<p>There is disclosed an adapter for use with a lubrication fitting of the type which includes a flow restrictor normally biased to a closed position to restrict the flow of fluid, the adapter comprising a generally tubular body having a top end and a bottom end, the top end of the tubular body being shaped and dimensioned to removably receive the output port of the lubrication fitting and a pin centrally positioned in the tubular body proximate the top end thereof, the pin being adapted to enter an opening of the lubrication fitting to move the flow restrictor from its normally closed position to an open position in which fluid can flow. The disclosed adapter is featured in that the diameter of the pin is smaller than the diameter of the opening of the lubrication fitting, and in that the pin is fixed to a separating disc which is mounted to the tubular body and is provided with a plurality of openings for allowing the fluid to flow into the lubrication fitting.</p> |
