LUBRICANT BATH STRUCTURE AND ROBOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18567130 titled 'LUBRICANT BATH STRUCTURE AND ROBOT

The patent application describes a lubricant bath structure with a casing that has various holes for injecting, discharging, and checking the liquid level of the lubricant.

  • The casing includes a supply hole for injecting the lubricant, a discharge hole for discharging the lubricant, a part attachment hole for attaching a mechanism part, and a liquid level check hole for monitoring the liquid level.
  • The part attachment hole can be opened/closed by detaching/attaching a mechanism part on the outside surface of the casing.
  • The liquid level check hole is positioned to confirm that the lubricant level is below the part attachment hole during discharge.

Potential Applications: - Industrial machinery lubrication systems - Automotive lubricant storage and distribution systems - Marine lubricant management systems

Problems Solved: - Efficient lubricant storage and distribution - Easy monitoring of lubricant levels - Convenient attachment of mechanism parts

Benefits: - Improved lubrication system performance - Reduced maintenance time and costs - Enhanced equipment longevity

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Lubricant Bath Structure for Industrial Machinery" This technology can be utilized in various industries such as manufacturing, automotive, and marine for efficient lubricant storage and distribution, leading to improved equipment performance and reduced maintenance costs.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the part attachment hole function in the lubricant bath structure? 2. What are the potential benefits of using this innovative lubricant bath structure in industrial machinery applications?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in lubricant storage and distribution systems to enhance the efficiency and performance of industrial equipment.


Original Abstract Submitted

A lubricant bath structure includes a casing for storing a liquid lubricant, where: the casing is provided with a supply hole, a discharge hole, a part attachment hole, and a liquid level check hole that penetrate from inside to outside of the casing; the supply hole enables injecting the lubricant into the casing; the discharge hole enables discharging the lubricant in the casing; the part attachment hole is opened/closed by detaching/attaching a mechanism part that is to be detachably attached to an outside surface of the casing; and the liquid level check hole can be arranged at a position coincident with or lower than a lower edge of the part attachment hole, but higher than the discharge hole, and, during the discharge of the lubricant, it is possible to confirm that a liquid level of the lubricant has reached below the lower edge of the part attachment hole.
