# Exciter lubrication system

## Abstract

The specification discloses vibration exciter apparatus (40) having an exciter housing (50), two bearing means (108) each supporting a driven shaft (68, 69) carrying eccentric mass means (107), the driven shafts (68, 69) carrying intermeshing gears (80, 81), the exciter housing having an array of bore passages (91) extending from an upper wall (51) of the exciter housing (50) to a lower wall (53) of the exciter housing (50), and a mounting structure plate (60) securable to mineral processing or handling equipment intended to be vibrated by said exciter apparatus (40), said separated lubrication liquid sumps (70, 71, 101) for each of the bearing means (108) and the intermeshing gears (80, 81), said exciter housing further having said mounting structure plate (60) having an array of fastener receiving zones (98) whereby elongated fastener means (99) can pass through the bore passages (91) from the upper wall (51) to be engaged in the fastener receiving zones (98).
