I was going to say a gearbox to an AIr Cooled Condenser fan.

That axle shaft was probably clicking on left turns for months. AmIrite?

Hummer and buffalobo are both pretty much correct. It's a force feed lubricator pump for a compressor. The first picture is actually the gear box that drives the lubricator pumps. I used to work on the compressors themselves but now I mostly work on all of the auxiliary equipment and controls for the compressors and I find that type of work much more enjoyable.

Piped up several of them(gas compressors) as a young pipe fitter. Did a Waukesha V16 one time, thing was a monster.
