[Summary] Oil pan (10) for containing engine oil is configured so as to be divided into metallic upper oil pan (13) and synthetic resin lower oil pan (14). Upper oil pan (13) and lower oil pan (14) are respectively provided with beam (25) and rib (24), which extend in the front-rear direction of the vehicle. Beam (25) and rib (24) are caused to face each other with gap (26) provided therebetween. When external force which can deform lower oil pan (14) in the front-rear direction of the vehicle acts on lower oil pan (14) due to the interference thereof with curbstones or the like, beam (25) and rib (24) come into contact with each other and prevent lower oil pan (14) from deforming in the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

A two-stroke engine comprises a first oiling system and a second oiling system. The first oiling system includes a low-pressure pump that distributes oil from a first oil tank to the two-stroke engine. The second oiling system includes a pump mechanically coupled to a crankshaft of the two-stroke engine, wherein the pump distributes oil from a second oil tank to an accessory at a pressure greater than the first oil pressure, wherein oil distributed to the accessory is returned to the second oil tank.

A two-part oil pan for an internal combustion engine has a box portion and a pan portion. The pan portion forms a floor of the oil pan and the box portion forms a pan wall of the oil pan. On a peripheral edge having a peripheral first sealing surface on the pan portion and a peripheral second sealing surface on the box portion, the box portion and the pan portion are interconnected in a sealed manner by means of first connection means. The pan portion and the box portion additionally are interconnected by at least one second connection means which is arranged within the edge and additionally at a distance from said edge.

An internal combustion engine includes a first blow-by gas passage defined in a second wall. The internal combustion engine includes a second blow-by gas passage defined in a third wall. The internal combustion engine includes a third blow-by gas passage defined in a fourth wall. The first blow-by gas passage to the third blow-by gas passage connect an oil chamber and an oil separator to each other. The second wall includes a first connecting path. The fourth wall includes a second connecting path. The first connecting path connects the first crank chamber and the second crank chamber. The second connecting path connects the third crank chamber and the fourth crank chamber to each other. The third wall does not have a passage connecting the second crank chamber and the third crank chamber to each other.

An idler shaft (100) used in an engine (10) having a gear cover (16) and a cylinder block (18). The idler shaft (100) includes an integral body (114) having a cylindrical shape. The idler shaft (100) is compressed between the gear cover (16) and the cylinder block (18) when assembled together such that the integral body (114) of the idler shaft (100) provides a clamp load and axial sealing between the gear cover (16) and the cylinder block (18). The idler shaft (100) further includes a passage way (116) fluidly connected to at least one of: the cylinder block (18) and the gear cover (16) for accommodating transmission of a fluid for the engine (10).

A turbocharger includes: a shaft connecting a compressor wheel and a turbine wheel; a thrust collar rotating together with the shaft; a thrust bearing holding the thrust collar for rotation; and a bearing housing holding the thrust bearing, wherein the bearing housing includes: an oil supply passage for supplying oil for lubrication to the thrust bearing; an oil discharge passage from which the oil supplied to the thrust bearing is discharged; a wall portion facing the thrust collar; and a groove portion formed in the wall portion and extending from the thrust collar toward a discharge port of the oil discharge passage.

A cooling structure for an outboard motor comprises an oil case which has an oil chamber for storing lubricant oil for an engine. Said cooling structure further comprises: a main exhaust gas passage which guides exhaust gas to a lower side; a cooling water outbound path which guides cooling supply water taken from outside the outboard motor to an upper side, and cools the periphery of the main exhaust gas passage in the oil case by means of the cooling supply water; a cooling water inbound path which guides cooling discharge water that has cooled the engine to the lower side and cools the oil chamber by means of said cooling discharge water; and a mixed fluid passage which, on a side below the oil case, cools the exhaust gas by mixing the exhaust gas and the cooling discharge water.

The present disclosure provides a lubrication system comprising: a pump having an inlet in fluid communication with a lubricant source and an outlet; a cooler having an inlet in fluid communication with the outlet of the pump and an outlet; a lubrication filter having an inlet in fluid communication with the outlet of the cooler and an outlet; a first delivery path in fluid communication with the outlet of the lubrication filter, the first delivery path being configured to deliver cooled, filtered lubricant to a bearing system of an engine; and a second delivery path in fluid communication with the outlet of the pump, the second delivery path being configured to deliver uncooled, unfiltered lubricant to piston cooling nozzles of the engine.

A lubricant system for supplying lubrication to a component in a turbine engine includes a lubricant reservoir, a supply line fluidly coupling the lubricant reservoir to the component in the turbine engine, a scavenge line fluidly coupling the component to the lubricant reservoir, and a bypass line fluidly coupling the supply line to the scavenge line and bypassing the component.
