Abstract: A refueling apparatus. The refueling apparatus having a combination float control module and fluid flow control valve for use in high pressure, high flow rate refueling systems. The refueling apparatus further having a fluid flow control valve module, a fluid level sensor module having a sensor, and a testing module.

Abstract: A solid lubricant formulation useful for lubricating the flanges of locomotive wheels, railcar wheels, rail tracks and in applications where it is desirable to reduce friction when metal contacts metal. The solid lubricant formulation including at least one non-polylactic acid-based polymeric carrier, at least one polylactic acid-based polymer, and at least one lubricant powder.

Abstract: A combination float control module and fluid flow control valve for use in high pressure, high flow rate refueling systems.

Abstract: A lubricant dispenser for dispensing at least one lubricant stick. The lubricant dispenser has a housing for holding the lubricant stick. The housing has a longitudinally slidable carriage member. The lubricant dispenser has a linear actuator for sliding the carriage member along a longitudinal axis resulting in the advancement of the lubricant stick out of said housing and against a surface to be lubricated.

Abstract: A solid lubricant and composition useful for lubricating the flanges of locomotive wheels, railcar wheels, rail tracks and in applications where it is desirable to reduce friction when metal contacts metal. The solid lubricant having from about 25% to about 70% by volume of a biopolymer polymeric carrier, about 5% to 75% percent by volume of organic and inorganic extreme pressure additives, about 0% to 20% by volume synthetic extreme pressure anti-wear liquid oil, and about 0% to 1% by volume optical brightener.

Abstract: A solid lubricant and composition useful for lubricating the flanges of locomotive wheels, railcar wheels, rail track and in applications where it is desirable to reduce friction when metal contacts metal. The solid lubricant having from about twenty-five percent to about seventy percent by volume of a polymeric carrier, about five to seventy-five percent by volume of organic and inorganic extreme pressure additives, about zero to twenty percent by volume synthetic extreme pressure anti-wear liquid oil, and about zero to one percent by volume optical brightener.

Abstract: A lubricant applicator for disposing lubricant onto a metal surface. The lubricant applicator generally includes a combination holder and dispenser. Lubricant is disposed from the same portion of the combination holder and dispenser as the lubricant was inserted, in the rear portion of the combination holder and dispenser. A dispensing system applies constant force to the rear portion of the combination holder and dispenser so that lubricant is disposed from the rear portion and out of the front portion of the combination holder and dispenser. Lubricant, generally in the form of a stick, can therefore be easily replaced without removing the applicator from its location or without removing its mounting arrangement. Various applications and mounting arrangements for the lubricant applicator are disclosed, as is a method for providing a lubricant applicator.

Abstract: An improved lubricant stick for utilization with a constant force spring style stick lubricant applicator for rail wheel flanges. The lubricant stick defining therein a channel for receiving a portion of the constant force spring therein, thereby reducing wear and tear on the constant force spring and providing for a more consistent application of lubricant to the wheel flange.
