A pump (1) comprising a lubricant reservoir (3) which feeds at least one pumping element (2), the reservoir (3) being delimited by a base (4) in correspondence with which, inside the reservoir (3) there is a rotating spatula (5) featured, equipped with at least one blade (5A) which, by rotating over the base (4), conveys the said lubricant towards an intake (2A) in the said pumping element (2) pushing the said lubricant through a plurality of passages (4A) made in the surface of the said base (4).

A lubricated rotational connection system provided with a free-wheel having a driving part and a driven part as well as at least one rotational link member arranged in a linking space, the linking space being located radially between a driving linking section and a driven linking section. A lubrication device comprises a fluid circulation device constrained to rotate with a driven pumping section of the driven part. The fluid circulation device is set in rotation with respect to a driving pumping section when the driving speed of rotation of the driving pumping section is lower than the driven speed of rotation of the driven pumping section about the axis of rotation in order to generate a forced circulation of the lubricating fluid within the linking space.

Provided is a construction machine allowing a deck to be compact while facilitating water supply to a urea tank and access to a grease supply device. The construction machine includes a hose reel for grease supply disposed on a front-side portion of a deck of an upper slewing body, and a urea tank 30 disposed rearward of the hose reel on the deck and stores urea water for exhaust gas purification. The urea tank has a front surface provided with a water inlet for resupplying urea water. The hose reel is disposed deviated from the water inlet widthwise of the upper slewing body. The water inlet has a distal end located on the front side of a rear end of the hose reel.

A lubricant cartridge container includes a cylindrical member, and a moving member moving inside the cylindrical member toward a lubricant inflow portion side as a fluid lubricant flows toward the lubricant inflow portion side when subjected to a suction force from a lubricating pump side. The moving member has a first moving main body portion moving inside the cylindrical member and contacting with a shoulder portion, and a second moving main body portion contacting with the lubricant inflow portion after the first moving main body portion comes in contact with the shoulder portion. The second moving main body portion has a center portion contacting with the lubricant inflow portion, and a step portion connecting the center portion and the first moving main body portion. The center portion has a recess recessed in a polygonal shape formed by connecting a plurality of apexes in a plan view.

A turbomolecular pump has a housing, a rotor shaft supported by a plurality of bearings for rotation relative to the housing about an axis of rotation, a deflector, a lubricant supply system and a lubricant transfer device provided on the rotor shaft. The bearings include a rolling bearing that receives lubricant from the lubricant supply system to via the lubricant transfer device. The rolling bearing is disposed intermediate the lubricant transfer device and the deflector and the deflector is configured to deflect lubricant that passes through the rolling bearing outwardly with respect to the rotor shaft.

An auxiliary oil supply apparatus for a rotating device (50, 51), the rotating device comprising a primary oil supply (52), a rotating component (50) and a static component (51) situated radially outwardly of a centre of rotation of the rotating component (50) and arranged to collect oil (58) held radially outwardly from the rotating component (50) as the rotating component rotates. The auxiliary oil apparatus comprises a scoop (56) associated with the rotating component (50) and is responsive to a change in a known parameter to move between a first position in the static component (51) to a second position between the static component (51) and the centre of rotation.

Provided are: a lubricating device for a bearing; and an exhaust turbosupercharger, wherein a bearing device (36) is provided with a housing (15) with a hollow shape, and journal bearings (21, 22) which rotatably support a rotary shaft (14) arranged inside the housing (15), the bearing device (36) being further provided with: a third feeding passage (43) and a fourth feeding passage (44) through which lubricant is fed toward outer circumferential surfaces (21b, 22b) of the journal bearings (21, 22); a sixth feeding passage (46) through which lubricant is fed toward a space section (16A) between the journal bearings (21, 22); and a guide section which guides, toward inner circumferential surfaces (21c, 22c) of the journal bearings (21, 22), the lubricant fed from the sixth feeding passage (46) to the space section (16A).
