IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO LUBRICATED BEARINGS

摘要

A lubricated bearing has a rotatable structure which includes a housing with an opening at one end, a bearing cup and a retaining member. The retaining member grips the exterior of the bearing cup and the interior of the housing to secure the bearing cup within the housing with its mouth towards the opening and with lubricant spaces between the housing and bearing cup both above and below its rim. A stationary member has a spherical part which fits within the bearing cup to provide relatively rotatable bearing surfaces and a shaft which extends out of the housing through the opening.
