The invention relates to a lubricant dispenser comprising a storage container (1) filled with lubricant and a pump unit (2) which can be connected to or is releasably connected to the storage container and by means of which the lubricant can be pumped from the storage container (1) to an outlet (5) of the pump unit (2) and is equipped with an electronic controller (35). The lubricant dispenser is characterized in that the storage container (1) is equipped with an electronic coding means (36) which can be connected to the electronic controller (35) of the pump unit (2) and can be read by same so as to transmit information in the assembled state in order to identify the storage container (1).

Apparatus for collecting and measuring oil drained from a vehicle includes a receptacle and a valve. The receptacle includes a wide upper oil collection portion with an upper receptacle wall configured to collect and contain oil drained from a vehicle, and includes a narrower lower outlet portion having a lower receptacle wall configured to allow the oil to drain from the receptacle via a gravity feed. The receptacle has markings arranged on at least one of the upper receptacle wall or the lower receptacle wall and configured to measure the oil drained and collected from the vehicle. The valve includes an upper valve inlet and coupling portion configured to connect to the narrower lower outlet portion of the receptacle and allow the oil to drain into the valve, includes a valve opening/closing portion configured either to open and allow the oil to drain through the valve or to close and allow oil to collect in the receptacle, and includes a lower valve outlet and coupling portion configured to connect to a tube or oil basin/reservoir to allow the oil to drain from the valve into the tube or oil basin/reservoir.

One aspect of the present disclosure provides an electric-powered lubricator including a first manual switch, an electric motor, a drive circuit, a pump, and a control circuit. The control circuit controls, while the electric motor is being driven, the drive circuit such that the electric motor decelerates from a preset rotational speed in accordance with a difference between (i) a setting value and (ii) a calculated value. The setting value corresponds to a desired count of reciprocation of a plunger in the pump. The calculated value corresponds to a calculated count of reciprocation of the plunger.
