A machine lubrication system includes a bellows-type container filled with lubricant that connects to a support base of a pump of the lubrication system. The container includes a neck extending from a convex bottom surface of the container. The support base includes a concave mounting surface and a passageway in communication with an inlet of the pump. The neck sealingly attaches the container to the passageway with the bottom surface of the container on the mounting surface the support base.

A lubrication system for supplying a lubricant to at least one lubrication point includes at least one lubricant line and at least one lubricant system component that is connected to the lubricant line. The lubrication system component includes at least one movable element and/or the lubricant line includes at least one movable portion. The system also includes at least one energy-generating element, such as a piezo element or a magnet and coil, configured to interact with the at least one movable element and generate energy from a movement of the at least one moveable element.

In a method for reconditioning an industrial oil and in an oil recovery system therefor, a used industrial oil is reconditioned by adding a liquid separation booster to the used industrial oil, and then the separation booster with attracted impurities is separated from the used industrial oil while leaving at least one specific additive in the oil. The separation booster is designed to attract impurities in the used oil while not attracting at least one specific additive in the oil.

Proposed are triboelectric generator using a lubricant-infused surface controlled by a magnetic field and a manufacturing method thereof. The triboelectric generator 10 includes a substrate 100, an electrode unit 200 positioned on the substrate 100 and including a first electrode 210 and a second electrode 220, a stabilization layer 300 positioned on the substrate 100 and the electrode unit 200 and including a first elastic polymer 310, and a magneto-controllable unit 400 positioned on the stabilization layer 300 and including a lubricant 420 and a plurality of protrusion-shaped microcomposites 410, in which the microcomposite includes a magnetic material 411 and a second elastic polymer 412. The protrusion-shaped microcomposite is partially immersed in the lubricant, improves power generation efficiency, and can perform reversible switching according to the direction of the magnetic field.

These objects are attained in a mount for a lubricant dispenser and that has a protective casing forming a cavity adapted to hold the dispenser and having a lower edge and a bracket having a lower generally horizontal leg on which the lower edge of the casing sits. An outlet fitting is provided on the lower leg positioned to received lubricant from the dispenser in the cavity of the casing sitting on the lower leg.
