ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning, self-contained, self-lubricating cartridge bearing assembly including a nonporous bearing member having a central bore sized to receive a rotatable shaft. The bearing member has an aperture extending radially from its central bore to its outer surface to receive a contactor made of fibrous material. The bearing member is made of aluminum alloy. The bearing member is held in a mounting member by two retainers. An oil-impregnated wicking material surrounds the bearing member and contactor. An oil slinger sized to fit on the rotatable shaft for rotation therewith is positioned adjacent to the bearing member to sling lubricant radially outward. End caps are provided which retain the oil-impregnated wicking material inside the bearing assembly.
