Abstract: A grease gun cylinder walled cartridge adapted for direct attachment to any of a variety of grease gun head constructions and grease pumping systems, wherein the cartridge wall can be of any color or completely clear and see through, wherein the grease column within the cartridge is pressured toward and through an inlet port in the gun head, which port opens on the suction stroke of a piston mounted in said cylinder into a loading portion of a cylinder of the grease pumping system, and wherein the grease column pressuring means is ambient air pressure.

Abstract: A higher viscosity fluid dispensing apparatus is provided having a reservoir chamber and a pump head positioned adjacent to an end of the reservoir chamber. The pump head includes a pump body having a pump cavity formed therein, a first one-way valve between the reservoir chamber and the pump cavity, a piston slidably engaged with the pump cavity and having a pump outlet in fluid communication with the pump cavity, and a second one-way valve between the pump outlet and the first one-way valve. The first one-way valve and second one-way valve cooperate to draw a higher viscosity fluid from the reservoir chamber into the pump cavity and expel the fluid out of the pump cavity through the pump outlet.

Abstract: A grease gun cylinder walled cartridge adapted for direct attachment to any of a variety of grease gun head constructions and grease pumping systems, wherein the cartridge wall can be of any color or completely clear and see through, wherein the grease column within the cartridge is pressured toward and through an inlet port in the gun head, which port opens on the section stroke of a piston mounted in said cylinder into a loading portion of a cylinder of the grease pumping system, and wherein the grease column pressuring means is ambient air pressure.
