ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for lubricating a slow cycle stroke mechanism, such as that found in a wing flap of an aircraft. The lubricating apparatus moves in conjunction with the wing flap and replenishes lubricant to a ball screw actuator driving the wing flap. The apparatus includes a reservoir and a pumping mechanism for pumping lubricant from the reservoir to the ball screw actuator. A plunger reciprocates within a cylinder to pump lubricant. A compliant element that includes an end stop is positioned to prevent over travel by the plunger and to thereby prevent damage.
