Description: |
| Abstract:
The present invention consists in a new mode of lubricating the various portions of locomotive and other engines and machines worked by air, steam, gas or vapor by impregnating or saturating air, steam, gas or vapor, used as a motive power with lubricating material and then forcing it under pressure into the cylinder, steam-chest or other portions of an engine or machine. By this means, air, steam, gas or vapor being thus impregnated can be forced into and diffused about all the wearing parts of machinery, such as valves, pistons, cylinders, piston rods, valve spindles, & c., and penetrate to these parts more readily than any other method previously known, thereby effecting a more uniform, certain and economical means of lubrication than has heretofore been possible.
Claim:
The mode or process herein described of saturating, mixing or impregnating steam, air, gas, vapor, &c., with lubricating material for the lubrication of the various working parts of engines, and machines operated by steam, air, gas or vapor by means of any impregnating, mixing or saturating apparatus containing any proper lubricating material, through which the steam &c is made to pass. |
