Complete Specification Left, 27th June, 1896--Accepted, 5th Sept., 1896
1 BENJAMIN DYSON of Stone Mills, Rishworth near Ripponden in the County
of York, Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, to be as
follows:-
The object of my invention is to construct lubricators for crank pins and the
like so as to be automatic.
"
I construct my lubricator with teeth or flutings on its outside or periphery, into
which gears a worm wheel upon a shaft operated by ratchet and wheel, in turn
operated by connecting link from worm wheel and worm upon hollow tube or shaft,
from crank pin, such shaft conveying the lubricant to the said crank pin, slides,
eccentrics, or other going part of the engine.
Part of the teeth upon the lubricator may be cut away, so that when it reaches
this part it is inoperative; the worm may be put in and out of gear with the teeth
of the lubricator at will, by hand screw and slots in shaft bearings.
0
The action is as follows; the hollow shaft is cranked and connected to the crank
pin, it revolves and operates the worm and worm wheel, the latter having a
connecting rod or link from it to the ratchet of the ratchet wheel, which is upon
the shaft carrying the worm which gears with the teeth on the lubricator, this
ratchet is moved occasionally one tooth for each revolution of the worm wheel,
which may be varied as required; the worm revolves the lubricator which is
threaded internally, and a corresponding thread is upon the piston, the lubricator
descends upon the piston, forcing the lubricant through the tube to the crank pin
or other parts required lubricating.

I BENJAMIN DYSON of Stone Mills, Rishworth near Ripponden in the County
of York, Engineer do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in what
O manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
The object of my invention is to construct lubricators for crank pins and the
like, so as to be automatic.

page_text: wheel F, in turn operated by connecting rod or link G, from worm wheel H and
worm J upon the hollow tube or shaft K such shaft conveying the lubricant from
the lubricator to the said ecrank pin, slides, eccentrics or other going part of the
engine by means of the hollow crank arm Ki K⁹.
Part of the teeth upon the lubricator may be cut away at A¹, so that when it
reaches this part it is inoperative, the worm may be put in and out of gear with
the teeth of the lubricator at will, by hand lever M and screw L upon pivotted
shaft bearings N.
The action is as follows:-
The hollow shaft K is cranked and connected to the crank pin, it revolves and
operates the worm and worm wheel, the latter having a connecting rod or link G
from it to pivotted (arm El, carrying ratchet E, the said ratchet E operates the
ratchet wheel F, which is upon the shaft D carrying the worm C, which gears
with the teeth upon the periphery of the lubricator; this ratchet E is moved
occasionally one tooth for each revolution of the worm wheel H, and may be varied
as required.
The worm revolves the lubricator which is threaded internally at P, and a
corresponding thread is upon the piston R; the piston rod R is hollow, and
communicates with a tube R', through which the lubricant passes to the crank pin
or other going part of the engine. The lubricator cylinder descends upon the
piston, forcing the lubricant through the tube to the crank pin or other parts required
fubricating.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. In lubricators, moving the cylinder upon a fixed piston, and so feeding the
lubricant down the piston and tube to the crank pin or other going part of the
engine, substantially as described.
2. In lubricators the cylinder of which is internally threaded and outwardly
toothed for a corresponding piston and worm which are operated by a crank from
the crank pin or by other suitable means, substantially as shown and described.
3. In lubricators, the combination of cylinder A, piston R, tube R³, worm J,
worm wheel H, connecting rod G, ratchet E upon arm E', ratchet wheel F,
adjustable worm C, gearing with the teeth B upon the cylinder; all being
regulated and adjusted substantially as shown and described.
Dated this Twenty-sixth day of June 1896.
