ABSTRACT:
A bearing lubrication device for use in ring-oiled journal bearings and the like in which a generally circular ring member is eccentrically disposed around the rotatable shaft in the bearing assembly. The ring has an outer surface, right and left sides extending downwardly from the outer surface at a predetermined angle, most preferably about 30 degrees, for a predetermined distance and then radially inwardly, generally perpendicular to the outer surface for a predetermined distance, and an inner surface, said inner surface having at least one, but preferably a plurality of grooves therein. As rotation occurs at high forward speeds, improved lubricant delivery, stability of operation and bearing performance capability are realized.
