A two-stroke engine comprises a first oiling system and a second oiling system. The first oiling system includes a low-pressure pump that distributes oil from a first oil tank to the two-stroke engine. The second oiling system includes a pump mechanically coupled to a crankshaft of the two-stroke engine, wherein the pump distributes oil from a second oil tank to an accessory at a pressure greater than the first oil pressure, wherein oil distributed to the accessory is returned to the second oil tank.

An assembly unit as a structural component for a lubricant pump, the assembly unit having a base plate, at least one pump element housing fixedly attached to the base plate with a pump element powered by a linear motion inserted therein, and further having an eccentric fixing to enable assembling an eccentric arrangement provided with a circumferential eccentric in a fixed relative position to the pump element inserted into the pump element housing.

A pump, wherein a first pressure space and a second pressure space are formed between an end-facing wall of an accommodating housing and a second housing part of a pump insert, wherein an annular sealing element which is arranged between the end-facing wall and the second housing part encloses the second pressure space and seals it off in relation to the first pressure space, wherein the first pressure space is connected via a first outlet channel to a first delivery chamber which is formed between a rotor and a stroke ring of the pump insert, and the second pressure space is connected via a second outlet channel to a second delivery chamber which is formed between the rotor and the stroke ring.

An adjustable lubrication oil conveying system for a combustion engine is proposed which comprises a screw pump for conveying lubrication oil with at least one screw rotatably accommodated in a screw chamber, wherein the screw pump is arranged such that a suction side of the screw chamber is connected with an intake path from an oil sump of the combustion engine, and a pressure side of the screw chamber is connected with a feed path to moving parts of the combustion engine. The lubrication oil conveying system is characterised in particular in that the screw pump is driven by the combustion engine; and towards the suction side of the screw chamber, an adjustable throttle valve is provided by means of which a flow cross-section of the intake path is gradually limitable between an opened position and a closed position. Therefore, the oil pressure in a combustion engine is, for the first time, adjusted by suction throttling in connection with a screw pump.

A variable oil pump includes a pump housing, an oil pump rotor accommodated in the pump housing, an adjustment member accommodated in the pump housing and configured to adjust a discharge amount of oil discharged from the oil pump rotor by displacing in a state where the adjustment member holds the oil pump rotor from an outer circumferential side in such a manner that the oil pump rotor is rotatable, and a guide portion including a guide hole provided at the adjustment member and a pin provided at the pump housing and engaging with the guide hole. The guide portion is configured to guide a displacement of the adjustment member relative to the pump housing by allowing the guide hole and the pin to engage with each other. The variable oil pump includes a drain passage configured to drain oil accumulated in the guide hole.

A method for controlling a continuously variable transmission is a control method for controlling in/out of oil to/from a primary oil chamber by using an oil pump provided in an oil passage between the primary oil chamber and a secondary oil chamber. The method for controlling the continuously variable transmission includes: a current command value calculation step of calculating a current command value for the oil pump in accordance with an operating state; a current limiting step of limiting the current command value to a lower-limit current at which belt slip does not occur when an oil pressure in the primary oil chamber falls below a lower-limit oil pressure in the primary oil chamber at which the belt slip does not occur; and a pump control step of driving the oil pump by using the current command value to control a piston position of the primary oil chamber.
