AIR FOIL BEARING AND COMPRESSOR INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17984555 titled 'AIR FOIL BEARING AND COMPRESSOR INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an air foil bearing that consists of a bearing plate and a material layer fixed to it. The material layer is made of a different material than the bearing plate and has a higher viscoelasticity.

  • The air foil bearing includes a bearing plate and a material layer.
  • The material layer is fixed to the bearing plate and made of a different material.
  • The viscoelasticity of the material layer is greater than that of the bearing plate.
  • The compressor includes this air foil bearing.

Potential Applications:

  • Compressors in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.
  • Turbines and generators.
  • HVAC systems.
  • Power plants and energy production.

Problems Solved:

  • Reduced friction and wear in air foil bearings.
  • Improved stability and performance of compressors.
  • Enhanced efficiency and reliability of rotating machinery.
  • Reduced maintenance and downtime.

Benefits:

  • Increased lifespan of air foil bearings.
  • Improved energy efficiency and reduced power consumption.
  • Enhanced stability and performance of compressors.
  • Reduced maintenance and operating costs.
  • Increased reliability and uptime of machinery.


Original Abstract Submitted

An air foil bearing includes a bearing plate having a plate shape and a material layer coupled and fixed to the bearing plate and made of a different material from the bearing plate. A viscoelasticity of the material layer is greater than a viscoelasticity of the bearing plate. A compressor includes an air foil bearing.
