Suspenison Bearing Lubricating System
Abstract
Disclosed is a Suspension Bearing Lubricating System, lubricating moving parts engaging with pivoting suspension component bearings used in street motorcycles, dirt bikes, all-terrain vehicles and various other machines. The Suspension Bearing Lubricating System comprises of a bolt hollowed internally and capped with a grease fitting (or form of lubrication receptacle) or a bolt which is hollow at both ends but solid in the center and a specialized bushing allowing for the flow of grease. Lubricant will be inserted via a lubricant receptacle; lubricant will travel into the bolt then out of holes in the shaft of the bolt which will allow passage of lubricant into bushing if applicable. Once lubricant reaches specialized bushing it will travel into integrated grooves to holes in the bushing then out, directly in contact with the suspension component bearings.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A system for internally greasing suspension component bearings which use a pivot bolt for a swing arm and linkage suspension assembly, comprising:
A specialized, pivot bolt allowing lubricant to travel to the suspension component's specialized bushings; and A specialized bushing designed for lubricant distribution throughout said bushing then lubricant exiting into bearings.
2 . The specialized pivot bolt as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of (a) hollow passageway(s) inside of the shaft of the bolt means for holding and later distributing the lubricant.
3 . The specialized pivot bolt as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of threads to receive lubricant receptacle at the opening(s) of the said passageway(s) of the bolt's shaft.
4 . The specialized pivot bolt as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of lubricant receptacle(s) threaded into threads at passageway opening(s) of claim 2 ; to receive lubricant and allow it to enter the hollow passageway.
5 . The specialized pivot bolt as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of holes in the shaft of the bolt for allowing lubricant out of the passageway(s) of claim 2 .
6 . The specialized bushing as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of grooves inside the bushing allow lubricant to travel to exit holes.
7 . The specialized bushing as recited in claim 1 , further comprising of holes for allowing lubricant to flow from the grooves of claim 6 directly into the suspension component bearings.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
