MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617072583 A) filed by Flender Gmbh on June 11, 2026, for Lubricating Oil System For Pressurised Lubrication A Torque-Transmitting Coupling Of A Transmission.
Inventors include Haake, Norbert; and Theling, Julian.
The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: The invention relates to a lubricating oil system (26) for the pressurised lubrication of a torque-transmitting coupling (42) of a transmission having a fixed transmission housing (30), wherein the transmission housing (30) has a supply channel (28) for supplying a pressurised lubricating oil, a first transmission component (32) rotatable relative to the transmission housing (30), wherein the first transmission component (32) has a supply channel (38) in fluidic communication with the supply channel (28) via a gap seal (36) for receiving the lubricating oil supplied via the supply channel (28) and gap seal (36), and a second transmission component (44) coupled in a torque-transmitting manner to the first transmission component via the coupling (42), wherein the supply channel (38) is designed to guide the lubricating oil to the coupling (42), wherein the transmission housing (30) has at least one return flow channel (46) in fluidic communication with the gap seal (32) for gravity-driven discharge of the lubricating oil out of the gap seal (32). As a result of the return flow channel (46), damage caused by wearing particles is avoided and a long service life of a pressure-lubricated transmission is facilitated.
