A bearing housing includes a hollow shell with opposite ends having coaxial openings for at least one bearing element at each end thereof. The shell between the openings has, when assembled in position for use, a bottom with a bottom surface, the bottom having an oil outlet and the bottom surface having an oil outlet opening. The cavity for impurities is arranged below the bottom surface of the shell, and the cavity is arranged in flow communication with the oil outlet and the oil outlet opening.

The present disclosure discloses an oil-lubrication mechanism for a fore bearing of a water-cooled electric motor and an electric-motor driving assembly, which solves the problems of conventional grease lubrication of the fore bearing of water-cooled electric motors such as serious bearing heat generation and bearing failure and low life caused by easy outflowing of the grease. The oil-lubrication mechanism includes a gear-splashing oil-storage structure provided in a gearbox or a reduction gearbox, and a bearing-baffle oil-storage structure provided at a front end of the water-cooled electric motor; and a gear in the gearbox or the reduction gearbox in operation throws a lubricating oil into the gear-splashing oil-storage structure, and the lubricating oil is delivered via the oil conduit into the bearing-baffle oil-storage structure, thereby lubricating the fore bearing of the water-cooled electric motor, and subsequently the lubricating oil flows back into the gearbox or the reduction gearbox via the oil return tube. In the present disclosure, the lubricating oil that splashes inside the gearbox or the reduction gearbox is introduced into the fore bearing of the water-cooled electric motor, which enables the fore bearing of the water-cooled electric motor to be lubricated by the oil, thereby reducing the heat generation of the fore bearing of the water-cooled electric motor, and improving the life of the fore bearing and the reliability of the electric motor.

A system includes a bearing, a lubricant line, a vessel and a sensor. The lubricant line is designed to introduce lubricant from a bearing gap of the bearing into the vessel. The sensor is designed to measure at least one physical variable of lubricant that is situated in the vessel. The vessel includes an outlet or overflow. The system includes a lubricant sump and a device for introducing lubricant from the sump into the bearing gap of the bearing.

A slewing bearing for vertical structural support, including a first bearing ring, a second bearing ring and at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the first and second bearing rings. The first or second bearing ring is provided with a gear for receiving the drive of an input torque, and the gear is provided axially thereunder with a lubricant collecting member for keeping the lubricant. A rotary support device is provided for supporting in a vertical structure. The device provides a first member that supports substantially in a vertical direction, a second member that is substantially supported by the first member in the vertical direction, and the slewing bearing acting as a rotary support between the first and second members. The first member is fixedly connected to the first bearing ring and the second member is fixedly connected to the second bearing ring.

A drive device includes a motor housing and a transmission housing fixed to one side in an axial direction of the motor housing that includes a first housing and a second housing fixed to another side in the axial direction of the first housing. The transmission housing includes a third housing fixed to the first housing and a fourth housing fixed to one side in the axial direction of the third housing. The first housing includes a first opposing wall axially opposing the transmission housing, and a bearing holding portion on the first opposing wall. The third housing includes a second opposing wall opposing the first opposing wall. The housing includes an oil supply path extending axially through the second opposing wall from the inside of the transmission housing. The oil supply path includes a supply port to supply oil to the bearing.

A gas turbine engine component includes a first member, a second member rotatable relative to the first member about an axis, and a seal assembly that includes a seal supported by the first member and a seal runner that rotates with the second member relative to the seal. The seal runner includes at least one internal passage to direct cooling fluid flow through the seal runner. A restriction is associated with the at least one internal passage to restrict flow through the at least one internal passage in response to an engine condition.

A bearing housing for a bearing having an outer race, the bearing housing comprising: an annular wall extending about an axis and axially between a first end and a second end, the annular wall including: a plurality of holes spaced circumferentially from one another and spaced axially from the first end, the plurality of holes extending through the annular wall toward the axis; and an interior housing surface extending about the axis and defining interior openings of the plurality of holes, the interior housing surface having a cylindrical portion defining a seat for radial engagement with the outer race, the cylindrical portion extending axially from a first location proximate to the first end to at least a second location between the first location and the interior openings.

A bearing compartment of a gas turbine engine includes a rotationally fixed structure defined about an engine longitudinal axis; a gutter section formed in the front support; an oil drainback assembly mountable to the gutter section to direct oil into a drain passage to communicate oil from the gutter.

Provided is a bearing structure, including: a damper groove formed in at least one of an outer peripheral surface of an outer ring of a rolling bearing or an inner peripheral surface of a bearing hole so as to extend in a circumferential direction of a shaft; and a second oil drain hole having one end communicating with the damper groove, and another end opened to an outside of a cylindrical portion.

A gas turbine engine component includes a first member, a second member rotatable relative to the first member about an axis, and a seal assembly that includes a seal supported by the first member and a seal runner that rotates with the second member relative to the seal. The seal runner includes at least one internal passage to direct cooling fluid flow through the seal runner. A restriction is associated with the at least one internal passage to restrict flow through the at least one internal passage in response to an engine condition.
