A self-lubricating saddle which continually lubricates the rotational elements thereof as the saddle is in use. Generally, the saddle includes a base saddle body (12), a surface plate (14), and a saddle head (16). A king pin (18) extending substantially through the center of these three components, provides a pivot point for horizontal rotation. A grease fitting (55) is located on an upper surface of the saddle head (16), in a position which is easily accessible to maintenance personnel. An inlet (54) extends from the grease fitting (55) through the saddle head (16) to a grease reservoir defined by a conduit or duct (52) on the lower surface plate of the saddle head (16). Grease or other lubricants are retained to provide continual lubrication of the rotational elements of the saddle, and also to provide lubricants directly to the rotational elements.

L'invention concerne une sellette autolubrifiée qui, lors de l'utilisation, lubrifie en permanence ses éléments rotatifs. La sellette comprend de manière générale un socle de sellette (12), une plaque de surface (14) et une tête de sellette (16). Une cheville (18) faisant saillie sensiblement à travers le centre de ces trois composants constitue un pivot permettant la rotation sur le plan horizontal. Une garniture de graissage (55) est disposée sur une surface supérieure de la tête de sellette (16), dans une position facilement accessible au personnel d'entretien. Une entrée (54) s'étend depuis la garniture de graissage (55) à travers la tête de sellette (16) vers le réservoir de graisse délimité par une conduite ou un canal (52) à la plaque de surface inférieure de la tête de sellette (16). La graisse ou les autres lubrifiants sont retenus de manière à assurer une lubrification continue des éléments rotatifs de la sellette; ils sont acheminés directement vers les éléments rotatifs.
