Description: |
| This patent was improved by patent #121,779.
Abstract:
his invention relates to improvements in that class of steam-lubricators in which the lubricating material is transferred from the lubricator, by the action of the steam, to the points where lubrication is desired; and my invention consists in the arrangement of a chamber for the lubricating material having an outside passage communicating with said chamber at top and 'bottom, and a valve connected with said chamber, through which the steam passes, so that the condensation of the steam occurring at or near the valve passes freely into the said chamber, causing the lubricating material to rise proportionately into said valve, or where it may communicate directly with the steam, and there mingling with the steam be carried by the flowing steam to the valves or whatever it may come in contact with.
Claim:
The chamber A, provided with a means for filling, combined with the steam-passage La and passage T, the said passage T provided with a valve to open or close said passage. |
