SIMPLEX OIL CUP An oil cup designed especially for use on the high pres-sure air cylinder of the cross-compound type of air pumpis shown in the drawing. This cup consists of a cylindricalbrass casting made in two parts, with a J^-in. brass pipe in-serted as shown. The pipe is threaded at one end andscrewed into the bottom of the brass cup, and the other endis reduced to 7/o2-in. oil intake.

Cross Section of Simplex Oil Cup in diameter is fitted into the outlet, thus preventing thecylinder from being flooded with oil. These cups requireno regulating as they operate only while the air pumps arerunning, and as the feed is regular and the amount of oilonly sufficient to meet the requirement of the pump, theyare very economical. In the cup illustrated old choke plugs from bulls-eyelubricators were used.
