Lubricant consumer system comprising at least one lubricant consumer, at least one rotating component, wherein fluid lubricant can be conveyed via the rotating component, and a lubricant distributor system, wherein the lubricant distributor system has at least two lubricant tanks, namely a first lubricant tank and at least one second lubricant tank, and a lubricant channel, wherein the two lubricant tanks are fluidically connected to one another and to the lubricant consumer via the lubricant channel, wherein one of the two lubricant tanks is designed and arranged in such a way that, in a horizontal position of the lubricant consumer system, it receives the fluid lubricant of the rotating component and supplies both the other lubricant tank and the lubricant consumer with lubricant via the lubricant channel, and wherein the other lubricant tank is designed and arranged in such a way that, in an inclined position of the lubricant consumer unit, the lubricant consumer is supplied with lubricant from at least the other lubricant tank.

An eccentric oscillating speed reducer includes an input rotor, a first rotor, a second rotor, a planetary rotor, a flow passage, a contact portion and a radial relief groove. The flow passage includes an axial gap located between the planetary rotor and a contact member. The flow passage conducts a lubricant oil that is forced to flow by a centrifugal force. The contact portion is placed in a drive force transmission path from the planetary rotor to the second rotor. The contact portion includes: a planetary rotor end surface of the planetary rotor located on a side where the second rotor is placed; and a second rotor end surface of the second rotor, which is opposed to the planetary rotor end surface. The radial relief groove forms a portion of the flow passage and extends through a radial width of the planetary rotor end surface.

A differential unit includes: a pinion gear shaft including a shaft portion and a gear portion; a ring gear meshing with the gear portion; a differential case that rotates with the ring gear; a differential gear mechanism accommodated in the differential case; a differential carrier having an accommodating space accommodating the differential case and the ring gear; and a pair of bearings supporting the pinion gear shaft such that the pinion gear shaft is rotatable with respect to the differential carrier. The differential carrier has an inner cylindrical portion, an outer cylindrical portion, and a connecting portion that are provided as a single member. The inner cylindrical portion has the pair of bearings fitted in the inner cylindrical portion. The outer cylindrical portion is provided radially outward of the inner cylindrical portion. The connecting portion connects the inner cylindrical portion and the outer cylindrical portion.

A transmission system for an electric vehicle. The system includes a gearbox containing gears and a lubricating fluid. A pump is provided for supplying and removing lubricating fluid from the gear box. The operation of the pump is controlled by a controller. A reservoir is provided for storing lubricating fluid. The controller is configured to control the pump so that a portion of the lubricating fluid is removed from the gear box when the vehicle is involved in a high acceleration event.

A limited oil displacement system is positioned within a tandem housing of a tandem of a work vehicle. The tandem includes a tandem oil where a chain assembly is at least partially submerged. The limited oil displacement system may include one or more oil displacement unit used for displacing the tandem oil. The oil displacement unit has an upper portion and a lower portion coupled to and positioned under the upper portion. A volume of the upper portion is larger than a volume of the lower portion such that when the tandem of the work vehicle pivots about a lateral axis, the oil displacement unit displaces the tandem oil more than when the tandem of the work vehicle remains horizontally.

A transmission for a motor vehicle includes a housing and a gear set. An oil drainage channel is formed by the housing and/or by an element connected to the housing and is arranged spatially underneath the gear set. The oil drainage channel includes at least one gear set-side inlet port, a closed underside, and an oil sump-side outlet port at one end of the oil drainage channel, which are designed and arranged in such that oil from the gear set enters the oil drainage channel through the at least one inlet port and is guided along the closed underside to the outlet port. A suction port of a hydraulic unit of the transmission is arranged in the oil sump spatially underneath the closed underside of the oil drainage channel and axially offset with respect to the outlet port.

A gas turbine engine includes an engine core, a power gearbox, and a lubrication system. The engine core is configured to drive rotation of at least one shaft. The power gearbox is configured to transfer torque from the at least one shaft to other parts of the gas turbine engine. The lubrication system is configured to deliver lubrication to the power gearbox to reduce friction and cool rotating components within the power gearbox.

An example of an emergency lubrication system for an aircraft includes a lubricant tank configured to supply a lubricant to a gearbox of the aircraft, a tube coupled between the lubricant tank and the gearbox and comprising a check ball disposed within the tube, a first lubricant line coupled to the tube and a first inlet of the gearbox, and a second lubricant line coupled to the tube and a second inlet of the gearbox.

A hybrid drive unit (HY, G) for a motor vehicle includes a housing (GG), in which a torque converter (TC) and an electric machine (EM) are accommodated. The electric machine (EM) and the torque converter (TC) are arranged directly next to each other such that the electric machine (EM) is arranged at a first face end (TC1) of the torque converter housing (TCG). An oil guide shell (LS) at least partially encompasses a section of the torque converter (TC). The oil guide shell (LS) has an L-shaped cross-section including a first section (LS1) and a second section (LS2) and is arranged in such that the first section (LS1) partially encompasses a second face end (TC2) of the torque converter housing (TCG) and the second section (LS2) partially encompasses a circumferential surface of the torque converter housing (TCG).

An automatic opening and closing device for a vehicle lubrication flow passage includes a valve housing installed on one side of an oil pump of the vehicle and includes a valve positioned in the valve housing and installed in a lubrication flow passage of the oil pump that passes through the inside of the valve housing. The valve is operated to open and close the lubrication flow passage by rotation. The device also has a mass member installed on one end of the valve to surround a rotation axis of the valve. The mass member is rotated by an inertial force generated during a turn or acceleration/deceleration of the vehicle to rotate the valve.
