In air bearings, the balls are replaced by a cushion of air. The most common application of air bearings is the hovercraft. Large fans blow underneath the hovercraft and the air is trapped under a flexible rubber 'skirt'. This cushion not only supports the craft’s weight but also acts as a soft spring, which allows it to smoothly float over water or land. A similar principle is used by air bearings, where high pressure air is fed into the gap between stationary bearings and a rotational shaft. The gap is very small - around 1/100 of a millimetre, allowing the air pressure to be maintained within t...
