A lubrication system includes a progressive distributor that is configured to dispense lubricant to a consumer. The lubrication system also includes a control device and at least one sensor that is configured to determine at least one lubricant pressure inside the lubrication system. The control device is configured to receive measured values from the at least one sensor and to recognize a lubrication cycle based on the measured values and also to determine an average pressure of the lubrication cycle, to perform a comparison of the average pressure and at least one normal pressure of the lubrication system, and to determine a state of the lubrication system based on a result of the comparison.

Lubricating system

A lubrication system includes a progressive distributor and at least one pressure sensor. The progressive distributor includes a housing block having a lubricant inlet, a plurality of lubricant outlets, a plurality of piston bores fluidically connected to the lubricant inlet, each of the plurality of piston bores having a first outlet bore and a second outlet bore, and a metering piston in each of the plurality of piston bores. Each of the metering pistons is displaceable in a respective one of the plurality of outlet bores to uncover either the first outlet bore or the second outlet bore. The pressure sensor is disposed at an inlet of the progressive distributor upstream of the metering pistons with respect to a lubricant flow direction and configured to determine a lubricant pressure.

Lubrication system

A progressive distributor for lubricant includes a housing block having an inlet and a plurality of outlets and a plurality of metering pistons received in associated piston bores in the housing block. Each piston bore is associated with two lubricant outlet bores, and each metering piston is displaceable and configured to alternatingly release the one or the other lubricant outlet bore in order to dispense the metered lubricant amount to the lubricant outlet bore. The piston bores are fluidically connected to the lubricant inlet bore and to each other via connecting bores in order to transfer lubricant to the other piston bores. A dummy piston is disposed in one of the piston bores that permanently closes both the lubricant inlet bore and both lubricant outlet bores, and includes at least one bypass passageway that fluidically connects two of the connecting bores to each other.

Progressive distributor for lubricant

A progressive distributor includes a housing block with an inlet bore and outlet bores and first and second metering pistons in first and second piston bores. Each piston defines first and second annular workspaces and delimits first and second metering spaces at the ends of each piston, the first and second piston bores each having a central axis and being disposed one atop the other so that their central axes are parallel to each other and located in a central plane. Switching bores connect the metering spaces of the first metering piston to the workspaces of the second metering piston, and the switching bores are located on opposite sides of the central plane.

Progressive distributor

A lubricant reservoir system includes a lubricant reservoir having an interior wall and an inlet for receiving lubricant from a supply. A follower device in the reservoir contacts the interior wall of the reservoir in a sliding and sealing manner, and the follower device is movable up and down in the reservoir from a first position to a second position in response to a changing lubricant level. A valve is in fluid communication with the inlet and is configured to selectively prevent a flow of the lubricant through the inlet. A connector operatively connects the follower device to the valve unit such that the flow of the lubricant through the inlet is prevented when the follower device is in the second position. The connector is configured such that the valve is positionable independently of the reservoir.

The present invention relates to a device for wetting or lubricating a rail head (). The device has at least one outlet () for a wetting agent and/or lubricant. To ensure that the noise generated by a track-bound vehicle is reduced safely and regardless of the weather, a rail head-side end portion () of the at least one outlet () is movably mounted between a position at a remote distance from the rail head () and a position in closer proximity to the rail head.

The invention relates to a lubricant distributor with a distributor plate () and one or more injectors () that can be connected to this plate and that are each formed from a housing () defining a longitudinal axis with an inlet () and an outlet () that connect to corresponding connections in the distributor plate, and also from a dosing and reversing unit that is formed in the housing, wherein the inlets and outlets are arranged on the side of the housing facing the distributor plate (FIG.).

Lubricant distributor

The invention relates to a hydraulic device with a supply line for pressurized hydraulic fluid and with a lubricating pump that is connected to the supply line in a fluidic fashion. The lubricating pump comprises a hydraulic inlet, a pump element for conveying a lubricant from a reservoir to at least one lubricating point of the hydraulic device, and mechanism for producing a pump stroke of the pump element. The mechanism for producing a pump stroke comprises a base body, a piston unit movable in the base body, and a reversing mechanism for reversing the direction of movement of at least one element of the piston unit. The reversing mechanism comprises at least one bypass formed by at least one recess, and at least one elastic element acting upon the piston unit in a first direction oriented toward the hydraulic inlet whereby the piston unit can be displaced in the base body in an oscillating fashion between a closed position in which a fluid connection between the hydraulic inlet and the hydraulic outlet is blocked, and an open position in which said fluid connection is unblocked in order to produce a pump stroke of the pump element.
