A vehicle drive device is provided with a lubricating path including a first oil pump to pump up an oil stored in the casing by the first oil pump and to supply the oil to the power transmission mechanism for lubricating the power transmission mechanism, and a cooling path that is separated from the lubricating circuit and provided for the rotating electric machine, the cooling path including a second oil pump to pump up the oil stored in the casing by the second oil pump to supply the oil exclusively to the rotating electric machine for cooling the rotating electric machine, the second oil pump is an electric oil pump, and the cooling path is provided with an oil cooler cooling the oil to be supplied to the rotating electric machine.

A delivery device for delivering oil from an oil sump in a motor vehicle has an oil pump with two pressure stages. The pressure stages deliver oil from a common suction connection to different outlet connections. The oil is delivered by the pressure stages at different delivery pressures and in different delivery volumes. The delivery device furthermore has a direct drive, which is coupled to an internal combustion engine, and an activatable electric drive.

An engine lubrication system including an oil passage allowing inflow of oil in a crank chamber partitioned off in a crankcase of an engine, at least a part of the oil passage being formed by the crankcase, a scavenge pump accommodated in the crankcase and sucking the oil from the oil passage, an oil tank accumulating the oil sucked by the scavenge pump, and a feed pump supplying, to the engine, the oil accumulated in the oil tank.

An oil supply system for a gas turbine engine has a lubricant pump delivering lubricant to an outlet line. The outlet line is split into at least a hot line and into a cool line, with the hot line directed primarily to locations associated with an engine that are not intended to receive cooler lubricant, and the cool line directed through one or more heat exchangers at which lubricant is cooled. The cool line then is routed to a fan drive gear system of an associated gas turbine engine. A method and apparatus are disclosed. The heat exchangers include at least an air/oil cooler wherein air is pulled across the air/oil cooler to cool oil. The air/oil cooler is provided with an ejector tapping compressed air from a compressor section to increase airflow across the air/oil cooler.

A lubricating oil supply structure includes: a shaft; a bearing supporting the shaft and having an oil supply port, through which lubricating oil is supplied to between the shaft and the bearing, and an oil introduction port, through which the lubricating oil is introduced; a first oil passage, connected to the oil supply port, distributing the lubricating oil from an oil pump toward the oil supply port; a second oil passage, connected to the oil introduction port, supplying the lubricating oil introduced through the oil introduction port to a supply destination; a connection oil passage, formed by a gap between the bearing and the shaft, connecting between the first oil passage and the second oil passage, and a throttle portion, formed on a part of the connection oil passage, suppressing a flow of the lubricating oil from the oil supply port toward the oil introduction port.

An internal combustion engine has an oil circuit for supplying oil to powertrain components and cylinder head components of the internal combustion engine. At least one oil pump and one oil filter module are incorporated into the oil circuit. The oil circuit branches into a powertrain oil gallery and a cylinder head oil gallery in the oil filter module or downstream of the oil filter module in a flow direction. The oil circuit is designed so that a lower oil pressure prevails in the powertrain oil gallery than in the cylinder head oil gallery.
