ABSTRACT:
A seal and bearing assembly for fabric treatment machines includes a bearing housing mounted on the machine shell providing a bearing journaling a rotatable shaft. A seal retainer is separately mounted on the shell inboard of the bearing housing and provides seals which normally prevent leakage along the shaft toward the bearing. The seal retainer and bearing housing are axially spaced and cooperate to define a drain chamber sufficiently large to prevent clogging by lint and the like. Release of the housing and movement thereof away from the shell provides access to the seal retainer for replacement of worn seals.
