METHOD IN AND DEVICE FOR THE MANUAL LUBRICATION OF A PLURALITY OF LUBRICATION POINTS

摘要

The invention relates to a method in and a device for the manual lubrication of a plurality of lubrication points (10) with a quantity of lubricant individually predetermined for each lubrication point. The lubrication points are provided with individual identification elements (11). Information on the quantity of lubricant that is to be administered to each individual lubrication point in each instance of lubrication is stored in a memory (12). During lubrication the lubrication point is identified and information on the predetermined quantity of lubricant is retrieved from the memory (12), following which this is administered to the lubrication point. Information on the lubrication carried out and the time thereof is stored in the memory. The device comprises a lubricant gun (1) with a lubricant reservoir, a pump device, a measuring device (4) with indicating element (5) and a nozzle (6). The measuring device (4) and the pump device are connected to a control element (8). Connected to the control element is a memory containing stored data on the lubrication requirement of each lubrication point. The lubricant gun (1) communicates with the memory for transfer to the control element (8) of a lubricant quantity specification for each lubrication point and for feeding information stored in the control element (8) on lubrication carried out at the lubrication points. A lubrication point identification device (9) arranged on the nozzle (6) automatically identifies the lubrication point (10) when the nozzle (6) is connected thereto with the identification element (11). Means are provided for storing data on the quantity of lubricant administered to the lubrication point in question in each lubrication operation.
