Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The real deformation of elastic chambers of the thrust bearing on a hydraulic support under a load is plane-inclined in certain cases.

  2. 2.

    Adjustment of the load on the bearing segments with installation of one indicator on the chamber does not always provide the necessary accuracy.

  3. 3.

    It is advisable to adjust the bearing according to the method presented with the installation of two indicators on the chamber, which provides the necessary accuracy of distributing the load between segments.
