Abstract: A flow control valve includes at least one inlet unit configured to permit an inflow of a liquid into the flow control valve, and at least one outlet unit configured to permit an outflow of the liquid out of the flow control valve. The inlet unit is at least partially disposed on a radial outer surface of the flow control valve.

Abstract: A fluid supplying device comprises a reservoir configured to store a fluid and a conveying element disposed in or in fluid communication with a lower portion of the reservoir. The conveying element includes a rotatable shaft and a device configured to convey or move a fluid, e.g., a lubricant. A radial-piston pump having at least one radial-piston unit is in fluid communication with a fluid output of the conveying element. The pump comprises a shaft part rotatably coupled with the shaft of the conveying element. A motor drives both the conveying element and the pump. The motor, the conveying element shaft and the pump are sequentially arranged one after another in the axial direction of the shaft.
