CRAWLER-TYPE WORK MACHINE
The bulldozer has a right first oil channel, a right second oil channel, and a right third oil channel. The right first oil channel guides a portion of the lubricating oil discharged by a hydraulic pump to a right steering brake. The right second first oil channel guides a portion of the lubricating oil discharged by the hydraulic pump to a right planetary gear mechanism. The right third oil channel guides at least a portion of the lubricating oil that has passed through the right planetary gear mechanism to a right steering brake. At least a portion of the planetary gear mechanism is disposed further inside than the right steering brake in a radial direction perpendicular to the center axis of an input shaft.
STRAIN WAVE GEARING
An internal contact part of a wave generator of a strain wave gearing, a contact part between an externally toothed gear and the wave generator, and tooth surface parts are lubricated by a lubricating fine powder. When the strain wave gearing is in operation, the lubricating fine powder is supplied to the internal contact part and the contact part by a first powder guide that rotates integrally with the wave generator. Having passed through these sections, the lubricating fine powder is supplied to the tooth surface parts by a second powder guide that rotates integrally with the wave generator. Each component part can be reliably lubricated regardless of the orientation of the strain wave gearing during operation.
SPEED REDUCER AND ACTUATOR
A speed reducer includes a sun gear, planetary gears, a fixed part, an output part, a first bearing, and a second bearing. The sun gear rotates relative to the fixed part at a first rotation speed. The planetary gears are disposed around the sun gear to engage with the sun gear. The output part includes an annular internal gear engaging with the planetary gears. The output part rotates relative to the fixed part at a second rotation speed lower than the first rotation speed. The first bearing is interposed between the fixed part and the output part at a position closer to an input side with respect to the planetary gears. The second bearing is interposed between the fixed part and the output part at a position closer to an output side with respect to the planetary gears. The second bearing is smaller in radial size than the first bearing.
Oil collector for a torque transmission device of an aircraft turbine engine
An oil collector for a torque transmission device of an aircraft turbine engine, this oil collector being configured to collect sprayed oil, wherein it includes at least one wall formed at least in part by a mesh structure, and at least one recovery device located at one end of the wall and configured to recover the oil captured by the wall and intended to flow from this wall to the recovery device.
FRICTIONAL ROLLER REDUCER
A frictional roller reducer having a sun roller; a ring roller; a plurality of intermediate rollers having rolling surfaces coming in rolling contact with the sun roller and the ring roller; the sun roller or the ring roller having a pair of roller elements including inclined surface portions on a circumferential surface coming in rolling with rolling surfaces, the inclined surface portions inclined in directions going toward the intermediate rollers in a radial direction as going away from each other in the axial direction; a pressing device pressing the pair of roller elements in directions going closer to each other, and an elastic member arranged between the pair of roller elements, the elastic member urging the pair of roller elements in directions going away from the rolling surface of the intermediate rollers.
PLANETARY GEARBOX FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE, AND GAS TURBINE ENGINE
A planetary gearbox for a gas turbine engine has a planet gear rotatably mounted on a carrier element, which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a planet carrier. An oil feed pocket is in a region of an external side of the carrier element, via which oil is passed into a bearing gap between the carrier element and the planet gear. The carrier element has a duct carrying oil. The duct in is provided radially within an external side of the carrier element, having a cross section which is closed in relation to the bearing gap. The duct in the flow direction of the oil has at least two sequential duct portions. The flow cross section of the duct in a transition region between an upstream duct portion and a next downstream duct portion decreases in an at least approximately step-shaped manner.
Epicyclic gear train
A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a propulsor section including a propulsor supported on a propulsor shaft, a turbine section including a turbine shaft, a compressor section, and an epicyclic gear train interconnecting the propulsor shaft and the turbine shaft. The 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 intermeshing with the intermediate gears. The first and second portions have axially opposed faces abutting one another at a radial interface. The first and second portions have grooves at the radial interface that form a hole that expels oil through the ring gear.
STRAIN WAVE GEARING DEVICE
A strain wave gearing device has a grease temperature control mechanism for controlling the grease temperature of a portion of grease, of the grease filled inside an externally toothed gear of the strain wave gearing device, the portion of the grease being disposed on the outer peripheral side portion of a wave generator. The grease temperature control mechanism has a circular heater facing the outer peripheral side portion of the wave generator over the entire circumference from a direction of a device central axis line. By controlling the grease temperature of a specified portion inside the externally toothed gear, it is possible to reliably start the strain wave gearing device even in an extremely low temperature environment where the grease solidifies.
Electric drive unit and drive axle system
An electric drive unit and a drive axle system having an electric drive unit. The drive axle system also includes a drive shaft and an axle assembly that that is remotely positioned from the electric drive unit. The drive shaft operatively connects the electric drive unit to the axle assembly.
Planetary gear train for a wind power plant and method
A planetary gear train for a wind power plant includes a planetary stage rotating in a gear train housing, a spur gear stage downstream of the planetary stage, a sun wheel shaft which is non-rotatably connected to a sun wheel of the planetary gear stage, and a hollow shaft which is coaxially surrounded by a spur gear of the spur gear stage and is non-rotatably connected to the spur gear. The sun wheel shaft and the hollow shaft are non-rotatably connected to each other by a toothed coupling, with an outer toothing of the sun wheel shaft meshing with an inner toothing of the hollow shaft. The planetary gear train includes oil-guide ducts which produce a connection between an oil inlet connected to the gear train housing, on the one hand, and the toothed coupling and the axial contact surface, on the other hand.
