<p>In order to appropriately distribute a lubricating oil of high viscosity to lubrication points through a simple construction in oil and air lubrication, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, three distributors 8, 9 and 10 are provided between oil feed passages 7, the most downstream one of which is connected at the downstream end of the passage to a fourth branch passage 14. Quantities of the lubricating oil are passed through the holes A, B and C of the first distributor 8, those E and F of the second distributor 9 and that H of the third distributor 10. Other quantities of the oil, which are nearly equal to each other, are sent to three lubrication points through the other holes D, G and I of the distributors 8, 9 and 10 and a first, a second and a third branch passages 11, 12 and 13. The three lubrication points are a point at contact-type oil seals 5, and two points in a four-train conical roller bearing 3. The oil flowing through the oil feed passage 7 downstream of the third distributor 10 is all sent to the other lubrication point at contact-type oil seals 6 through the fourth branch passage 14.</p> |
