Embodiment Construction

[0037] As noted above, the subject matter disclosed in this specification relates to a lubricating oil in a conveyor. Specifically, the subject matter disclosed in this specification relates to analyzing lubricating oil in conveyors.

[0038] As stated in this specification, it can be difficult to effectively monitor the quality of lubricating oil in a conveyor, which can lead to unintended dips in oil quality and ultimately damage to conveyors that rely on this oil for lubrication.

[0039] Contrary to conventional approaches, various embodiments of the present invention include using test data extracted from lubricating oils to analyze ; ships, transport ships, barges and other marine vehicles; and / or aircraft, helicopters and other air vehicles) lubricating systems, computer program products and related methods. In particular embodiments, a system includes at least one computing device configured to monitor lubricant from a conveyor by performing operations comprising: d...

Abstract

The invention discloses a transportation machine lubricating oil monitoring system and related methods. The system is provided with at least one computing device configured to monitor a lubrication oil from a transportation machine by performing actions including: determining an initial ideal remaining life for the lubrication oil from the transportation machine; determining a temperature-based remaining life for the lubrication oil based upon a temperature measurement of the lubrication oil; calculating a contamination factor of the lubrication oil based upon a contamination sample of the lubrication oil; determining an updated ideal life remaining for the lubrication oil based upon the contamination factor, the initial ideal remaining life, and the temperature-based remaining life; and determining an actual life remaining for the lubrication oil based upon the updated ideal life remaining and a life loss factor.
