Abstract (en)
[origin: US4331112A] An arrangement for lubricating, especially for internal combustion engines is disclosed. The circuit of the arrangement is fed with the lubricating medium, e.g. oil, by means of a pump which delivers oil from a source, as required through an oil cooler and a filter, to bearings of the engine which require lubrication, and to more remote bearings, such as are used in auxiliary equipment, e.g. off-gas turbo-superchargers. In the main pressure conduit, relatively close to the pump, there is provided a flow control device with a direct conduit being provided to communicate the pump with the more remote bearings. The direct conduit is connected to the circuit between the pump and the flow control device. As required, an oil filter can be arranged in the direct conduit. The flow control device is controlled by the fluid pressure prevailing in front thereof to open and is spring biased to close, with a further conduit also connected to the circuit between the pump and the flow control device, communicating the pump and the flow control device.
