Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lubrication equipment, and more particularly to lubrication pumps. Background Technology
[0002] A lubrication pump, as a lubrication device, is used to inject lubricating oil into mechanical equipment for periodic lubrication, reducing frictional resistance of transmission pairs and slowing down wear. A lubrication pump generally includes an oil tank, pump base, pump body, and piping. The oil tank and pump body are respectively mounted on the pump base, which supports both. The pump base is generally made of cast metal (e.g., aluminum) and has internal flow channels for easy connection to the piping.

The oil flowing out from the first connector 50 is transmitted to the transmission pair to lubricate the transmission pair.
[0026] The lubrication pump 100 provided by this utility model includes a pump base 70, which is integrally injection molded, thus greatly reducing the cost of the pump base 70. Furthermore, the absence of flow channels within the pump base 70 also helps reduce mold costs and subsequent processing costs, thereby lowering the manufacturing cost of the pump base 70. The flow channels in existing designs are replaced by the first connector 50 of this utility model, ensuring smooth oil flow.
[0027] Preferably, the motor 10 is a stepper motor or a servo motor.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the pump base 70 is arranged in a flat plate shape, and several mounting ears 71 are connected to the rear side of the pump base 70.

[0034] The pump base 70 of this utility model is integrally injection molded using a colored material. At this time, the pump base 70 is inherently colored, such as red, green, gray, etc., so there is no need to spray paint the pump base later.
[0035] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a filter screen 41 is installed at the lower end of the pump body 40 to filter the oil in the oil tank 20 before pumping it out.
