Abstract:
A first radial bearing includes nozzles in the stator at a radius r1 and a bearing surface on a circular section of the rotor at a radius R1. A second radial bearing includes nozzles in the stator at a radius r2 and a bearing surface on the rotor at a radius R2. An axial bearing includes a nozzle in the stator and a bearing surface on an axial end of the rotor, which runs orthogonally to the rotation axis and has an outer radius R3. The second radial bearing is formed on an end section of the rotor, which has a smaller radius than or a radius that decreases away from the circular section, so that R2<R1 and r2<r1. The third bearing surface is formed on an end of the end section facing away from the circular section, so that R3≤R2.
