Patent ID: 7775324

Claim:
A lubrication assembly mounted to a first surface is provided for lubricating a second surface, said lubrication assembly comprising: a first tube adapted to be coupled to the first surface, said first tube defining a first reservoir, and said first tube including a first side having a plurality of laterally spaced apart holes extending into said first reservoir; a second tube adapted to be coupled to the first surface, said second tube defining a second reservoir, said second tube including a first side having a plurality of laterally spaced apart holes extending into said second reservoir, wherein said first and second tubes are fixedly secured together with said first sides of said first and second tubes abutting such that said first reservoir laterally overlaps at least a portion of said second reservoir and said plurality of laterally spaced apart holes in said first tube are offset laterally from said plurality of laterally spaced apart holes in said second tube; a material disposed within said first reservoir and said second reservoir, said material including a lubricant; and a wiper coupled between said first tube and said second tube, said wiper having a first portion in fluid communication with said material and a second portion disposed for continuous contact with the second surface for automatically transferring and supplying said lubricant from said first reservoir and said second reservoir to the second surface, whereby said lubricant reduces frictional properties of the second surface, wherein said first portion includes a plurality of laterally spaced apart fingers alternating between extending through said plurality of laterally spaced apart holes in said first tube into said first reservoir and said plurality of laterally spaced apart holes in said second tube into said second reservoir.
