<p>LUBRICATING COLLAR FOR CABLE A lubricating collar for cable includes a truncated conically-shaped funnel section forming an entry guide terminating in an annular collar section that forms a lubricant discharge station which is openly exposed to the cable entry end of the collar. An internal chamber in the collar section supplies lubricant to orifices in the side wall thereof. Downstream of the lubricant discharge station there is a brush with a multitude of elongated fibrous bristles projecting radially from the side wall of the collar into the internal passageway of the collar to contact and spread lubricant on the outer surface of the cable when moved within the collar to a discharge guide section.</p> |
