3. In a lubricator or liquid-dispenser a reservoir suitably supported, a duct or tube leading therefrom and to a drilling-tool operatively mounted in a drilling-machine, the said duct or tube being formed in two sections, the lower section being swiveled to the upper section, a suitable spring-valve in the ductI or tube and means connected with the pressure-lever of the drilling-machine having snitable connection with said valve adapted to intermittingly open and close the valve.

4. A lubricator for drilling-machines, comprising a reservoir suitably mounted thereon, a tube orduct leading therefrom and to the drill-tool, said tube being formed in two sections, the lower one swiveled to thenpper section, a springwalve in the tube or duct, a shiftable collar connected with said valve and a lever arranged to engage said collar frictionally and thereby operate said valve,A

7. In a lubricator orliquid-dispenser,a suitable dnct leading from a source of supply to a drilling-tool, a valve in Said duct, a shaft, a shiftable collar mounted on said shaft and connected with said valve, a shiftable lever supported from said shaft and adapted intermittingly to frictionally engage said shiftable collar, and means for turning said shaft, sub* stantially as and for the purposes set forth.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
