Fluid metering and transfer system

摘要

A fluid metering and transfer system is disclosed in which, in a preferred embodiment, a fluid contained in a reservoir is transferred in small amounts by a dipper wire to a conduit extending through the bottom of the reservoir. The fluid is then distributed by gravity flow through the tube to the desired location. The dipper wire is rigidly mounted onto a pivotable shaft. When the present invention is used for transferring lubricating liquid to machines, the shaft of the present invention can be coupled to a shaft of the machine so that the present invention only transfers and distributes the lubricating liquid when the machine is operating.
