Abstract: A bushing lubricator includes an elongate body having a lubricant passage extending from an inlet opening to an outlet port. The elongate body includes a connection portion at the inlet opening for engaging with a lubricant tray of a lubricating system, a main body portion in a central region, and a bushing lubricator portion of a width to accommodate a bushing with an interior surface of the bushing surrounding the bushing lubricator portion. The outlet port on a periphery of the bushing lubricator portion discharges lubricant onto the interior surface of a bushing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the hydrolysis of nitriles of the formulae and respectively of amides of the formulae in which R is in each case hydrogen or C1-20-alkyl, to give the corresponding amides and/or acids and respectively to give the corresponding acids.

Abstract: A washer is provided. The washer includes a housing, a tub in the housing, a laundry drum rotatably mounted in the tub, a heating element in the tub, and a heating element retainer, on an inner surface of the tub, for retaining the heating element.
