A method for lubricating a sealed bearing providing a first ring and a second ring capable of rotating concentrically relative to one another, and seals delimiting together with the first and second rings a sealed chamber. The method includes a removing a first predetermined quantity of lubricant from the sealed chamber until the pressure in the sealed chamber reaches a first pressure value, and then injecting a second predetermined quantity of lubricant in the sealed chamber until the pressure in the sealed chamber reaches a second pressure value, the first pressure value and the second pressure value being determined so that the pressure inside the sealed chamber remains within a predetermined interval, the boundaries of the interval being determined according to characteristics of the seals so that the sealed chamber remains waterproof to the lubricant when lubricant is removed from or injected in the sealed chamber.

Provided is a flood barrier for use with HAZMAT materials. The barrier includes a first wall and a second wall joined together at a first end, tape for securing the barrier to a surface to prevent leaks, multiple flexible ribs attached between the first wall and second walls, one or more holes for filling, and a rod that separates an open end of the first and second wall to form a chamber with an open end. Several insulating floats are evenly spaced between the ribs on a bottom surface of the first wall to prevent overflow. A gap filler, such as uncured silicone and tape is used in the transition from a terminal rib to an exposed corner of the barrier. The barrier can withstand high heat for a sustained period of time, is leak-proof, and includes an improved method of sealing corners.

A rotary machine includes a fixed internal body, a rotating external body and a lubrication system to lubricate one or more components of the internal body or external body during rotation. The lubrication system includes: an inlet conduit for a lubricant, formed in the internal body; one or more distribution conduits for the lubricant; a lubricant collection chamber between the external body and the internal body; and an outlet conduit communicating with the collection chamber.

A system is provided for removing oil from an oil filter of a motor vehicle. The system includes a housing with a top rim, an upper portion, a lower portion, and a bottom rim. The top rim of the housing includes a first diameter. The housing includes the bottom rim with a second diameter that is less than the first diameter. The system also includes an upper cap with a flange including a first side and an opposing second side. The flange is disposed at a top portion of the upper cap. The first side of the flange is coupled to the top rim of the housing. A bottom portion of the upper cap extends into the housing. The upper cap includes a central aperture for draining the oil from the oil filter into the housing.

A lubrication system for a wind turbine is provided, the lubrication system including a lubricant consumer to which fresh lubricant is supplied and out of which used lubricant is extracted, a pump for pumping fresh lubricant to the lubricant consumer, a waste lubricant collector where used lubricant can flow after being extracted from the lubricant consumer, and a plurality of containers delivering fresh lubricant to the lubrication system.

A container assembly for receiving and storing a fluid includes a hollow container body and a hollow support trunk. The container body has an internal chamber for receiving and storing a fluid. The container body includes a front wall and an opposing back wall at least partially defining the internal chamber. The front wall includes an opening therethrough to allow the fluid to be received in the internal chamber. The support trunk is coupled to the opening in the front wall. The support trunk extends through the internal chamber and includes a distal end engaging the back wall. The support trunk provides support to the front wall and channels the fluid from the opening to the internal chamber.

A diffuser for an oil drainback system drain tube includes a flow chamber configured for attachment to an open end of a drain tube, wherein the flow chamber has a side wall and an end wall, and openings in at least the side wall.

A fluid exchange service cart for performing fluid exchange service operations on a vehicle. The fluid exchange service cart additionally comprises an instrument panel and a number of panel loci to which the instrument panel may be detachably appended in different operating configurations.
