 11 is tilted, there is a possibility that the labyrinth partition walls 13a to 13c and the kite bar 1 will come into contact and be damaged. This is prevented by the sliding member 18.

(2) When the guide bar 1 is deflected in the bending direction, such as by its own weight, the guide bar 1 does not extend to the sliding member 18 and comes into contact with the labyrinth partition walls 13a and 13b, causing seizure or galling.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a porous pad that supports a guide bar through air supplied through the porous pad, and a porous pad that faces the guide bar through a small gap. , and a labyrinth partition to prevent the air from escaping along the guide bar, the labyrinth partition being made of the same wear-resistant porous material as the porous pad.

[Function] In this configuration, the guide bar is slidably supported by the porous pad through the supply air, and the supply air is
Because of the labyrinth partition wall, it does not leak into the vacuum and is collected by a suction pump, etc. However, since the material of the labyrinth partition wall is a wear-resistant porous member that has the same self-lubricating properties as the porous pad, metal-to-metal contact does not occur. Therefore, the guide bar can be guided without any scorching, galling, etc.

When processing and assembling this bearing, the porous butt and labyrinth partition wall are made of the same material, so they are ground at the same time.
The gap between the labyrinth partition wall and the guide bar is processed to be as small as the gap between the porous bat and the guide bar, thereby improving airtightness. Furthermore, since there is no need to provide a sliding member to prevent contact between the guide bar and the labyrinth partition wall, the structure can be made smaller accordingly, and the porous pad can be incorporated by press-fitting or the like without having to separate the housing.

In FIG. 1, 102 is a housing, 113a to 11
3C is a labyrinth partition made of a wear-resistant porous member having self-lubricating properties and made of the same material as the porous bat 3. That is, the present invention is particularly different from the conventional example shown in FIG. 2 in that the housing is constructed as a single member without being divided, the labyrinth partition wall has the same shape as the porous pad, and there is no sliding member.

In this configuration, the air supplied via the passage 4 is squeezed by the porous pad 3 and reaches the pocket 12.

Similarly, the air that has reached the pocket 14b is pumped to the suction pump 25.
The amount that is absorbed through the passages 17 and 23 and finally leaks into the vacuum chamber is extremely small as it passes through the gap between the labyrinth partition wall 113C and the guide bar 1. In order to minimize the amount of air leaking into the vacuum chamber, the labyrinth partition walls 113a to 11
The gap formed between the porous pad 3 and the guide bar 1 is approximately the same as the gap formed between the porous pad 3 and the guide bar 1 (approximately 5 μm).

Furthermore, the sides of the labyrinth partition walls 113a to 113C are sealed by applying an adhesive or the like to prevent air from passing through the inside thereof.

The labyrinth partition walls 113a to 113C are attached to the housing 102 by press fitting, shrink fitting, adhesive, etc., but after removing the cylindrical porous body, the pocket 14 is attached.
The portions a and 14b may be processed by cutting or the like. In this case, by scraping the porous body down to the housing 102 so that the partition walls 113a to 113C are independent as shown in FIG. Gas leakage can be prevented.

Note that although an example in which the present invention is applied to a radial bearing as shown in FIG. 1 has been described here, the present invention can also be similarly applied to an axial bearing or a bearing that combines radial and axial bearings. Can be done. Further, the bat and the labyrinth partition wall are not limited to porous materials, but may be made of solid lubricating materials. Further, as a method of restricting the air, methods such as self-control, orifice restriction, or surface restriction may be used.
