  • Patent number: 6273214
    Abstract: A gear arrangement (1) with a lubricant supply for driving agricultural equipment has a first gearbox (2) with a first casing portion (5) which limits a first interior space (6). A second gearbox (3) with a second casing portion (7), which limits a second interior space (8) is connected with said first gearbox (2). A connecting channel (27) connects the two gearboxes (2, 3) so that lubricant in the first interior space (6) flows into the second interior space (8). The gear arrangement (1) further includes a connection mechanism (33) to supply lubricant to the two gearboxes (2, 3). The connecting channel (27) is arranged such that the lubricant in the first gearbox (2) flows through the connecting channel (27) into the second gearbox (3) when the lubricant exceeds a minimum filling level (30). An air-venting unit (34) in the form of a channel is provided in the first gearbox (2).
