A tappet roller assembly in which a roller shoe has a roller bore shaped to receive and retain a roller. The roller is sized and configured to rotate within the roller bore. The roller shoe may have a lubricating passage extending from a peripheral surface of the roller shoe to the roller bore to lubricate the roller.

Embodiments of a cold start lubricant distribution system include a lubricant distribution circuit, which fluidly interconnects first and second actively-lubricated work vehicle assemblies onboard a work vehicle. A flow divider section is included in the lubricant distribution circuit and through which lubricant flow is apportioned between the first and second actively-lubricated work vehicle assemblies. A lubricant supply pump is further located in the lubricant distribution circuit upstream of the flow divider section. The cold start lubricant distribution system further includes a lubricant flow modification assembly operably in a cold start mode. When operating in the cold start mode, the lubricant flow modification assembly reduces a volume of lubricant flow supplied to the first actively-lubricated work vehicle assembly through the flow divider section relative to a volume of lubricant flow supplied to the second actively-lubricated work vehicle assembly through the flow divider section.

Methods, systems, and vehicles that control the temperature of a device included in the vehicle are presented herein. The temperature of the device is controlled by ventilating the device with drivetrain air, such as transmission cooling air. In some embodiments, the device is at a greater temperature than the drivetrain air, which cools the device. In other embodiments, the device is at a lesser temperature than the drivetrain air, which heats the device. The drivetrain air is provided to the device through an exhaust duct coupled to the vehicle's transmission. The drivetrain exhaust air is preferably circulated by the transmission. The transmission may be a continuously variable transmission. The device may be an oxygen sensor that is coupled to an engine exhaust pipe. The oxygen sensor is thermally coupled to the engine exhaust and the engine exhaust pipe, which are at greater temperatures than the transmission exhaust air.

A transmission includes a housing, a plurality of components, and a cooling system. The housing has a plurality of walls that cooperate to define an interior space and a sump configured to store lubricating fluid in use of the transmission. The plurality of components are arranged in the interior space and configured to cooperatively transmit rotational power between an input shaft and an output shaft of the transmission to reduce a rotational speed of the output shaft relative to a rotational speed of the input shaft in use of the transmission. At least one of the plurality of components is supplied with lubricating fluid stored by the sump in use of the transmission. The cooling system is supported by the housing.

A vehicle includes a frame, at least one traction device coupled to the frame for facilitating movement of the vehicle, an implement coupled to the frame and configured to perform a work operation, a gearbox, a hydraulic system having a hydraulic reservoir, and an oil cooling system configured to cool the gearbox and the hydraulic system. The oil cooling system includes first and second circuits for a cooling oil, and a crossover circuit. The first circuit includes the gearbox and a first oil-to-air cooler configured to cool the cooling oil from the gearbox. The second circuit includes the hydraulic reservoir and a second oil-to-air cooler for cooling the cooling oil from the hydraulic reservoir. The crossover circuit includes the gearbox and the hydraulic reservoir and is configured to exchange the cooling oil between the gearbox and the hydraulic reservoir to provide heat transfer between the first and second circuits.
