A grease gun coupler with integrated pressure relief valve configured to attach a grease gun to a grease fitting includes a main body with a fluid conduit defined therethrough, and a pressure relief valve integrally formed with the main body extending generally perpendicularly therefrom.

A grease gun coupler with integrated pressure relief valve configured to attach a grease gun to a grease fitting includes a main body with a fluid conduit defined therethrough, and a pressure relief valve integrally formed with the main body extending generally perpendicularly therefrom.

A coupler connected a hose of a grease gun includes a body having a path defined therethrough. A check valve unit and a sealing unit are located in the body. The check valve includes a spring which biases the sealing unit. A groove is defined in an outer surface of the body. A socket is mounted to the body and multiple pawls are received in the socket. The pawls each have a first end engaged with the groove, and a second end of each pawl is controlled to be connected to a fitting member. The socket has a flange extending from the inner periphery. The second ends of the pawls removably contact the flange. A trigger is pivotably connected to the body and drives the socket which is moved by pivoting the trigger so as to control the pawls to engaged with or release the fitting member.

An oil nozzle assembly includes a nozzle body and a nozzle insert. The nozzle body includes a main portion, a tip portion, and a lip. The tip portion is connected to the main portion. The lip extends outwards from the tip portion and has an outer width. The nozzle insert includes a sleeve, an endwall connected to the sleeve, an orifice, and a retention element. The orifice is disposed in the endwall and is fluidly connected to the tip portion of the nozzle body. The retention element extends inward from the sleeve. A portion of the retention element has an inner width that is less than the outer width of the lip. The nozzle insert is disposed onto the tip portion of the nozzle body.

A system for harvesting energy from a lubrication event includes a fluid pump, a fluid injector, an energy harvesting device, a wireless transmitter, and a controller unit. The fluid injector receives fluid from the fluid pump. The fluid injector is connected to the energy harvesting device, which is configured to produce electrical energy in response to a firing of the fluid injector. Electrical energy produced by the energy harvesting device powers the wireless transmitter, which is configured to transmit a wireless signal. The wireless signal indicates that the fluid injector fired. The wireless signal is received by the controller unit, which controls the fluid pump.

The following disclosure relates to a conduit lubricating device. The conduit lubricating device includes a lubricant reservoir, a hose with a stiffness great enough to enable manual insertion into a populated conduit, yet not so great as to prohibit traversal of the conduit's contours, and a pump fluidly coupled to the lubricant reservoir and the hose.
