A rotary electric machine system making part of a combined power system is equipped with a rotary electric machine having a rotor including a rotating shaft and a rotary electric machine housing in which the rotary electric machine is accommodated. In such a rotary electric machine, a first bearing and a second bearing are disposed between the rotary electric machine housing and the rotating shaft. The gas supplied from the gas supply source flows on an upstream side through a terminal casing in which electric terminal portions are accommodated, and on a downstream side through the first bearing and the second bearing inside the rotary electric machine housing.

A method of repairing a piston seal assembly comprises removing worn material from a piston seal groove to generate a worked seal groove, applying a groove buildup member to the worked seal groove, and disposing a seal member proximate the groove buildup member.

Device for distributing oil from a rolling bearing (8) for an aircraft turbine engine, comprising: - a rolling bearing (8), an oil distributor ring (5) and - an annular track (26) of a dynamic seal (22), characterised in that it further comprises a nut (16) screwed on to a thread (5d) of the distributor ring and bearing axially against an axial end of the inner ring so as to clamp it axially, and in that the annular track is configured to bear axially against the distributor ring and comprises rotating locking elements (27) engaging with the additional elements (28)of the nut.

An oil distribution system for a casing having at least one component to be supplied with oil in the interior of the casing, where the oil can be fed into the interior of the casing by at least one distribution device and where during operation the oil is conveyed by a centrifugal force to the at least one component, including at least one seal, in particular a contact seal or labyrinth seal for sealing off the casing from the environment, with the at least one seal being designed and/or arranged in the oil distribution system such that during operation it releases, due to the centrifugal force, at least one sealing gap for pressure equalization to provide a connection between the interior of the casing and the environment. Furthermore, the invention relates to an aircraft engine.

A gas turbine engine having a bearing housing with a housing cavity and a shaft rotating about a rotation axis. One or more bearings support the shaft. A housing supporting the bearing and defining a chamber axially adjacent to the bearing. A seal assembly is in the housing between the chamber and an exterior of the chamber. The seal assembly includes a seal supported by the housing and surrounding the shaft so as to define an annular gap between an inner surface of the seal and an outer surface associated to the shaft, the gap defining a part of a sealing path of the seal assembly for air to flow from said exterior into the chamber. An impeller rotates with the shaft and located radially inward of the gap relative to the rotation axis, the impeller oriented to drive oil toward the bearing.

An apparatus and method of reducing a flow of fluid and heat between a first space and a second space in a rotatable machine and an integral seal and heat shield device are provided. The device includes an annular flange configured to couple to the rotating member of the rotatable machine and a multi-walled seal shield member extending axially from the flange. The multi-walled seal shield member is formed integrally with the flange. The seal shield member includes a first wall including a plurality of surface features, a second wall spaced radially inwardly with respect to the first wall, and a cavity formed between the first and second walls. The integral seal and heat shield device also includes a cap end integrally formed and configured to seal the first and second walls. Each of the flange, the seal shield member, and the cap end are formed of a sintered metal.

A carbon seal assembly for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The carbon seal assembly includes a first carbon seal. The carbon seal assembly also includes a first carbon seal spring configured to provide force against the first carbon seal in a first axial direction, the first carbon seal spring having an annular shape and circumferentially disposed around a first shaft of the gas turbine engine.

A gas turbine engine includes a bearing compartment with a bottom disposed opposite a top. An outlet is formed in the bottom of the bearing compartment. A seal is positioned between the bottom of the bearing compartment and the top of the bearing compartment. A scavenge line is connected to the outlet. The scavenge line forms a fluid trap that extends in a first direction from the outlet and the bottom of the bearing compartment and then extends in a second direction to a position disposed vertically between the bottom of the bearing compartment and the seal.

The invention relates to a turbomachine for an aircraft, comprising: a first rotor comprising a first shaft, a second rotor comprising a second shaft, a mechanical reduction gearing having an epicyclic gear set comprising a sun gear connected to the second shaft, a ring gear connected to the first shaft, and planet gears located between the sun gear and the ring gear and borne by a planet carrier attached to a stator of the turbomachine, rolling element bearings for guiding said first shaft and second shaft in rotation, an annular gutter which extends around the ring gear of the reduction gearing and which is configured to recover oil for lubricating the reduction gearing that is sprayed by centrifugal action out from the ring gear during operation, and an annular bearing support which is attached, with the gutter, to a stator of the turbomachine and which supports at least one of said bearings, characterized in that it also comprises: at least one device for conveying oil recovered by said gutter, which device is borne by said annular support and extends as far as said at least one bearing in order to lubricate the latter.

A bearing compartment seal for a gas turbine engine includes a seal ring that defines an axis and has a radially inward facing sealing surface. A seal runner is configured to rotate relative to the seal ring. The seal runner has a runner surface facing the radially inward facing sealing surface. A plurality of grooves are spaced circumferentially along the runner surface. The plurality of grooves have a length in an axial direction that is at least 50% of an axial length of the runner surface.
