This application relates to a battery operated grease gun comprising a body able to be connected to a container configured to store grease, the body defining first and second elongate chambers therein, the first chamber extending along a first axis and the second chamber extending along a second axis, the first axis being spaced from the second axis, and the second chamber having a smaller cross-sectional area than the first chamber; first and second pistons, the first piston configured to reciprocate within the first chamber along the first axis and the second piston configured to reciprocate within the second chamber along the second axis, the second piston having a smaller cross-sectional area than the first piston; a common grease channel, the common grease channel being disposed between the container and the first and second chambers such that the grease is able to flow from the container into the first and second chambers; an actuator connected to the body and moveable between a retracted position, whereby grease is able to flow through the common grease channel, and an engaged position, whereby grease is restricted from flowing through the common grease channel, the actuator being configured to cause reciprocation of the first piston and the second piston when moved between the engaged and retracted positions; and a grease outlet fluidically connected to the first and second chambers that allows for grease to be discharged from the grease gun. The battery operated grease gun may further comprise a high pressure/high flow switch in the form of a pressure-sensitive spool, bypass valve or gap-based bypass.

A box lubricator that includes a pump with a piston housing and piston. The piston housing extends from a first end to a second end, and includes a bore extending through the piston housing from the first end of the piston housing to the second end of the piston housing. The piston housing also includes a recess disposed at the second end of the piston housing, the recess being concentric with the bore and comprising a diameter larger than a diameter of the bore. The piston is disposed inside the bore of the piston housing. At least one elastomeric seal is disposed inside the recess of the piston housing and around the piston. In some embodiments, a ball and socket joint connects the piston to the rocker arm assembly. In some embodiments, a fluid passage and a check valve are disposed inside the piston.

A lubricator pump adjuster for use with a lubricator pump having a piston housed in a pump body and a rocker connected to the piston. The lubricator pump adjuster comprises a mounting fitting attachable to the pump body and a housing disposed on the mounting fitting. An actuator is disposed in the housing and connectable to the rocker, whereby activation of the actuator causes the rocker to move, thereby adjusting the stroke of the piston. The actuator is a rotary actuator with an output shaft. The lubricator pump adjuster includes a cam faced member attached to the output shaft, and a plunger in contact with the cam faced member that is connectable to the rocker. The cam faced member may include a spiral-ramped surface.
