ABSTRACT:
A flexible arcuate one-piece reservoir member has a generally cylindrical outer surface with a flange projecting radially outwardly from that surface. The reservoir is attached to a conventional ball bearing by snapping the flange into a groove in the outer race of the bearing. Passageways extend through the reservoir member so that grease can be forced through the passageways into a cavity defined by the reservoir member and the adjacent portions of the bearing, thereby enabling grease in the bearing to ber replenished periodically.
