Method for assembling superconductive bearing device

PURPOSE: To improve rigidity and load capacity, prevent the shaft deflection of a rotating body and stably support the rotating body in non-contact state. CONSTITUTION: A superconductor 17 is preliminarily cooled and held in superconductive state. A vertical shaft-like rotating body 2 and the superconductor 17 are arranged in such a manner that a ring permanent magnet part 9 provided concentrically and firmly to the vertical shaft-like rotating body 2 in this state is opposed to the superconductor 17 with a vertical space.
