A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a fan section including a turbo fan supported on a turbo fan shaft, a turbine section including a turbine shaft, and an epicyclic gear train interconnecting the turbo fan shaft and the turbine shaft. The epicyclic gear train includes a sun gear coupled to the turbine shaft, intermediary gears arranged circumferentially about and meshing with the sun gear, a carrier supporting the intermediary gears, and a ring gear including first and second portions each having an inner periphery with teeth, the first and second portions arranged about and intermeshing with the intermediate gears, the first and second portions abutting one another at a radial interface, the first and second portions including respective flanges extending along the radial interface radially outward from the teeth, and the teeth of the first and second portions being oppositely angled teeth.

An epicyclic gear train for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a gutter having an annular channel, a sun gear rotatable about an axis, intermediary gears arranged circumferentially about and meshing with the sun gear, a carrier supporting the intermediary gears, and a ring gear arranged about and intermeshing with the intermediary gears, the ring gear having an aperture axially aligned with the annular channel. The ring gear includes axially spaced apart walls that extend radially outward to define a passageway, and the passageway is arranged radially between the aperture and the annular channel such that the walls inhibit an axial flow of an oil passing from the aperture toward the annular channel.

A gearbox comprising a gearbox housing at least partially surrounding a cavity, an oil sump connected to the gearbox housing and surrounding another cavity, and a separating element separating the cavity from the other cavity and having a passage through which oil located in the cavity is fed into the other cavity. The passage is arranged in a plane at an intersection line between a first oil level upper side and a second oil level upper side. The oil is fed from the cavity into the other cavity exclusively through the passage. The separating element has a passage section and a separating section, the passage section protrudes from the separating section in the radial direction.

The invention relates to a lubricating device for controlling lubrication in a stepped transmission comprising a splitter section (10, 20) with an input shaft (I) and a main gear section (30, 40, 50, 60) with an output shaft (O) and a countershaft (C); where the splitter section (10, 20) comprises a first splitter gear set (10) connectable to the input shaft (I) by a first gear shift mechanism (23); and a second splitter gear set (20) connectable to the input shaft (I) by the first gear shift mechanism (23); and connectable to the output shaft (O) by a second gear shift mechanism (33). A lubrication arrangement for the second splitter gear set (20) is arranged to be controlled by the current positions of the first and the second gear shift mechanisms (23, 33); wherein the lubrication arrangement is controlled to at least reduce lubrication when the first and the second gear shift mechanisms (23, 33) are simultaneously connected to or disconnected from the second splitter gear set (20).

A method of retrofitting a gear box assembly with an emergency lubrication system includes removing plugs from visual inspection ports of a gearbox housing, removing a breather from a breather port of the gearbox housing, and installing jet plugs into the respective visual inspection ports and breather port, wherein each jet plug includes a respective jet tube.

An assembly for dispersing a lubricant upon a long stroke oil well rig's chain coupling roller trolley, the assembly incorporating a track frame receiving the roller trolley for leftward and rightward rolling motions; at least a first dip bucket fixedly attached to a lower end of the track frame; a front nozzle connected operatively to the at least first dip bucket for rearwardly emitting portions of the lubricant; an underlying lubricant well adapted for receiving and filling the at least first dip bucket; a rear conduit positioned for collecting the rearwardly emitted portions of the lubricant; a collection pocket underlying the rear conduit; a rear nozzle connected operatively to the collection pocket for forwardly emitting the portions of the lubricant toward the roller trolley.
