A device which is designed as a spray head and is intended for lubricating and cooling molds, in particular forging dies and tools in metal forming, is described, in which device the feed passages for coolant, compressed air and lubricant are accommodated in a common compact housing but are designed to run separately from one another, and in which spray nozzles are in each case assigned to these separate flow passages, these spray nozzles being specifically designed for spraying the lubricant and the coolant, respectively. By means of this measure, the spraying operation can be designed in an optimum manner and it becomes possible to keep the lubricant and coolant consumption low.

The invention claimed is: 1. A device for lubricating and cooling molds or dies, having flow passages for feeding a lubricant and a coolant and having nozzles for spraying the lubricant and the coolant, wherein the flow passages for lubricant and the flow passages for coolant are laid in a common housing, which can be attached to guide arms which can be moved into the open molds or dies, and are separate from one another, with nozzles designed for spraying the lubricant assigned to the lubricant flow passages, and nozzles designed for spraying the coolant assigned to the coolant flow passages, and wherein the housing is provided with a central chamber, and the central chamber is provided with a feed passage, opening out eccentrically and in particular tangentially, for the coolant and is closed off by a circular cover disk which is provided with a plurality of coolant bores arranged so as to be distributed uniformly over a diameter of the cover disk. 2. The device as, claimed in claim 1, wherein the cover disk is screwed into a cover ring and is closed off toward the central chamber by a flat gasket ring. 3. The device as claimed in claim 2, wherein annular passages are provided as encircling grooves in that region of the housing which surrounds the chamber, these grooves being closed off by the cover ring which encloses the cover disk. 4. The device as claimed in claim 3, wherein the outer annular passage is connected to a feed passage for lubricant, and the inner annular passage is connected to a feed passage for compressed air. 5. The device as claimed in claim 3, wherein lubricant spray nozzles, in particular in the form of minimum lubrication nozzles, are provided on the cover ring, these lubricant spray nozzles being arranged so as to be distributed uniformly over a diameter and being connected to respective branch passages for the compressed-air feed, which lead to the inner annular passage. 6. The device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the branch passages are designed as transverse bores which open into the core hole of the fastening thread for the lubricant spray nozzle. 7. The device as claimed in claim 4, wherein the feed passages for coolant, lubricant and compressed air are laid in a common housing and at least sections thereof are laid so as to run parallel to one another in a connection piece serving as guide arm. 8. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a swirl insert is arranged upstream of each coolant bore. 9. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein each swirl insert is screwed into a tapped hole, these tapped holes being provided on the side of the coolant nozzle bores which points toward the central chamber.
