A bearing system can reduce the relative velocity between a bearing member
and a rotation shaft and a rotating member to decrease a load on the
bearing member although the rotation shaft and the rotating member rotate
in opposite directions with the bearing member therebetween. The bearing
system includes a case and a rotation shaft supported by the case. A
rotating member is disposed coaxially outside the rotation shaft and
rotates in the direction opposite to that of the rotation shaft. A
housing is interposed between the rotation shaft and the rotating member
and is fixed to the case. A bearing member that rotatably supports the
rotating member is interposed between the housing and the rotating
member.
