When a strain wave gearing is used in an application for an operation of repeating startup/stopping, an outer-side lubrication portion and an inner-side lubrication portion, which are lubricated using different types of grease, remain in a communicating state without being divided using a seal member or the like. The outer-side lubrication portion is supplied with a much smaller amount of grease than the amount that would be required if used in an application such as a steady operation. Similarly, the inner-side lubrication portion is also supplied with a much smaller amount of grease than the amount that would be required if used in an application such as a steady operation. Essentially, the outer-side lubrication portion and the inner-side lubrication portion can be lubricated appropriately using different types of grease, without the grease becoming mixed.

A method for operating a powertrain, having at least one drive motor and at least one gearbox, of a motor vehicle which can be driven by the drive motor, via the gearbox, in which heat is transferred from the drive motor to the gearbox in a targeted manner, as a result of which the gearbox is heated in a targeted manner The heat is transferred from the drive motor to the gearbox in a targeted manner on the basis of predictive data which include at least one future state of the motor vehicle.

Device of the reduction gear or differential type for a turbine engine of an aircraft. A central sun gear and a row of planet gears, each of the planet gears are rotationally guided by at least one bearing extending around a tubular support. The tubular support includes an inner cavity for the reception of oil and through-orifices for the passage of oil of the tubular support to the at least one bearing. A member for circulating the oil is mounted in the cavity and includes at least one oil duct intended to be connected to an oil supply. The oil is intended to flow from the at least one duct into the inner cavity to form an oil film in contact with said tubular support, and to flow through the orifices.

A lubricant application device includes a base body configured to be mounted to an end surface of a gear. The base body includes a port configured to be connected to a source of lubricant and a holder for holding a lubricant applicator supported by the base body. A lubricant passage connects the port to the holder, and a lubricant applicator is mounted in the holder. The lubricant applicator is a coiled wire defining an internal passage for carrying the lubricant and may include a first length of coils with no axial spacing and a second length of coils that are axial spaced.

A robot includes a first member, a second member provided rotatably with respect to the first member, a gearing that transmits drive power from one side to the other side of the first member and the second member, the gearing includes an internal gear, an external gear having a flexible barrel portion in a tubular shape with an opening portion in an end part, and rotating about a rotation axis relative to the internal gear, and a wave generator, the wave generator includes a cam having a non-circular outer circumferential surface, and a bearing including an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of balls, the first member includes a counter body provided to face the end part on the opening portion side of the barrel portion, and a first seal member is provided between the outer ring and the counter body.

An axle assembly having a differential carrier that includes a bearing support wall that at least partially defines a first lubricant chamber. A rotor output flange that is fixedly coupled to a rotor may at least partially defines a second lubricant chamber. At least one seal may separate the first lubricant chamber from the second lubricant chamber.

A compact geared reduction unit for application with transmission shaft subjected to radial loads, comprising a box-like body inside which a gear system is accommodated for the transmission of rotary motion from a driving shaft to a transmission shaft, which is provided with an output reduction stage of the epicyclic type; the output reduction stage comprises a driving sun gear which rotates about a main axis and a ring gear which is integrally associated with the box-like body, between which multiple planet gears are engaged which are supported in rotation about respective longitudinal axes which are parallel to the main axis by a transmission planet carrier, which in turn rotates about the main axis and is associated so as to be integral in rotation with the transmission shaft at a connection region. The reduction unit furthermore provides for rolling means adapted to support radial loads associated with the transmission shaft.
