  • Arrangement for guiding lubricating oil in an internal-combustion engine
    Patent number: 5467843
    Abstract: An internal-combustion engine which has an intermediate shaft extending in parallel to the crankshaft, comprises a basin which is arranged between the shafts and which guides lubricating oil released by the crankshaft drive into an oil sump. This basin has struts which project downwardly away and which surround the intermediate shaft in such a manner that it is secured against the admission of lubricating oil of the crankshaft drive. As a result, this lubricating oil arrives in an oil tank in a largely unfoamed state.
