Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented D... 31,1912.
Application filed December 27, 1910. Serial No. 599,358.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY P. THOMAS, a I
normally closed outlet opening, the said pipe or receptacle being arranged below, and of course communicating with the passage of the lubricator.
\Vith the above and other objects in view which will appear as the description progresses, the invention resides in the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings accompanying this specification, there has been illustrated a simple and approved lubricator constructed in accordance'withthe present invention, the showing therein, however, is to be taken as merely illustrative, as minor details of construction within the scope of the appended claims may be resortedto if desired.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a lubricator constructed in accordance with the present invention, the sections comprising the same being illustrated in their open position. ;Fig. 2 is a central vertical longitudinal sectional view, the secgether as indicated by the numerals 4. Each of the sections 2 and 3 have their meeting faces provided with centrally .arran ed longitudmally extending semi cylindrlcal depressions 5 and 6, so that when the sections 2 and 3 are swung one upon the other, the
semi cylindrical depressions form a cross sectional circular channel, as illustrated in Figs. 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the drawings. The upper section 2 is provided with suitable handles 7, whereby the lubricating device may be readily removed from place to place whendesired. The members 2 and 3 are each formed with suitable securing elements designated by the numerals 8 and 9 whereby the said members 2 and 3 may be securely locked when in their closed position. The securing elements 8 and 9 may be of any desired or preferred structure, but the said elements preferably comprise winged bolts, each of the same. being adapted to enter threaded orifices in the opposite section. By
this arrangement it will be noted that when the members 2 and 3 are closed-the winged bolts 8 and 9 efi'ectively and securely retain the sections one upon the other. It will be further noted that, should the occasion demand, the said sections may be sustained in an adjusted position one in relation to the other.
The upper section 2 is formed, adjacent one of its ends with an opening 10 which communicates with the channel formed by the members 2 and 3. This opening is adapted for the reception of the spout of a suitable hopper 12, the said hopper being adapted .to receive the lubricant or filler which is delivered to the central channel of the lubricator. The opening 10 has its walls preferably inclined and toward the outer face of the ends of the sections 2 and 3, so that the lubricant will be guided toward the end of the cable 13 which first entersthe channel.
The numeral 14 designates a wiper which is arranged adjacent the opening 8 and f which extends within the channel of the device. 7
The forward or' opposite end of the member 2, to that occupied by the hopper 12 is formed with a air of spaced depressions 15, the latter being adapted for the reception of wiping members 16. Communicating with the depressions 15 are threaded W1 1i t eatre provided within the offsets formed upon the wiper holding members 21. Each of the said members 21 is substantially U-shaped in cross section, and the side arms of the said members have their upper extremities bent inwardly to form the substantially continuous teeth 22. These teeth 22 are adapted to engage the opposite sides of the wipers 16 adjacent the lower ends thereof.
The lower section 3 is formed with coinciding depressions arranged adjacent the depressions 15. These depressions, designated by the numeral 23, are also adapted for the reception of Wiper members 24. The member or section 3 is formedwith threaded openings communicating with the depres-.
sions, and the said openings are adapted for the reception of threaded headed elements 25. These elements are similar to the elements 18 and the wiper holding elements 26 are also similar to the-wiper holding elements 21. The section 3 directly opposite the wiper 14 is also provided with a depression adapted for the reception of a suitable wiper, and this wiper is vertically adjustable through the medium of the element 27. The method of sustaining and retaining the wiper 28 is similar to that of the wlpers hereinbefore described.
The numeral 29 designates, what I term, the storage tube or pipe of the lubricator. This pipe 29 extends longitudinally below the lower section 3 and communicates therewith and with the central chamber directly opposite the threaded element 27, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawings, while the opposite end of the said member has its outer wall connected between the wiper members 24:. The space between the wipers and the longitudinal channel is provided with an opening 30 so that the lubricant within the channel and between-the wipers will receive free access to the pipe 29.
The numeral 31 designates an auxiliary pipe. This pipe communicates with the longitu- 4 dinal channel directly below the inner wiper member 2 1 which is arranged farthest within the channel so that thelubricant scraped from the said cable by the wipers 16 and 24: may be free to pass to the pipe 29.
Connected with the pipe 29 adjacent the point of communication of the said pipe with the rope entrance end of the lubricator is a drain'cock 32. This cock is for use in draining ofi the lubricant after all of the cable has passed through the lubricator.
Havin thus fully described the invention, what l c aim as new, is:
1. In a lubricator of the class set forth, a
pair of rectangular members hingedly securedto'gether, each of said members having their opposite faces provided with threaded depressions, the opposite faces of each of.
bers engaging the wipers, the lower section being provided with depressions coinciding with the depressions of the first named section, wiper members in each of said depressions, threaded adjusting members for each of the wipers, a pipe for the second section, said pipe having its opposite ends secured to the-said second section between the spaced wiper members adjacent one of the endsof the lubricator and adjacent the wiper member arranged at the opposite end of the lubricator, and an auxiliary pipe member communicating with the channel formed by the semicylindrical depressions and the pipe member, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A lubricating device, for the purpose set forth comprising a pair of hinged members each formed with a centrally arranged longitudinally extending semi-cylindrical channel, means provided upon both of the members for locking the members together, one of the said members being provided with a lubricant entrance opening which is arranged adjacent one of its ends, both of the members being provided with a plurality of oppositely arranged adjustable wipers which-project with the channel, one of the members being provided with a plurality of openings which are arranged adjacent its wipers, a pipe provided with an outlet cock disposed below this member and the said pipe communicating with all of the openings of the last named member.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
