LUBRICANT CIRCULATING ANGULAR CONTACT BALL BEARING

摘要

An angular contact bearing having a porous, permeable separator for lubricant circulation is disclosed. The separator includes a cylindrical surface which wipingly engages a cylindrical surface continuous with the raceway on the outer race. The lubricant circulation is from the cylindrical surface of the race through the porous separator to the balls; the balls in turn redistributing the lubricant back to the raceways and cylindrical surface.
