  • Patent number: 10273826
    Abstract: The invention relates to a lubrication device for a turbine engine, comprising an oil intake pipe (23) provided with a pump (24) for supplying oil and control means (30) located downstream from the supply pump (24), a supply pipe (26) intended for supplying oil to a member to be lubricated and a recirculation pipe (27) connected upstream from the supply pump (24), the control means (30) making it possible to direct all or part of the flow of oil from the intake pipe (23) towards the supply pipe (26) and/or towards the recirculation pipe (27).

  • Publication number: 20170022906
    Abstract: A supply system for supplying fluid to a turbomachine including a fluid tank, a downstream portion located downstream from the tank, and a cutoff valve located between the tank and the downstream portion. The cutoff valve is configured to be at least partially open when a rotational speed of a shaft of the turbomachine is higher than a first threshold and in the absence of a fire detected in the turbomachine. The cutoff valve is closed when the two following conditions are satisfied: the rotational speed of the shaft is higher than the first threshold, and the rotational speed of the shaft was lower than the first threshold when a fire was detected in the turbomachine during the flight.

  • Patent number: 9347335
    Abstract: The tank for a turbine engine comprises a partition separating a first compartment from a second compartment of the tank , the partition having a first end and a second end, the second end being closer to the bottom of the tank than the first end, the partition being inclined from the first end to the second end in the first direction and in the direction of the first outlet to the second outlet , the partition comprising at least one first Through-hole near the first end and at least one second through-hole closer to the second end than the first hole.
