Systems for lubricant distribution

A method of distributing lubricant, comprising:

• delivering lubricant from a lubricant sump to an undercut groove of a rotating component of a lubricant distribution assembly via a hollow tube positioned within a lower portion of the lubricant distribution assembly;
• transporting the lubricant from the lower portion of lubricant distribution assembly to an upper portion of the lubricant distribution assembly by rotating the rotating component at a speed greater than or equal to a minimum angular speed;
• and
• distributing lubricant away from the lubricant distribution assembly by directing the lubricant to a lubricant deflector positioned within the upper portion of the lubricant distribution assembly.

A lubricant distribution assembly, comprising:

• a rotating component including an undercut groove configured to receive lubricant;
• a hollow tube configured to deliver the lubricant to the undercut groove;
• a baffle positioned within an upper portion of the lubricant distribution assembly with respect to gravity and configured to receive the lubricant from the undercut groove;
• wherein, the baffle is shaped as a V-shaped prism including a bottom edge positioned perpendicular to a recessed area of the rotating component.
