Demister for a gearing system and method

A demister for a gearing system includes a main body having an inner annular rim coupled to an outer annular rim through a first wall and a second wall opposite from the first wall. The main body is configured to be rotated about a central longitudinal axis to create centrifugal forces that separate oil mist particles from air. First fluid passages extend radially between and through the inner annular rim and the outer annular rim. The first fluid passages include a fluid inlet opening in the outer annular rim and a fluid outlet opening in the inner annular rim. The fluid inlet opening is configured to accept incoming air. The fluid outlet opening is configured to discharge filtered air.

Ventilation apparatus of internal combustion engine

A ventilation apparatus of an internal combustion engine of the invention ventilates a chain chamber by recirculating blow-by gas to an intake passage through a blow-by gas recirculation pipe and introducing air into the chain chamber through an air introduction pipe. The air introduction pipe is secured to a head cover wall portion which corresponds to a portion of a head cover wall which defines the chain chamber.

Oil-retaining mechanism, valve structure, and water outflow device

The present disclosure discloses an oil-retaining mechanism, a valve structure, and a water outflow device. The oil-retaining mechanism comprises a valve body, a valve shaft, and a sealing member. The valve body comprises a motion cavity. The valve shaft is disposed in the motion cavity and configured to move axially. The sealing member is disposed between a cavity wall of the motion cavity and the valve shaft. At least one of the cavity wall of the motion cavity, the sealing member, or a connection portion of the motion cavity, the sealing member, and the valve shaft extends inward to define an oil storage groove. The oil storage groove comprises an opening. An inner side of the opening stores lubricating oil. The opening cooperates with and contacts the outer circumferential surface of the valve shaft. When the valve shaft moves in the motion cavity, the lubricating oil lubricates the valve shaft.

Rotating electrical machine

A rotating electrical machine includes: an oil reception part that has an opening opposed to an injection hole designed to inject ATF into the atmospheric pressure inside a housing; and an oil reservoir that communicates with the oil reception part via a communicating hole provided in a wall part and communicates with a rotor cooling oil channel of a shaft via a cooling oil lead-in hole provided in the wall part. Since ATF having flowed out of the oil reception part flows along an inner face of the wall part of a second housing by gravity and reaches a bearing, one ATF supply route can be used both for cooling a rotor and lubricating a bearing, whereby the ATF supply route can be simplified.

CUP AND SEAL SYSTEM FOR TRAILER BRAKES
20230279992 · 2023-09-07 ·

A cup and seal system for trailer brake assemblies that can attach and fit inside a trailer brake at the base of an axle spindle that will catch and contain any leaked lubricants from a seal seepage or seal blowout failure. The accompanying seal is configured with the specs of an ordinary seal with an added extended lip that will fit inside the cup reservoir without friction resulting in a fail-safe system for trailers that are in-between bearing and brake maintenance services. Cups and Seals may be configured to fit different brake types and sizes, drum sizes, and spindle configurations to direct, catch and possibly expel any lubricant that would diminish the performance and/or stopping power of the trailer brake.

SUMP AUXILIARY VENT SYSTEM

A system includes an air chamber and an oil capture cavity. The air chamber includes an inlet to receive pressurized air from a gas turbine engine. The oil capture cavity is positioned between the air chamber and an oil sump supplying lubricating oil to the gas turbine engine. The oil capture cavity includes an auxiliary vent formed in a base of the oil capture cavity. A seal may separate the oil capture cavity from fluid communication with the oil sump. A nozzle provides fluid communication between the oil capture cavity and the air chamber. The nozzle is configured and positioned to direct a stream of the pressurized air into the oil capture cavity against an opposite wall of the oil capture cavity to create a quiescent zone at the base of the oil capture cavity. The quiescent zone includes the auxiliary vent.
