Abstract: A pulverizer auxiliary lubrication system (12) particularly suited for use with a pulverizer bowl mill (10) of the type that is operative for effecting the grinding of material. The subject auxiliary lubrication system (12) is designed to be employed to supplement the pulverizer bowl mill's (10) existing lubrication system (48) whereby the beneficial features of the latter are retained while the disadvantages thereof are eliminated. To this end, the subject auxiliary lubrication system (12) includes an oil pump (72), an electric motor (74) coupled (76) to and operative for driving the oil pump (72), one or more filters (78), a pressure relief valve (80), connecting piping (82, 84, 86, 88), gauges (68, 94, 96) and controls (90, 92, 98, 100, 110), and means to supply oil to (86, 88) and draw oil from (82, 84) the pulverizer bowl mill (10).

Abstract: A band type spacing means that is used to maintain a predetermined spacing of elongate tubes as contained in a boiler furnace, superheater, or any of various types of reactor. The spacing means is adapted to combine simplicity of design and installation with the ability to remain continuously effective throughout a wide range of temperature and severe conditions of corrosion.
