  • Patent number: 4342489
    Abstract: A bearing lubricant injector comprising a first ring member secured to a shaft which is rotatably supported by a bearing adjacent the first ring member. A second ring member is secured to the first ring member by a plurality circumferentially spaced stanchions to define a lubricant flow passage which directs an axial flow of lubricant into the bearing. The radially outer surface of the first ring member is inclined upwardly toward the bearing so that rotation of the ring centrifugally forces the lubricant into the bearing.
