    摘要: A friction of a planetary gearbox, having first and second rotatably connected components. Oil adjacent an oil feed pocket of the first component is directed into a bearing clearance. The oil is directed into the pocket by a line that opens into the pocket. An oil supply unit supplies oil to the bearing clearance at a defined pressure. A ratio between the pulse, via which the oil is directed into the bearing clearance and which corresponds to the product of the square of the inflow rate of the oil into the clearance and the oil density, and the pulse of the oil which adheres to the internal side of the second component 5*10−3. The pulse of the oil adhering to the second component is equal to the product of the square of the velocity of the oil adhering to the second component and the oil density.

    摘要: A planetary gearbox for a gas turbine engine has a planet gear rotatably mounted on a carrier element, which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a planet carrier. An oil feed pocket is in a region of an external side of the carrier element, via which oil is passed into a bearing gap between the carrier element and the planet gear. The carrier element has a duct carrying oil. The duct in is provided radially within an external side of the carrier element, having a cross section which is closed in relation to the bearing gap. The duct in the flow direction of the oil has at least two sequential duct portions. The flow cross section of the duct in a transition region between an upstream duct portion and a next downstream duct portion decreases in an at least approximately step-shaped manner.

    摘要: A plain bearing of a planetary gearbox has first and second rotationally connected components. Oil adjacent an oil feed pocket of the first component is directed into the bearing clearance between the components by a first line that opens into the pocket. The line includes a first portion and a downstream second portion. The flow cross section of the first portion is smaller than the flow cross section of the second portion. The flow cross section for the oil, in the feed direction, in the circumferential direction of the clearance and in the main rotation direction of the second component relative to the first component increases more than counter to the main rotation direction of the second component, or in the circumferential direction of the clearance and counter to the main rotation direction of the second component increases more than in the main rotation direction of the second component.
