Abstract
A device for providing self-lubrication to a slackless coupling system for a railway vehicle, specifically an articulated connector. The device comprises a self-lubricating member having a predetermined size and shape. The self-lubricating member is integrally formed from a non-stick material. The self-lubricating member has an inner surface and an outer surface, whereby such non-stick material will provide sufficient lubrication between the inner surface of the self-lubricating member, and a first surface of a spherical member coming in contact with the inner surface of the self-lubricating member, thereby allowing unrestricted movement of such spherical member there against, thus causing a reduction in L/V ratio when such self lubricating member is used in such coupling system.
