ABSTRACT:
The lubrication system for rotary mechanisms of the Wankel type, having a housing in which a rotor planetates, comprises an elongated, shallow trough in the inner peripheral surface of the trochoid housing of the mechanism, which trough extends substantially across the entire width of the surface and with its longitudinal axis canted relative to the trace line of the inner peripheral surface. A supply means is provided to conduct metered amounts of lubricant to the trough from a suitable source of lubricant to fill and maintain the trough in a full condition so that the apex seal blade carried by the rotor picks-up and distributes lubricant along the inner peripheral surface.
