ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system for the continuous lubrication of a rolling bearing. The rolling bearing is arranged in a bearing bore provided at a bearing bracket. The lubrication system comprises a reservoir containing a supply of lubricating oil, from which at least one wick leads to the bearing, the lubricating oil being suppliable to the bearing by the wick. To obtain as long as possible a continued lubrication period with as small as possible a supply of lubricating oil, one or more oilproof cavities are provided as lubricating oil reservoir in a separate bearing cover attachable to the bearing bracket. Such a bearing cover can be postfitted in machines to increase the period of continued lubrication.
