Definitions

  • an oil circulation indicating instruments which comprise a housing, a plurality of boreholes angularly disposed within said housing in an upwardlydownwardly direction, said boreholes communicating at their lower end with a common channel disposed in said housing, additional boreholes communicating with each of said angularly disposed boreholes and with the elements to be lubricated, a movable float means disposed in each of said angularly disposed boreholes and adapted to be raised to a point above said additional boreholes or lowered to a point below said additional boreholes, and a central lubricant supply pipe communicating with said common channel for the introduction of the lubricant thereto.
  • the present invention relates to an apparatus, such as a drawing unit, a calender dryer or the like, which is part of a continuously operating processing line, for example, a synthetic fiber production line.
  • the individual bearings of the line are connected with each other by lubricating boreholes and are constantly oiled by means of a circulating forced lubrication.
  • An object of the present invention is to avoid the prior art disadvantages in providing a reliable lubricating assembly.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a means for closely watching each individual point of lubrication of, for example, a drawing unit, a calender dryer or any type of apparatus which relies upon lubrication for its operation.
  • each individual point of lubrication is equip with an indicating instrument. This approach is taken to ensure that not only all points of lubrication together, but each individual bearing, can be provided with a sufficient supply of oil.
  • the indicating instrument can be, for example, an upwardly inclined tube through which the lubricant is conveyed in an upward direction and which contains a float body which is visible from the outside of the apparatus and which moves in dependence upon the circulating lubricant.
  • this device is simplified in such a way that the tube is a borehole in a solid box, the bottom section of said borehole being provided with an inspection window.
  • the borehole in the solid box is inclined in the upward direction with its lower part penetrating the front side of the box.
  • the present invention also contemplates providing each individual point of lubrication of the machine with a borehole.
  • the boreholes are connected with each other by a channel.
  • the main lubricant supply pipe terminates in said channel.
  • the indicating instrument according to the present invention is extremely advantageous because it is simple and reliable and pennits the close supervision of each individual bearing of the machine.
  • FIG. 1 shows the indicating instrument with the lubricant being stangnant
  • FIG. 2 is a section along the line II-Il, through the instrument according to FIG. 1, with the lubricant flowing.
  • the cipher 1 marks a solid box in which upwards and downwards movable balls 2 are at rest in the lower sections of boreholes 3.
  • the boreholes are adjoined to the individual points of lubrication of the machine.
  • the boreholes 3 penetrate the front wall of the box 1-.
  • the openings, which are provided in the front wall, are covered by a transparent plate 4 which is fastened to the front wall of the box, absolutely oil-tight.
  • a central lubricant supply pipe 5 ends in a common channel 6. This channel extends over the whole length of the box so that all boreholes are supplied with the lubricant which is conveyed through the boreholes 3 and 7 to the individual points of lubrication by means of a pump 8.
  • the lubricant which is conveyed by the pump flows through the central supply pipe 5 into the channel 6.
  • the lubricant pressure causes the float ball 2 to rise (see FIG. 2: the dashand-dot circle marks the initial position of the ball and the fulldrawn circle marks the final position of the ball) and the lubricant flows through the boreholes 3 and 7 to the points of lubrication.
  • An oil circulation indicating instrument which comprises a housing, a plurality of bore holes angularly disposed within said housing in an upwardly-downwardly direction, said boreholes communicating at their lower end with a common channel disposed in said housing, additional boreholes communicating with each of said angularly disposed boreholes at substantially the center thereof and with the elements to be lubricated, a movable float means disposed in each of said angularly disposed boreholes and adapted to be raised to a point above said additional boreholes or lowered to a point below said additional boreholes, a central lubricant supply pipe communicating with said common channel for the introduction of the lubricant thereto and means to indicate movement of said float means.
