  • Publication number: 20250250973
    Abstract: A tool including a core ring having a first end, an opposing second end, and a first radial engagement component. The tool also includes a pin including a shaft having first and second sides. The first side of the shaft is disposed at least adjacent an opening through the ends of the core ring. A second radial engagement component of the pin is configured to engage with the first radial engagement component of the core ring. The second side of the shaft extends axially outwardly from the second end of the core ring. A sleeve is connected to the core ring. The first side of the shaft of the pin is slidable with respect to the sleeve. The sleeve and the core ring together are axially shiftable relative to the pin. At least a portion of the sleeve extends axially outwardly from the first side of the core ring.

  • Publication number: 20240077074
    Abstract: A device including a reservoir configured to receive a lubricant from a machine lubricated with the lubricant. The device also includes a pressure equalizer connected to the reservoir. The device also includes a first loop comprising a first line system through which the lubricant flows between the machine and the reservoir. The lubricant within the first loop is at a first pressure. The device also includes a temperature regulation system configured to regulate a temperature of the lubricant. The device also includes a second loop comprising a second line system through which the lubricant flows between the temperature regulation system and the reservoir. The lubricant within the second loop is at a second pressure that is less than the first pressure. The second loop is separate from the first loop.
