The purpose of the present invention is to provide a scroll fluid machine configured so that, during maintenance, grease can be easily supplied to a bearing regardless of an installation environment, thereby improving work efficiency. The present invention provides a scroll fluid machine characterized by comprising: a stationary scroll obtained by forming a wrap section on an end plate; an orbiting scroll obtained by forming a wrap section on an end plate such that the wrap section faces the wrap section of the stationary scroll; a drive shaft for driving the orbiting scroll; an orbiting bearing for supporting the drive shaft relative to the orbiting scroll; and a plurality of pouring openings for pouring a lubricant into the orbiting bearing from the outside.

The invention relates to an external gear machine (1) in particular an external gear pump or an external gear motor, having at least two gears (3, 4) that mesh with each other in external engagement, wherein the gears (3, 4) are surrounded by a housing (10), wherein one gear (4) has at least one bearing journal (7, 8) and the other gear (3) has a driving or driven journal (5), which are in each case mounted in a bearing bushing (38) so as to respectively be rotatable about a rotation axis (13, 14), wherein a bearing sleeve pp with an anti-twist element is arranged in the bearing bushing (38). In order to improve the external gear machine, in particular with regard to the materials that can be used for producing the bearing bushings and/or the service life, the anti-twist element of the bearing sleeve is arranged in a through-hole of the bearing bushing and is combined with a filter device and/or throttle device via which a working medium of the external gear machine (1) reaches the bearing sleeve.

A rotary internal combustion engine with a housing having a fluid passage defined therethrough opening into a portion of its inner surface engaging each peripheral or apex seal of the rotor. An injector has an inlet for fluid communication with a pressurized lubricant source and a selectively openable and closable outlet in fluid communication with the fluid passage for delivering the pressurized lubricant to each seal through the fluid passage. A housing for a Wankel engine and a method of lubricating peripheral seals of a rotor in an internal combustion engine are also discussed.

A vane motor with a rotor body driven by compressed air having vane gaps for radially movable vanes and a rotor shaft for rotatably bearing the rotor body relative to a motor bushing. A method for lubricating a vane motor that ensures particularly long, low-service operation is provided. The rotor shaft is configured as a hollow shaft with a first lubricant reservoir in the interior. The first lubricant reservoir has a lubricant filling opening accessible from the outside of the vane motor. The first lubricant reservoir is connected by at least one radial lubricant hole to at least one further lubricant reservoir arranged in a section of the rotor body between two vane gaps, and/or is connected to an outlet opening arranged in one of the vane gaps for supplying lubricant into the vane gap.
