Grease Distribution Systems
Grease distribution systems for lubricating a plurality of fracking valves on a wellhead may include a distribution manifold configured for mounting on or adjacent to the wellhead. The grease distribution manifold may include a plurality of manifold valves. A grease pump may be disposed in fluid communication with the grease distribution manifold. A plurality of safety valves may be disposed in fluid communication with the respective manifold valves. Each of the safety valves is configured to be disposed in fluid communication with one of a plurality of fracking valves. The grease pump is configured to distribute grease through at least one of the manifold valves and its respective one of the safety valves, to the respective one of the fracking valves.

FRACK VALVE GREASING SYSTEM
A greasing system may be placed partially within the red zone and partially outside of the red zone. Grease and pneumatic power is supplied from outside of the red zone to a pod, inside of the red zone, having local storage, high-pressure pumping capacity, and a distribution mechanism. The grease is supplied from outside of the red zone to the pod at low-pressure through a hose having at least a 1 inch inside diameter and is usually at least 100 feet long. The pod pressurizes the grease to a high-pressure and distributes the grease via a distribution mechanism to a relatively short hose, generally less than 8 feet between the distribution mechanism and the greasing point on the wellhead, in order to minimize pressure losses.

Lubrication systems for transmissions
A lubrication system for a transmission includes a flow-metering device and a controller. The controller is operatively associated with the flow-metering device to cause the flow-metering device to intermittently issue lubricant from the flow-metering device into a transmission based on an operating parameter of the transmission.

LUBRICATING SYSTEM
A lubricating system that includes a manifold with one or more manifold ports that permit a flow of lubricant through the manifold. The manifold is configured for removable attachment to another manifold such that any number of manifold can be joined together. An ejector is removably attached to the manifold. The ejector has one or more projections configured for insertion into each of the one or more manifold ports in the manifold, such that the ejector is configured to receive the flow of lubricant from the manifold, via the one or more projections, and to discharge lubricant periodically, or at preset intervals, from one or more outlet ports of the ejector. A locking key is disposed between the manifold and ejector. The locking key is configured such that movement of the locking key attaches or detaches the ejector from the manifold.
