  • Patent number: 3951235
    Abstract: A greasing device for cables comprising at least one hollow body having walls defining an inner chamber adapted to be filled with a predetermined quantity of a lubricating material having a relatively high coefficient of viscosity, and a predetermined pressure. At least one couple of apertures are provided through said walls for a cable to be greased to extend therethrough and across said inner chamber so as to come into contact with said lubricating material inside said chamber; the size of said apertures being such that a predetermined clearance is present between the periphery of each aperture and the surface of the cable when the latter is mounted through the greasing device. A weighted member travels through the chamber housing, while acting on the grease therein, to force the grease toward the cable passing through the housing and toward the apertures in the housing through which the cable passes.
