Pump drive architecture for an automatic transmission
A transmission system has a housing including a wall and a gear support extending from the wall. The gear support has an outer surface and an inner surface defining a passage. The outer surface includes a seal receiving portion and a seal support axially spaced from the seal receiving portion. A seal is positioned about the gear support at the seal receiving portion. A sleeve is arranged on the outer surface of the gear support between the wall and the seal and a pump drive gear is mounted on the gear support and is supported by the sleeve. The pump drive gear includes an outer toothed surface, an inner surface, and a bushing arranged on the inner surface, the bushing extending about the sleeve.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR RACK AND PINION MAST
A lubrication system for a rack and pinion mast of a drilling rig includes a lubricating pinion positioned on a cart and in engagement with the rack. The lubricating pinion includes a plurality of lubrication dispensing ports formed on faces of the teeth of the pinion. The lubrication dispensing ports are fluidly coupled to lubrication ports formed in the lubricating pinion. The lubrication ports fluidly couple to an inner bore of the lubricating pinion. The inner bore may be fluidly coupled to a lubricant reservoir.
Vehicle with gear and hydraulic cooling system
A vehicle includes a frame, at least one traction device coupled to the frame for facilitating movement of the vehicle, an implement coupled to the frame and configured to perform a work operation, a gearbox, a hydraulic system having a hydraulic reservoir, and an oil cooling system configured to cool the gearbox and the hydraulic system. The oil cooling system includes first and second circuits for a cooling oil, and a crossover circuit. The first circuit includes the gearbox and a first oil-to-air cooler configured to cool the cooling oil from the gearbox. The second circuit includes the hydraulic reservoir and a second oil-to-air cooler for cooling the cooling oil from the hydraulic reservoir. The crossover circuit includes the gearbox and the hydraulic reservoir and is configured to exchange the cooling oil between the gearbox and the hydraulic reservoir to provide heat transfer between the first and second circuits.
Triple circuit lubrication device with increased reliability for a main power transmission gearbox of an aircraft
A triple circuit lubrication device for lubricating a mechanical system, the lubrication device being provided with two independent lubrication circuits, a tank common to both lubrication circuits and containing a lubrication liquid, and a tertiary circuit in which a tertiary liquid flows. Each lubrication circuit comprises pipes, and respective pressure sensors, pumps, heat exchangers, spray nozzles, and suction points for sucking up the lubrication liquid situated in the tank. The second suction point is situated below the high first suction point. The tertiary circuit comprises a third pump, a third pressure sensor, the second heat exchanger, and a third heat exchanger, thus serving to cool the lubrication liquid flowing through the second lubrication circuit.
Transmission of internal combustion engine
A transmission of an internal combustion engine in which the shaft length of a main shaft can be shortened to eliminate a supporting wall around a reduction gear while a thrust load is received. Around a main shaft of a transmission of an internal combustion engine, a primary bearing is fastened to an inside of a primary driven gear, and is disposed between the primary driven gear and the main shaft. A collar member is disposed between the primary bearing and a main bearing. A step portion, in contact with the main bearing, is formed on the main shaft on an opposite side of the main bearing from the collar member. A cylindrical portion, an inner race of the primary bearing, the collar member, and an inner race of the main bearing are fastened to the side of the step portion.
COOLING AND LUBRICATING SYSTEM OF SPEED-UP GEAR BOX OF WIND POWER UNIT AND LOW-TEMPERATURE STARTING METHOD THEREOF
A lubricant cooler, a cooling and lubricating system of a speed-up gear box, a wind power unit and a low-temperature starting method of the wind power unit. The lubricant cooler includes a radiating plate and a one-way valve arranged on a lubricant conveying pipeline, wherein the radiating plate and the one-way valve are arranged in parallel, and the one-way valve and/or the lubricant conveying pipeline in communication with the one-way valve are integrated on the radiating plate. The lubricant cooler can solve the problem that, when the wind power unit is started at a low temperature, the cooling and lubricating system of the speed-up gear box causes the shut-down of the wind power unit because the lubricant blocks the radiating plate.
