See full text

A greasable wheel hub (20) using a constant-velocity (CV) joint (22) as a hub spindle is taught. The wheel hub (20) includes a hub cover (28) attached to a hub body (24), which in turn is attached to a CV housing (32) and a CV bearing (34), both of which are portions of the CV joint (22). A grease (46) is injected through a grease fitting (36) into a grease trough (42) at the interface between the hub cover (28) and the hub body (24). This grease (46) is then conveyed through a plurality of grease passages (44) to the CV housing (32), where it provides lubrication for the CV joint (22). Another grease (47) is injected through another grease fitting (37) into another grease trough (43). This grease (47) is then conveyed though a plurality of other grease passages (45) and a plurality of grease channels (49) to the CV bearing (34), where it provides lubrication.
