Q

In a compression type automatic grease cup, the lubricant is forced into the bearing by__________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Automatic grease cup operation on machinery bearings • Difference between manual lubrication methods and automatic feed devices • Role of stored mechanical energy vs. gravity in feeding lubricant

💭 Think About

• Which choice describes something that works by itself over time without a person repeatedly operating it? • Which option actually provides a continuous force on the grease, instead of just offering a connection or initial charge of grease? • In an automatic device mounted above, beside, or below a bearing, would gravity alone reliably push heavy grease into a tight bearing clearance?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are manual methods or fittings rather than truly automatic systems • Consider that grease is thick—verify which method can continuously push viscous lubricant into a bearing without operator action • Ask: which choice can be built into the cup so it works independently after initial setup?
