Gear pump assembly
TLDR
In this article, the upper and lower plates of a gear train are mounted with radial ports through which oil collected in the recessed area flows to the bearing and working parts before returning to the sump.Abstract:
A gear train is housed in a gear box having upper and lower plates in or on which gear-shaft bearings are mounted. One of the gears functions as a centrifugal gear pump for projecting lubricating oil from a sump in the tank angularly upwardly through openings in the upper bearing-mounting plate to a deflecter plate located thereabove. This oil is deflected angularly downwardly and collected in a recessed area on the upper surface of the upper bearing-mounting plate. Bearing caps are provided with radial ports through which oil collected in the recessed area flows to the bearings and working parts before returning to the sump.read more

Oil scavening system for gas turbine engine
TL;DR: In this paper, a gas turbine engine intended for airborne applications in which several of the main bearings of the engine are contained in a bearing cavity and oil is scavenged from this cavity by allowing air from the high pressure region of a engine to leak into the cavity and then flow downwardly, together with entrained scavenge oil from the cavity, through an oversized cored passage housing a quill shaft driving the accessory gearbox for delivery to a crude separator at the bottom of the gearbox where the air is discharged to a low pressure region and the deaerated oil

Lubricant distribution system for scroll machine
TL;DR: An oil distribution system for lubricating bearings in a scroll compressor is described in this article, where an oil collector cup attached to the lower surface of a swing link is used to keep the oil in the collector when the compressor stops, so that it is available to lubricate adjacent bearing upon restart of the machine.
