An example oil system is provided, including at least one oil chamber forming an oil sump, an oil reservoir, which is arranged separately from the oil chamber, and at least partially arranged at the same geodetic height as the oil chamber, and at least one fluid connection which connects the oil chamber to the oil reservoir. An electric shut-off unit may block the fluid connection of the oil chamber to the oil reservoir in a blocking state and at least partially release the same in a release state. In order to extend oil changing intervals, a number of regeneration operations and an estimate of an instantaneous degree of dilution of oil present in the oil chamber, may be used for activating the electric shut-off unit to connect or block the fluidic connection between the oil chamber and the oil reservoir.

A crankcase assembly for an engine is provided. The crankcase assembly includes a crankcase comprising a crank sump, the crank sump including a primary sump volume and a secondary sump volume, one or more crankcase oil catchers, the crankcase oil catchers comprising one or more surfaces configured to catch dispersed oil in the crankcase and direct the oil along the surfaces of the crankcase oil catcher away from a crankcase casing wall and towards the crank sump, wherein the crankcase oil catchers are provided above a crankshaft and below an associated piston of the engine, and one or more guides configured to collect oil captured by the crankcase oil catchers and guide the oil to the primary sump volume.

An engine assembly includes an oil pan having an oil pan body. The oil pan body includes an inner pan surface defining a cavity configured to collect oil and an outer pan surface opposite the inner pan surface. Further, the oil pan includes a dividing wall disposed within the cavity and coupled to the oil pan body. The dividing wall divides the cavity into a first compartment and a second compartment. The oil pan defines an opening extending through the dividing wall. A valve is disposed in the opening and can move between an open position and a closed position. When the valve is in the open position, the first compartment is in fluid communication with the second compartment. When the valve is in the closed position, the valve blocks fluid flow between the first compartment and the second compartment via the opening.

An oil pan structure (1) includes a lower structure (2) fixed to a lower portion of an engine block, a main oil pan (3) provided under an engine block with the lower structure being between the main oil pan and the engine block, a sub oil pan (5) that is provided in the main oil pan (3) and forms a first chamber (6) and a second chamber (7) inside the main oil pan (3). The sub oil pan (5) is separated into an upper body (5a) and a lower body (5b). The upper body (5a) is formed together with the lower structure (2) by injection molding.

A crankcase assembly for an engine is provided. The crankcase assembly includes a crankcase comprising a crank sump, the crank sump including a primary sump volume and a secondary sump volume, one or more crankcase oil catchers, the crankcase oil catchers comprising one or more surfaces configured to catch dispersed oil in the crankcase and direct the oil along the surfaces of the crankcase oil catcher away from a crankcase casing wall and towards the crank sump, wherein the crankcase oil catchers are provided above a crankshaft and below an associated piston of the engine, and one or more guides configured to collect oil captured by the crankcase oil catchers and guide the oil to the primary sump volume.

A fluid system for a motor vehicle drivetrain is provided including a housing including drain hole, a first fluid chamber for receiving fluid, and a second fluid chamber for receiving fluid, the drain hole coupled to the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber for draining fluid from both the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber. The fluid system further includes a stopper configured to prevent fluid from draining from the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber out of the drain hole in a first orientation of the stopper and configured to allow fluid to drain from the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber out of the drain hole in a second orientation of the stopper. The stopper is configured to isolate the first fluid chamber from the second fluid chamber in the first orientation of the stopper.

An oil tank for an aircraft turbomachine, including: a main enclosure capable of containing the oil, an oil inlet mixed with air, an oil outlet, an auxiliary enclosure arranged inside the main enclosure, including an enclosing wall, and two end walls adjacent to the enclosing wall, at least one of the two end walls including at least one oil passage with the interior of the main enclosure, at least one auxiliary inlet opening tangentially to the enclosing wall and passing through the main enclosure, an auxiliary outlet, tangential to a larger diameter section of the surrounding wall. The auxiliary outlet passes through the main enclosure for connection to the auxiliary circuit.
