The invention is par- The cap 3l] has a shallow outer recess 4ta to ticulariy applicable to vertical spindles such as clear the outer edge of the flange 2l and to reare used in lens-grinding machines or in other 5 ceive dirt or abrasive, and also has a shallow regrinding or polishing machines. cess 42 on its under side to clear the upper part In such machines in which line loose abrasive of the upper bearing Il. The ball bearings Il is used, it has been found extremely diiiicult to and I2 are not shown in detail but may be of any prevent entrance of dirt or abrasive to the bearusual commercial form.
The packing ring 35 is formed of a firm felt ings, with consequent rapid wear and short life.
