Fluid delivery system for rotational equipment

An assembly is provided for rotational equipment. This assembly includes a first component, a static structure, a guide rail and a second component. The static structure includes a static structure fluid passage. The guide rail is mounted to the static structure. The guide rail includes a guide rail fluid passage and a nozzle. The guide rail fluid passage fluidly couples the static structure fluid passage to a nozzle orifice of the nozzle. The nozzle is configured to direct fluid onto the first component through the nozzle orifice. The second component is mated with and configured to translate along the guide rail.

MULTI-STAGE COMPRESSOR HAVING INTERSTAGE LUBRICANT INJECTION VIA AN INJECTION ROD
20220120278 · 2022-04-21 ·

A compressor is disclosed which can include a first stage and a second stage. In one form the compressor includes contact cooled compressor stages. The compressor can include a rod useful to inject a lubricant for purposes of cooling/lubricating/sealing the rotating components of the compressor. In one form the rod is an elongate rod with openings which permit a lubricant such as oil to be injected. The injected oil can be atomized via the openings. The rod can be positioned in the interstage space between the first and second stages, and can include a variety of openings.

Modular digital filter, regulator and lubricator connector and system

A modular digital filter, regulator and lubricator (FRL) connector and system are provided. The modular digital filter, regulator and lubricator connector and system are especially suitable for use in improving compressed air quality so as to extend the life of tools and machines which are connected to the FRL devices. The connector device and system allows for a quick and efficient connection with respect to both electronics and air lines and reduces problems that arise from wire pig-tailing or accidental disconnection of the FRL. The device and system may have digital, visual and audible warnings with respect to the quality of air passing through the system and to the tools and machines.

Planetary gear system arrangement with auxiliary oil system

A gas turbine engine includes a fan shaft diving a fan having fan blades. A gear system includes a sun gear surrounded by a plurality of intermediate gears. A carrier at least partially supports the plurality of intermediate gears. A ring gear surrounds the plurality of intermediate gears. The sun gear is driven by a turbine. At least one fan shaft support bearing is located forward of the gear system. A coupling fixes the ring gear from rotation relative to an engine static structure. A lubrication system lubricates components across a rotation gap. The lubrication system includes a lubricant input. A stationary first bearing receives lubricant from the lubricant input and has a first race in which lubricant flows. A second bearing rotates within the first bearing. The second bearing has a first opening in registration with the first race such that lubricant may flow from the first race through the first opening into a first conduit.
