A compact bearing is produced by a sliding bearing and has a sealing arrangement for water pumps. The bearing includes a sliding bearing bushing that includes an inner sliding surface and a radial recess having an axial sliding surface, a shaft collar, and a wet-side shaft seal arranged between the wet side and the sliding bearing bushing. A dry-side shaft seal is arranged between the sliding bearing bushing and the dry side. A lubricant reservoir with a substrate, which is porous in at least some sections, is arranged between the wet-side shaft seal and the sliding bearing bushing. The lubricant reservoir includes, in pores of the substrate, a lubricant insoluble in water, and a volume of the lubricant reservoir and a volume of a lubricant filling a total volume of spaces between the wet-side shaft seal and the dry-side shaft seal.

A system includes a bearing, a lubricant line, a vessel and a sensor. The lubricant line is designed to introduce lubricant from a bearing gap of the bearing into the vessel. The sensor is designed to measure at least one physical variable of lubricant that is situated in the vessel. The vessel includes an outlet or overflow. The system includes a lubricant sump and a device for introducing lubricant from the sump into the bearing gap of the bearing.

A rolling bearing having a sealing arrangement, preferably as a compact bearing and seal for water pumps, is proposed having two axially adjacent rolling-element rows between an outer ring and a shaft bearing section, and a wet-side shaft seal and a dry-side shaft seal. A lubricant reservoir with a substrate that is porous in at least some sections is arranged circumferentially in a radial contact to the shaft section and the outer ring; wherein the lubricant reservoir in pores of the substrate, includes a lubricant insoluble in water, and a volume of the lubricant reservoir and a volume of a lubricant filling with the lubricant take up a total volume of spaces between the wet-side shaft seal and the dry-side shaft seal.

A sliding bearing having a sealing arrangement for water pumps, configured to radially mount and seal a shaft in a housing between a wet side and a dry side. The sliding bearing and the sealing arrangement include a sliding bearing bushing made of a sintering material for radial mounting of the shaft, and a dry-side shaft seal arranged between the sliding bearing bushing and the dry side. A wet-side shaft seal is arranged between the wet side and the sliding bearing bushing and a lubricant reservoir with a substrate, made of a non-sintered material, which is porous in at least some sections, is arranged at least between the wet-side shaft seal and the sliding bearing bushing. The lubricant reservoir includes, in pores of the substrate, a lubricant insoluble in water. A volume of the lubricant reservoir and a volume of a lubricant filling take up a total volume of spaces between the wet-side shaft seal and the dry-side shaft seal.

A servo press machine includes an eccentric shaft, a connecting rod, a slide, an eccentric shaft-side sliding surface, a connecting rod-side sliding surface, an oil supply port, and a supply mechanism. The oil supply port opens on the eccentric shaft-side sliding surface or the connecting rod-side sliding surface, and supplies a lubricant between the eccentric shaft-side sliding surface and the connecting rod-side sliding surface. The supply mechanism supplies the lubricant to the oil supply port. The eccentric shaft-side sliding surface is formed on the eccentric shaft that is rotationally driven by a servomotor. The oil supply port is formed on the connecting rod-side sliding surface of the connecting rod that moves upward and downward due to the rotational driving of the eccentric shaft.
