ABSTRACT:
A bearing, particularly a heavy duty bearing, in which lubrication is effected by lubricant being picked up on a disc (27,28) mounted on the bearing shaft (21), the disc having, at its periphery, an axially extending ring (35) on the inner and outer surface of which the lubricant forms a film. During start-up, lubricant on the outer surface is scraped off by an external scraper (57) and falls under gravity onto the bearing surface and as the speed increases, lubricant on the inner surface is picked up by a scoop (38,39) to produce a pressure head sufficient to pump the lubricant to a reservoir from which it flows to the bearing surface under gravity. The lubricant is pumped to the reservoir through an external cooler (62) and an external filter (66).
