A gas turbine engine includes an engine static structure. A rotating structure is configured to rotate relative to the engine static structure. The rotating structure has a target area with first and second directions. The first direction is greater than the second direction. A lubrication system includes a nozzle having a non-circular exit aimed at the target area. The exit provides a width and a height. The width is greater than the height. The width is oriented in the first direction.

A grease tool and method for greasing a dual angular contact bearing where the grease tool is fabricated from a single unitary piece of material. The grease tool comprises a cylindrical hub, a flange supported adjacent only one end of the cylindrical hub, and a grease fitting attached to the grease tool to facilitate a supply of grease thereto. During use, a pair of spaced apart O-rings, accommodated by an exterior surface of the cylindrical hub, form a pair of grease seals with an inwardly facing surface of an inner race of the dual angular contact bearing. A supply passage conveys the supplied grease from the grease fitting to a grease outlet(s) located in an exterior cylindrical surface of the grease tool, between the pair of O-rings, for conveyance of the supplied grease radially to the inner race of the dual angular contact bearing and facilitate repacking thereof.

A fluid system of a machine. The fluid system includes a fluid reservoir, a pump coupled to the fluid reservoir, a filter coupled to the pump and a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a first port, a second port coupled to the first port and to the fluid reservoir, a third port coupled to the first port, and a first check valve positioned between the first port and the second port. The fluid system further includes a second check valve positioned between the filter and the third port.

A grease tool and method for greasing a wheel bearing where the grease tool includes a handle and manifold. The handle and manifold define a central passage that extends through the grease tool. A supply channel is formed radially between the central passage and an exterior surface of the grease tool and extends axially through the handle to an annular supply recess formed in the manifold. A grease fitting attached to the grease tool to facilitate a supply of grease through the supply channel and the supply recess to an inwardly facing surface of the wheel bearing. The central passage in the grease tool facilitating sliding the grease tool over an axle that extends through the wheel bearing and positioning of the grease tool within the wheel bearing evenly repacking of the bearing in a position over the axle.

Disclosed is a quick-disassembly nipple connector structure, which is mainly composed of a hollow pipe, a pivoting assembly, a screwing member, a plurality of gripping jaws, a sleeve, a handle and a spring. The handle is additionally disposed on the sleeve and the pivoting assembly; when the handle is not pulled, the sleeve is located at a lock position to lock a grease nipple; and when the handle is pulled downwards, the sleeve is located at a release position to release the grease nipple. The quick-disassembly nipple connector structure can be rapidly switched to the lock position or the release position, thus, facilitating operation, shortening the work time, achieving accurate alignment, improving work efficiency, and avoiding damage to internal parts caused by excessive force application by users.

Disclosed is a quick-disassembly nipple connector structure, which is mainly composed of a pipe, a pivoting assembly, a screwing member, a plurality of gripping jaws, a sleeve and a handle. The handle can be pulled by users to enable the quick-disassembly nipple connector structure to be rapidly connected to or separated from a grease nipple. When the handle is pulled downwards, the sleeve is located at a lock position to lock the grease nipple; and when the handle is pulled upwards, the sleeve is located at a release position to release the grease nipple. Thus, the quick-disassembly nipple connector structure has the advantages of being capable of improving work efficiency, high in positioning speed, high in accuracy and good in fixing property and has a good overall constituent strength, so that the motion stability is improved, and the operation smoothness and service life are ensured.
