ABSTRACT:
The apparatus and method provide an arrangement in which molten babbitt is fed into a spinning cylindrical bearing shell from a stationary molten babbitt tank having a babbitt pump immersed in the tank at an intermediate level, with the pump discharge being connected to piping to discharge molten babbitt into a babbitt trough from which the babbitt feeds to the interior of the spinning shell. The babbitt pump is driven for a controlled time period to feed a specified volume of babbitt into the trough and bearing in a continuous uninterrupted flow so that a carefully metered amount of molten babbitt is fed to the bearing. The apparatus also includes a control system operable to energize and deenergize various operating elements in a sequence including the drive motors, means for admitting a coolant about the hot spinning bearing shell, and the molten babbitt pump.
