Abstract
Provided is a floating-sleeve hybrid fluid bearing. The floating-sleeve hybrid fluid bearing may comprise: a bearing housing which is mounted by ring-coupling to the outer circumferential surface of a rotary shaft; and a floating sleeve which is mounted between the rotary shaft and the bearing housing so that there is a gap between the floating sleeve and the rotary shaft, and between the floating sleeve and the bearing housing, wherein the rotation of the floating sleeve is constrained by the bearing housing during the rotation of the rotary shaft, and one side of the floating sleeve in the circumferential direction is open in the radial direction.
