Filed April- 4, 1927 Patented May 20, 1930 PATENT OFFICE 1mm :r. airs, or CHICAGO, rumors MULTIPLE OILER Application filed April 4,
f The main objects of this invention are to provide an improved type'of multiple oiler, which is simple in" construction and eflicient in operation; to'provide-a multiple oiler in [5, which all the oil discharge nozzles are opened in unison by a unitary member; and to pro- .Vide an oiler in whichthelflow of oil can be regulate'd'by adjustment, of a wick which is located in'each of the oil discharge nozzles.
An illustrative embodiment of this invention is shown in the Yaccompanying'drawings,
in which V Fig. 1is a top plan view of the oiler, with a portion of the cover. plate broken away to show the interior construction.
Fig. 2 is'a side-elevation of the same, with a part thereofshown in vertical section.
In the construction shown in the drawings, a reservoir 1 is provided for containing a supply of lubricating oil. Said reservoir is constructed so as to have integral side and end walls 2 and 3 respectively, and a floor 4;
The floor of the reservoiris provided with a plurality: of threaded openings, in which are screwed a plurality of tubes 5 whichextend upwardly from the floor of the reservoir to a point closely adjacent the top of the reservoir and above the normal level of the lubricating oil therein.
The top edges of the upstanding tubes 5 are each provided with notches 6rfor receiving a wick 7 one end of which is helically wound around the tube 5, and extends down into the oilzof the reservoir andthe other end of which passes through the notch 6 and'extends down intofthe'interior of the tube 5.
The wick 7 has a metallic core 8, and regulation of the flow of oil from the reservoir "is secured by burning or otherwise removing the wicking from themetallic core for a .certain distance at theend of the wick which extends down within the tube 5'. The further up-thecore this wicking is removed the'slower will be theflow of oil, and the further the flow of oil. I
The lower endof each of thetubes 5 isprovided withanoil discharge opening, and has a downwardly taeing, valve SBEtwhich coasts down the wicking extends the faster will be 1927. Serial No. 180,871.
with a valve 10 carried on the lower end of a valve stem 11. The valve stem 11 is housed concentrically within the tube 5, and the upper end extends above the top end of the tube 5. A cap 12 is securedto the top end of each of the valve stems 11 and providesa bearing seat for a coiled compression spring 13, which'bears between the under side ofthe cap and the top side of .an upwardly facin cup 1 1, which is concentrically disposedan carried upon the top end of the tube :5.
Means are provided for bearing down on all of the caps 12 in unison, thereby forcing the valves 10 downwardly from their respective valve seats so as to permit the How of 1,
oil, and comprises a plate 15 carried on the under side of the detachable reservoir cover 16, which issecured to the reservoir by suitable means, such as screws 17. The plate 15 is'provided witha pair of upstanding. studs 18, which extend upwardly through-apertures formed in the cover plate 16'. Meansare provided for engaging the studs 18 and forcing them downwardly so as to cause the plate 15 to engage and force down the caps 12 to open the valves 10, and comprise a pair of cam levers '20, pivotally mounted on upstanding lugs 21, formed on the top surface of the reservoir cover plate 16. 1 1
Means are provided for filling thee-reservoir with lubricating oil, and comprise an oil filler cup having a body part 25, mounted on one end of the reservoir and communicating therewith. The cup 25 carries a longitudinally disposed'pivot pin 26, upon which is hingedly mounted a cover 27 A coil torsion spring 28 is wound about the pin 26.. One end of the spring bears against the body part 25, and the other end of the spring is disposed in a notch 29 formed in the cover 27 adjacent the point of hinged connection, and bears against the cover so as to normally hold it in closedposition on the cup 25. The notch '29 forreceivingone end of the torsion spring 28 retains the end of the spring in position at all times, and permits the upper end thereof to be filed or ground off flush with the top surface of the covers'o that it will not catch on waste or wiping rags used 60 and a manually operable unitary member con- The opposite end of the oiler carries the usual sight ga-geglas's 35', for-visually show-' way 38. This, passageway communicates with the interior of the glass35 and the atmosphere for venting the air in the gage so that the oil can flowinto the glass 35.
In the operation of the device, the reservoir is filled by raising the cover 27 and pouring oil into the cup 25,- which communicates with the interior of thereservoir. The wicks 7. conduct the oil from the reservoir upwardly I and then downwardly into "the interior'of the tubes 5 by capillary attraction aided by a siphoning action after the flow has once been 7 established; When it is desired to have the oil flowthrough the various discharge nozzles or openings, the cam levers 20 are turned to an uprightposition', thus forcing dow'n the studs 18 carried on plate 15, thus causing the plate I5'to'contact'in unison with all of the caps 12 which are mounted on the top endsof the valve stems Downward movedischarge nozzles:
following 7 claims. "I claim:
ment of the caps and valve stems'moves all of the valves lO'downwardly from their seats and thus permits the oil to flow through the 1 When it is desired to shut off the flow of oil, the manually operable leversQO are returned to their horizontal" position, and the springs 13 ofthe'respective oiler units carry the plate 1 5 upwardly'and thus close each-of the valves 10 individually'on their respec tive valve seats.
