INDUSTRIAL LUBRICATION SYSTEM DISTRIBUTED VIA OIL MIST

摘要

The invention relates to an industrial lubrication system distributed via oil mist, comprising: a console (1) having one or a number of micro-injection heads (2) provided with means for supplying pressurised oil (13) and means for supplying compressed air (14); pipes (5) that transport the mist to devices for condensation and application over the point of demand (6); collectors (8); and return lines (7) to the console. Each micro-injection head (2) comprises a pressurised oil chamber (9) and a pressurised air chamber (10) which are interconnected via one or a number of discharge openings (11), via which the flow of oil has a Reynolds number less than 20, as well as outlet openings (12) aligned with the discharge openings (11), permitting the nebulisation of the oil with a low compressed air consumption and a resulting energy saving.
