A bending system includes a greasing unit configured to move in a right-left direction by way of a moving operation of an external operation member and to supply grease to a sliding contact part of a tool holder, and a greasing unit holder provided on one side in a right-left direction of a table and configured to support the greasing unit. The greasing unit includes a greasing unit main body, and an application member provided on the greasing unit main body and formed in a shape corresponding to the sliding part of the tool holder, the application member being configured to be able to be impregnated with the grease.

DISTRIBUTOR FOR A LUBRICANT OR FLUID AND A SYSTEM WITH A DISTRIBUTOR

A lubricant or fluid distributor may have a housing made in one piece and comprising an inner wall and an outer wall. The inner wall encloses an inlet chamber fluidly connected with an outside of the housing through a fluid inlet. A main chamber may be formed in between the outer wall and the inner wall, the main chamber fluidly connected with the inlet chamber and fluidly connected with the outside of the housing through one or more fluid outlets. A lubricant fitting member may be encapsulated within the inlet chamber. A system with the lubricant or fluid distributor may have a part to be lubricated.

MOTION GUIDANCE DEVICE

A guide device includes a track member and a moving member engaged with the track member with a plurality of rolling elements interposed therebetween. A lubricating path is formed in the moving member for supplying lubricant to a circulation path for the rolling elements. The lubricating path has a common path including an inlet portion that serves as a supply port for the lubricant, a first path through which grease flows, and a second path through which lubricating oil flows. A cross-sectional area of the second path is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the first path, and in the common path, a second communication portion of the second path is located closer to the inlet portion than a first communication portion of the first path. Further, the guide device includes a plug member for blocking the inlet portion of the common path, the plug member being removable and able to be moved within the common path.

BARGE SPUD GREASING SYSTEM
20220136649 · 2022-05-05 ·

A spud greasing system includes a spudwell and a spud configured to slidingly engage with the spudwell between a deployed position and an undeployed position. The spud includes an access window configured to align and correspond with a window of the spudwell when the spud is in the undeployed position. A sheave assembly is mounted in the spud and includes a first sheave and a second sheave rotationally mounted proximate a front end and a back end of the housing, respectively. When the spud is in the undeployed position, a grease supply is configured to be selectively connected to a supply pipe through the window and access window of the spudwell and spud thereby supplying grease to the first sheave of the sheave assembly without removing the spud from the spudwell.

A DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPENSING LUBRICANT
20230243468 · 2023-08-03 ·

Described herein is a modular device for dispensing a lubricant. A first coupling end is attachable to a source of lubrication. A second coupling end is attachable to a lubrication receiver. A control module is arranged between the first coupling end and the second coupling end. The control module includes a flow measuring device in fluid communication between the first end coupling and the second end coupling. The control module is configured to enable dispensing of the lubricant.

System and method for executing a lubrication plan
11306870 · 2022-04-19 · ·

A system for executing a lubrication plan including a grease meter for measuring a volumetric flow of grease through the meter. The grease meter having a memory for storing a set of instructions that includes a series of prescribed grease volumes be delivered at a corresponding series of lubrication points, a memory for storing a volume of grease delivered at a particular lubrication point and is configured to communicate with the display device. A display device includes a memory for storing an image of each lubrication point in the series, each image being a photograph of the machine that has the lubrication point. The machine is configured to display each image along with the prescribed grease volume to be delivered at the corresponding lubrication point. The displayed image of a further lubrication point in the series image is triggered by the grease meter when a delivered volume is stored.

Fifth wheel turntable lubrication device
11186328 · 2021-11-30 · ·

A turntable lubrication device for lubricating sliding mating surfaces of a base plate and an upper plate, the device comprising; —a casing, and—a lubricating grease contained and sealed within the casing, which lubrication device is intended to be manually positioned on the mating surface of the base plate and ruptured under pressure of the upper plate when the upper plate is positioned on top of the base plate, thereby allowing the grease to be distributed between the mating surfaces. The lubrication device is elongated and plastically formable, thus allowing the device to be shaped and curved so that it substantially follows a circumferential shape of the base plate such that the grease is evenly distributed over the sliding mating surfaces.
