Abstract
The combination of a supporting member adapted to be rotated at relatively high rotational speeds and a mist lubricating means. The rotational member supports at least one bearing structure adjacent the periphery of the member such that with high rotational speeds of the member, the bearing structure is subjected to high centrifugal forces. The mist lubricating means supplies an essentially weightless lubricating mist to the bearing structure when the supporting member is rotated.
