A multi-lobe bearing is of simple construction such that a foil sheet in the form of a closed loop is arranged on a journal shaft by joining both ends of two sheets together, with a bearing gap therebetween and filling a viscoelastic body in an air gap between the foil sheet and an inside of a bearing holding member, whereby the bearing gap between the journal shaft and the foil sheet is configured to be liable to generate a fluid pressure. Also, the bearing is simply constructed to be made easy in assembly, and in particular, appropriate in bearing the journal shaft having a small diameter.
