FIELD: machine building.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a bearing designed to support a shaft rotating about an axis. More specifically, the present invention relates to a radial or thrust bearing with a plurality of self-aligning segment pads respectively connected to the bearing housing through the bulkhead flexible support. This invention additionally relates to bearing operation method, as well as to bearing manufacturing method. Bearing (100) to support shaft (200) rotates about axis (A). Bearing (100) comprises: housing (120) of bearing and plurality of self-aligning segment pads (130), wherein each self-aligning segment pad is connected to housing (120) through the flexible bulkhead support (135) and has support surface (136) directed towards the shaft receiving space (125) configured to support the shaft. Support surface (136) of at least one self-aligning segment pad (130) of the plurality of self-aligning segment pads is provided with multiple openings (140) for feeding lubricant.
EFFECT: design and provide a bearing with self-aligning segment pads, as well as a method of its manufacturing, which provides high operating speeds without risk of overheating and instability.
