Abstract:
A bearing includes a bearing pad for supporting a rotary component and a housing attached to or formed integrally with the bearing pad. The housing includes a flexible column extending towards the bearing pad for providing the bearing pad with an airflow. The column supports the bearing pad from a location inward of an outer periphery of the bearing pad along an axial direction of the bearing. With such a configuration, a resistance of the bearing pad along a radial direction of the bearing is less at the outer periphery than a resistance of the bearing pad along the radial direction proximate the column.

Claim (Index 10):
The bearing of  claim 5 , wherein the column supports the bearing pad such that a resistance of the bearing pad along the radial direction at the outer periphery is less than a resistance of the bearing pad along the radial direction proximate the column.
