The lubrication nozzle comprises a nozzle body provided with a lubricant supply channel, and at least two spray heads each comprising an outlet orifice in communication with the supply channel. The nozzle also comprises at least one adjustment means on which a first one of the spray heads is placed so as to modify the spacing between the outlet orifices of the said spray heads when there is an eccentric rotation.

1. A lubrication nozzle comprising: a nozzle body provided with a lubricant supply channel,a first axis positioned axially along a radial center of the nozzle body, the nozzle body having a side facing in a direction in which lubricant is to be sprayed;a first spray nozzle being movably located on the nozzle body while being maintained and fixed in an orientation parallel to a second axis, the second axis being spaced from and parallel to the first axis, motion of the first spray nozzle about the second axis not resulting in the first spray nozzle being aligned askew with the second axis,a second spray nozzle located on the nozzle body and fixed in an orientation parallel to the first axis such that the second spray nozzle cannot be positioned askew relative to the first axis, the first spray nozzle and the second spray nozzle both extending from the side of the nozzle body, wherein rotation of the first spray nozzle about the second axis results in a distance between a first outlet orifice of the first spray nozzle and a second outlet orifice of the second spray nozzle being adjusted. 2. The lubrication nozzle according to claim 1, wherein the nozzle body further comprises an insert positioned therein that is rotatable about the second axis, the first spray nozzle being located on the insert, rotation of the insert about the second axis resulting in the first spray nozzle rotating about the second axis and adjusting the distance between the first outlet orifice of the first spray nozzle and the second outlet orifice of the second spray nozzle. 3. The nozzle according to claim 2, wherein the insert can be secured in position relative to the second axis during normal operation of the lubrication nozzle. 4. The nozzle according to claim 3, wherein the nozzle body further comprises a housing, the insert being rotatably positioned in the housing. 5. The nozzle according to claim 4, wherein the nozzle body further comprises an insert support located in the housing, the insert being positioned in the insert support, the second spray head being located on the insert support. 6. The nozzle according to claim 5, wherein an outer surface of the insert further comprises a thread interacting with a matching thread in a bore defined by the insert support. 7. The nozzle according to claim 6, further comprising a seal mounted in the bore of the insert support and capable of interacting by interference with a shoulder of the outer surface of the insert to limit axial movement of the insert. 8. The nozzle according to claim 3, wherein the insert further comprises a hollow to receive an operating key for the adjustment of an angular position of the said eccentric. 9. The nozzle according to claim 6, wherein the rotational position of the insert is fixed during use of the lubrication nozzle by contact between the thread of the insert and the matching thread of the insert support. 10. The nozzle according to claim 1, further comprising a valve mounted inside the lubricant supply channel and biased to close the lubricant supply channel by a spring positioned thereagainst, lubricant traversing the spray nozzle toward the first spray nozzle and the second spray nozzle being capable of overcoming a force of the spring and moving the valve such that the lubricant supply channel is open. 11. A lubrication system comprising: a plurality of nozzles, each one of the plurality having:a nozzle body provided with a lubricant supply channel, a first axis positioned axially along a radial center of the nozzle body, the nozzle body having a side facing in a direction in which lubricant is to be sprayed;a first spray nozzle being movably located on the nozzle body while being maintained and fixed in an orientation parallel to a second axis, the second axis being spaced from and parallel to the first axis, motion of the first spray nozzle about the second axis not resulting in the first spray nozzle being aligned askew with the second axis,a second spray nozzle located on the nozzle body and fixed in an orientation parallel to the first axis such that the second spray nozzle cannot be positioned askew relative to the first axis, the first spray nozzle and the second spray nozzle both extending from the side of the nozzle body, wherein rotation of the first spray nozzle about the second axis results in a distance between a first outlet orifice of the first spray nozzle and a second outlet orifice of the second spray nozzle being adjusted. 12. A method for mounting a lubrication nozzle comprising: providing a nozzle body, a first axis positioned axially along a radial center of the nozzle body, the nozzle body having a side facing in a direction in which lubricant is to be sprayed;providing a first spray nozzle being movably located on the nozzle body while being maintained and fixed in an orientation parallel to a second axis, the second axis being spaced from and parallel to the first axis, motion of the first spray nozzle about the second axis not resulting in the first spray nozzle being aligned askew with the second axis,providing a second spray nozzle located on the nozzle body and fixed in an orientation parallel to the first axis such that the second spray nozzle cannot be positioned askew relative to the first axis, the first spray nozzle and the second spray nozzle both extending from the side of the nozzle body, wherein rotation of the first spray nozzle about the second axis results in a distance between a first outlet orifice of the first spray nozzle and a second outlet orifice of the second spray nozzle being adjusted. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising adjusting the position of the first spray nozzle relative to the nozzle body to adapt the spacing between the first outlet orifice and the second outlet orifice as a function of a distance apart between zones to be lubricated. 14. The method of claim 13, securing the position of the first spray nozzle relative to the second spray nozzle after adjustment of the distance therebetween.
