Could the experts please analyze what is the purpose of grooving the compressor bearings?

Is there any significance to the different shapes of the grooves? What is the purpose of the grooves on the back side of the tiles?
I’m new to this and don’t understand many things; I hope experts can give some guidance
It should be an oil supply tank, whose function is to ensure even distribution of lubricating oil. To understand the principle, it is for reference that an oil film is formed from the oil inlet hole to the bearing surface.
Lubricating oil groove: The lubricating oil is sprayed through small holes between the bearing shells and the shaft to form an oil film
As I understand it, if grooves are made in the bricks, the oil should flow along those grooves; it’s only then that the oil film won’t form properly
Oil tank – the temperature of this tile must be high; creating grooves is intended for lubrication
All oil grooves utilize forced lubrication; there is pressure in the incoming oil, and oil leakage occurs only on both sides of the bearing shells. The oil holes are all used for the intake of oil
Please pay attention to the amount of area where oil can be exposed; the oil supply groove is under certain pressure, and taking all factors into account, the goal is ultimately to create an oil film between the bearing shells and the shaft. For reference.
Allocate storage oil volume for better lubrication and flushing of the interface
Does this tilting bearing come with a top shaft oil?
