Abstract: A concentric cylinder drive assembly (1) used for the transmission of power in industrial machinery is disclosed. More specifically, a concentric drive assembly (1) with a hollow outer cylinder (5) having an internal surface with a bi-directional surface lay; an inner cylinder (3) having an external surface with a unidirectional surface lay oriented at a predetermined angle (?) along the length of the cylinder; an annular channel established between the outer and inner cylinders having a predetermined gap (7); and a lubrication oil that substantially fills the annular channel is presented.

Abstract: A vehicle hydraulic system includes a lube circuit, a pump supplying hydraulic fluid from sump to first and a second hydraulic control circuits and a filter circuit. The filter circuit includes a first outlet connected to the lube circuit, a sump line, and a second outlet connected to the pump. A suction filter is connected between the sump line and second outlet. A return filter is connected to the first control circuit outlet. A return line having an orifice is connected between the return filter and the first outlet. A backpressure valve has a member, an outlet connected to the second outlet, and an inlet and pilot line connected to the return filter outlet. A pressure sense line has one end connected to the return line between the orifice and the first outlet, and a second end connected to the member in opposition to the pilot line.
