Abstract
A hydrostatic bearing assembly for a shaft is disclosed, which consists of a base ring, two side rings enclosed up the base ring at both sides, and a plurality of hydrostatic blocks fixed respectively on surfaces of the base ring and of the side rings corresponded to the shaft, as result to hold the shaft to resist against loadings from the axial direction and/or the radial direction and provide lubrication through oil passages inside. These hydrostatic blocks are locked with screws or bolts on the base ring and on the side rings in order to be replaced individually on site.
