Multiple filling tubes 17 are installed at one end of the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20, with the diameter of the filling tubes 17 increasing sequentially from right to left to ensure a consistent amount of lubricating oil is added at a time. In this design, five filling tubes are used. Each filling tube 17 corresponds one-to-one with a rotating component 8. Lubricating oil is input through the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20, flows through the filling tubes 17, and outputs to lubricate the rotating component 8. A camera 13 is installed on one side of the rotating component 8, and a camera 15 is installed on one side of the rotating component 12.

[0023] One end of the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20 is equipped with a quick plug 3, which is connected to the outlet of the fuel dispenser. The other end of the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20 is equipped with a solenoid valve 7.

[0024] A solenoid valve 5 is provided in the input direction of the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20, so that the lubricating oil in the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20 flows into multiple filling pipes 17.

[0025] At the predetermined lubrication time, put the pneumatic fuel dispenser into operation, connect the dispenser outlet to the quick plug 3, open the solenoid valve 5, start the fuel dispenser to lubricate the rotating part 8, and observe the lubrication status through the camera 15.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-2As shown, an inverted U-shaped oil supply pipe 10 is also installed on the U-shaped input / output oil pipe 20. A horizontally arranged balance oil pipe 18 is connected to the U-shaped oil supply pipe 10. Multiple filling pipes 19 are installed on the balance oil pipe 18. There are five filling pipes 19, and their diameters increase sequentially from the middle of the solenoid valve 16 to both sides, ensuring that the amount of lubricating oil added at one time is the same. Each filling pipe 19 corresponds one-to-one with a rotating component 12. Lubricating oil is input through the U-shaped oil supply pipe 10, flows through the balance oil pipe 18 and the filling pipes 19, and outputs to lubricate the rotating component 12. A solenoid valve 4 is installed at the inlet of the U-shaped oil supply pipe 10, a solenoid valve 6 is installed at the outlet of the U-shaped oil supply pipe 10, and a solenoid valve 16 connected to the balance oil pipe 18 is installed in the middle of the U-shaped oil supply pipe 10.

[0027] After the rotating part 18 is lubricated, close the solenoid valve 25; open the solenoid valve 14 and the solenoid valve 516 to lubricate the rotating part 212, and observe the lubrication status through the camera 13; after lubrication is completed, close the solenoid valve 14 and the solenoid valve 516.

The outlet of the fuel dispenser is connected to the quick plug 3, the solenoid valve 2 5 is opened, and the fuel dispenser is started to lubricate the rotating part 1 8. The lubrication status is observed through the camera 15.

[0032] After the rotating part 18 is lubricated, close the solenoid valve 25; open the solenoid valve 14 and the solenoid valve 516 to lubricate the rotating part 212, and observe the lubrication status through the camera 13; after lubrication is completed, close the solenoid valve 14 and the solenoid valve 516.

[0033] After lubrication is complete, turn off the fuel dispenser and disconnect the fuel dispenser from quick connector 3. Connect the compressed air interface to quick connector 3. Open solenoid valves 1 (4), 3 (6), and 4 (7) to allow compressed air to recover grease from the upper pipeline. After cleaning the pipeline, close these three solenoid valves. Then, open solenoid valves 2 (5) and 4 (7) to allow compressed air to recover grease from the lower pipeline. This oil return process can also be performed by opening all solenoid valves at once.
