The invention provides a bearing structure with a lubricant circulation that does not depend on gravity. An absorbent lubricant reservoir contacts a conical shaft portion so as to convey lubricant from the reservoir to a ball or like bearing. Lubricant passing the bearing is flung off a rotating flange by centrifugal force to a collector and then fed back by wicks to the reservoir. Air circulation is also provided by fan blades on the flange drawing air through the bearing from the reservoir side and returning it through passages around the bearing. |
