20060108180 - Grease gun: A device for dispensing a viscous fluid, such as grease gun for dispensing lubricant. The grease gun delivers lubricant with a selectable variation in pressure and/or output. It includes a reservoir, a pump having a reciprocating plunger, an electric motor driving the pump, and a variable speed transmission for transmitting...

20060102427 - Lubricant supply unit: A lubricant supply unit has a casing and a rear seal. The rear seal is mounted on the casing in fluid-tight matter. The casing has four tapered paths defined through the casing. Multiple porous fillings are fitted into the casing. The porous filling near the rear seal has spike protrusions...

20060102428 - Lubrication apparatus: A lubrication apparatus includes a first pump of roots type for feeding oil into an oil tank and a second pump of external gear type for feeding the oil stored in the oil tank to a position where the oil is supplied. The first pump and the second pump are...

20060102429 - Control apparatus for dry sump type internal combustion engine: A feed pump 28 that is driven by the axial torque of an internal combustion engine 10 is installed. An electric scavenge pump 36 is installed. A base value for the ratio (S/F ratio) between the discharge volume of the scavenge pump 36 and feed pump 28 is calculated. The...

20060102430 - Optical cable lubricator with reservoir: A cable is installed in a duct by means of blowing (and, optionally, synergetic pushing) and lubricating the cable during field installation. Lubricating the cable is done after the cable exits from the cable blowing equipment and hence takes place in a pressurized airflow passage. Lubricant supplied from an external...

20060096808 - Universal oil change and filter relocation systems: Aspects of the invention include a universal oil change system and an oil filter relocation system. The oil change system changes the location at which oil is drained from a vehicle engine, such as from the bottom of the engine block to a more convenient and accessible location on the...

20060096809 - Automated oil-change system and method: The present invention may provide an automatic oil-change system for an engine comprising: a first oil container, a second oil container and means for switching between the first oil container and the second oil container. The switching means may provide the engine with oil from the first oil container until...

20060096810 - Lubrication oil supply structure: A main journal 25a of a crank-shaped swinging shaft 25 which swings in a range of a predetermined angle is supported by bearing metals 51 and 52 each divided into two pieces. In supplying a lubrication oil through an oil bore 51b in the bearing metal 51 to a sliding...

20060090964 - Pressure lubrication for inverted flight: A gravity controlled lubrication system for aircraft engines to supply a lubricant from a tank to a circulating system permitting lubricant to flow when the aircraft changes to an inverted flight condition....

20060090965 - Grease pressure release gun: A tool for visually detecting and releasing grease overpressure from a grease nipple comprises a grease coupling in which is formed a vent opening. The grease coupling is carried by an extension tube that extends rearward towards an insert to which it is connected. The insert has a bore in...
