The present invention relates to a device (100) for supplying fluid to an electric drive train for a motor vehicle, preferably for cooling and lubricating a transmission (50) and/or for supplying oil to an electric motor of the electric drive train. The device (100) comprises a main pump (10) configured as a hydraulic fixed displacement pump for delivering fluid from a fluid reservoir (40) to the electric drive train. The apparatus (100) further comprises at least one auxiliary pump (20) configured as a hydraulic fixed displacement pump. The main pump (10) and the auxiliary pump (20) are mechanically driven by the transmission (50) of the electric drive train in such a way that a fixed transmission ratio exists between a pumping rotation speed of the main pump (10) and a pumping rotation speed of the auxiliary pump (20), wherein the auxiliary pump (20) can be selectively connected by means of a controllable actuating device (30) for supplying fluid to the electric drive train.

A fluid delivery system for supplying fluid to at least one machine assembly, in particular an engine and/or transmission of a motor vehicle, including: a first pump and a second pump; a drive for driving the first pump and/or the second pump; a reservoir for storing the fluid; and a filter module for filtering the fluid, wherein the first pump delivers fluid from the reservoir to the machine assembly in a supply flow and the second pump is arranged downstream of the machine assembly and delivers at least some of the fluid into the reservoir in a sub-flow downstream of the machine assembly and the filter module is embodied in the sub-flow.

A fluid delivery system for supplying fluid to a machine assembly includes: a pump module; a drive for the pump module; and a housing which includes a reservoir for the fluid. The reservoir includes an aspiration point, and the pump module includes a first inlet, a second inlet, a first outlet and a second outlet. The first inlet is fluidically connected to the reservoir via a first suction conduit, and the first outlet is fluidically connected to the machine assembly via a first pressure conduit. The second inlet is fluidically connected to the housing via a second suction conduit, and the second outlet is fluidically connected to the reservoir via a second pressure conduit.

A system. The system includes a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a first port, a second port fluidically couplable with the first port upon application of negative pressure at the first port, a third port fluidically couplable with the first port upon application of positive pressure at the first port, and a first check valve positioned between the first port and the second port. The system also includes a second check valve fluidically couplable with the third port upon the application of the positive pressure at the first port. The second check valve is positioned external to the valve assembly.

An oil structure of an internal combustion engine includes a main oil pump configured to suck lubricating oil stored in a crankcase and feed the lubricating oil to respective engine parts and a scavenge pump configured to recover the lubricating oil from any lubricated engine part and return the lubricating oil into the crankcase. The scavenge pump has: an oil suction passage extending from the lubricated engine part to a suction side of the scavenge pump; and an air introduction passage for negative pressure control connected to the oil suction passage. An air introduction port of the air introduction passage is open to the inside of the crankcase and is set to a height position such that, when a level of the lubricating oil in the crankcase is inclined, the lubricating oil flows in from the air introduction port and returns from the scavenge pump into the crankcase.

A disclosed lubrication system for a turbofan engine includes a pump for driving lubricant through a lubrication circuit, at least one sensor generating a signal indicative of an engine operating condition and at least one valve for controlling a flow of lubricant through the lubrication circuit. A controller controls operation of the valve to vary the flow of lubricant based on the engine operating condition to maintain lubricant flow within predefined operating limits.
