Abstract
A lubrication system for a thrust bearing which frictionally supports a rotating collar. A plurality of bearing pads are spaced apart around the bearing, and the bearing support ring has threaded openings in the spaces between the pads and nozzles are threaded into the openings. The nozzles have oil passageways which direct oil to the pads and rotating collar for lubricating same. There is only one large oil passageway in each nozzle, so there is no clogging of the nozzles, and the oil passageway outlet can be directed to spray the oil onto the pad where the collar is rotating toward that pad, for optimum lubrication.
