Features: The content of the book is divided into ten chapters:
Chapter 1: Friction, Wear, and Lubrication—Focuses on the fundamental knowledge of tribology and the types, working principles, and basic theoretical knowledge of elastohydrodynamic lubrication, friction, wear, and lubrication.
Chapter 2: Lubricating Materials—Elaborates on the types, performance characteristics, and applications of common greases, lubricating oils, solid lubricants, and additives, as well as lubricating oils used in metallurgical plants.
Chapter 3: Lubricating Elements and Devices—Discusses the functions, types, structures, working principles, advantages, disadvantages, performance indicators, and relevant parameters of individual lubricating devices in wet and dry lubrication systems, including storage oil devices (oil tanks), oil supply devices (pumps, distributors), purification and filtration devices (oil filters, oil purifiers), heat exchange devices (coolers), oil circuit control devices (valves), grease supply devices (grease lubrication stations), quantitative distribution devices (greasers and oilers), and inspection and protection devices. Each device is illustrated with detailed diagrams or schematic diagrams of its working principle.
Chapter 4: Central Lubrication Systems—Introduces centralized lubrication systems for wet, dry, oil mist, grease injection, and rolling mill process lubrication, including their system requirements, composition, working principles, operational and maintenance characteristics, as well as related design calculations and examples.
Chapter 5: Lubrication of Typical Components—Covers the lubrication requirements, characteristics, grease selection principles, lubrication cycles, and grease consumption of representative typical components such as sliding bearings, rolling bearings, gear drives, gear couplings, rolling mill main couplings, hydrodynamic bearings, and steel wire ropes.
Chapter 6: Lubrication of General Equipment—Briefly introduces the lubrication of general equipment, including automobiles, steam locomotives, bridge cranes, fans, air compressors, water pumps, large motors, belt conveyors, metal cutting machines, forging hammers, and transformers.
Chapter 7: Installation and Maintenance of Lubricating Equipment—Describes the installation work procedures, preparation and organization of installation work, cleaning, adjustment, commissioning, and put-into-production during the installation process of lubricating equipment, as well as the problems that may occur during installation and their solutions. It also covers the effective management of daily maintenance, periodic inspections, repairs, and on-site lubrication work of lubricating equipment.
Chapter 8: Operation Monitoring of Lubricating Oils—Focuses on the operation monitoring of lubricating oils.
Chapter 9: Pollution Control of Hydraulic Lubricating Oils—Emphasizes the pollution control of hydraulic lubricating oils.
Chapter 10: Quality Identification Methods of Lubricating Oils and Greases—Focuses on the quality identification methods of lubricating oils and greases, as well as the storage, handling, transportation, and regeneration of lubricating oils and greases.
The appendix at the end of the book provides performance comparisons of some domestic and international lubricating oils.
This book is suitable for engineering technicians in relevant factories, scientific research and design units, and mechanical construction departments; it can also be used as a reference for faculty and students of engineering colleges and universities, as well as workers with a certain level of cultural knowledge.
