Abstract:
A journal bearing includes: a carrier ring; a plurality of bearing pads disposed on a radially inner side of a lower half region of the carrier ring; a pair of side plates disposed on both sides of the plurality of bearing pads with respect to an axial direction of the rotor shaft; and at least one oil-supply unit for supplying lubricant oil to the plurality of bearing pads. From among the at least one oil-supply unit, a first oil-supply unit disposed on a downstream side of a most downstream pad positioned most downstream of the plurality of bearing pads is configured to supply the lubricant oil toward a region below a corner portion of the most downstream pad, of a trailing edge surface of the most downstream pad, the corner portion being formed by an intersection between a pad surface of the most downstream pad and the trailing edge surface.

Claim (Index 1):
A journal bearing, comprising:\n a carrier ring; a plurality of bearing pads disposed on a radially inner side of a lower half region of the carrier ring, and configured to support a rotor shaft from below; a pair of side plates disposed on both sides of the plurality of bearing pads with respect to an axial direction of the rotor shaft; and at least one oil-supply unit for supplying lubricant oil to the plurality of bearing pads, wherein a gap is provided between an inner peripheral surface of each of the side plates and an outer peripheral surface of the rotor shaft, for bringing into communication outside and a bearing interior space surrounded by the pair of side plates, and wherein, from among the at least one oil-supply unit, a first oil-supply unit disposed on a downstream side of a most downstream pad positioned most downstream of the plurality of bearing pads is configured to supply the lubricant oil toward a region below a corner portion of the most downstream pad, of a trailing edge surface of the most downstream pad, the corner portion being formed by an intersection between a pad surface of the most downstream pad and the trailing edge surface.
