APPARATUS FOR OIL LUBRICATION OF A ROTATIONALLY FIXED CONNECTION BETWEEN TWO SHAFTS
20230025047 · 2023-01-26 ·

An apparatus for oil lubrication of a rotationally fixed connection between two shafts. A first shaft engages with a hollow region of the second shaft. The shafts are operatively connected to each other in a form-fitting manner in the overlapping region. Oil is introduced into a first chamber in the hollow region, which chamber is connected to a second chamber in the hollow region. The second chamber is connectable to a third chamber is arranged in the overlapping region. The fluidic connection between the second chamber and the third chamber is separated above a defined oil volume in the second chamber and above a rotational speed threshold of the shafts via a sealing element. The sealing element is reversibly deformable by the oil volume in the second chamber and the centrifugal force acting thereon and, in the deformed state, seals the connection between the second and third chambers.

GEARED GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH COMBINED SPRAY BAR AND SCAVENGE COMPONENT
20230228215 · 2023-07-20 ·

A gear reduction includes a sun gear that engages a plurality of planet gears mounted on a carrier. The planet gears are engaged with a ring gear. The ring gear is fixed against rotation such that rotation of the sun gear causes rotation of the planet gears to cause rotation of the carrier. There are spray bars positioned circumferentially between adjacent ones of the planet gears. The spray bars have jet openings, such that lubricant can be passed directly onto teeth on the sun gear. One of the side faces has a plurality of windows such that oil can be scavenged. There are side surfaces between plurality of windows that do not have an opening. A gas turbine engine and a spray bar are also disclosed.
