Abstract
An oiling device for an axle with spur gearing comprising a first rotating component which is surrounded by a housing and immersed in a lubricant. A first shaft is mounted to rotate by way of first and second bearings and is continuously connected to a third rotating component and a second rotating component that engages the first rotating component and is arranged above the surface of the lubricant. A fourth rotating component is continuously connected to a second shaft that is spaced from the first shaft. The lubricant is at least partially dispersed in the housing by rotation of the first rotating component. The second shaft and the first rotating component are arranged within the same housing and the lubricant that is dispersed by the first rotating component can be caught and selectively dispersed by at least one collecting channel.

12. An oiling device for an axle with spur gearing, the oiling device comprising:
-
a first rotating component (100) being surrounded by a housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605) and immersible in a lubricant, a first shaft (103, 407, 507) being rotatably mounted by a first bearing (104) and a second bearing (105), the first shaft being connected, in a rotationally fixed manner, to a second rotating component (102) and to a third rotating component (106, 406, 506), and the second rotating component (102) being arranged above a surface of the lubricant and engaging with the first rotating component (100), a fourth rotating component (107, 409, 509) being connected, in a rotationally fixed manner, to a second shaft (108, 408, 508) that is arranged in a spaced relationship from the first shaft (103, 407, 507), the lubricant being at least partially carried up by the first rotating component (100), and then thrown off by rotational movement of the first rotating component (100) and thereby dispersed within the housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605), the second shaft (108, 408, 508) and the first rotating component (100) being arranged in the housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605), and the lubricant, thrown off by the rotational movement of the first rotating component (100), being catchable by at least one collecting channel (113) and selectively dispersed. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. An oiling device in conjunction with an axle having spur gearing, the oiling device comprising:
-
a first rotating component (100) being surrounded by a housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605) and immersible in a lubricant, a first shaft (103, 407, 507) being rotatably mounted by a first bearing (104) and a second bearing (105), the first shaft being connected, in a rotationally fixed manner, to a third rotating component (106, 406, 506) and to a second rotating component (102), the second rotating component (102) being arranged above a surface of the lubricant and engaging with the first rotating component (100), a fourth rotating component (107, 409, 509) being connected, in a rotationally fixed manner, to a second shaft (108, 408, 508) spaced from the first shaft (103, 407, 507), the lubricant is at least partially carried up by the first rotating component (100) and thrown off, by rotational movement of the first rotating component (100), and dispersed within the housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605), the second shaft (108, 408, 508) and the first rotating component (100) being arranged within the housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605), and the lubricant thrown off by the rotational movement of the first rotating component (100) being catchable by at least one collecting channel (113) and selectively dispersed within the housing (101, 201, 301, 405, 505, 605).

23. An oiling device for an axle with spur gearing, the oiling device comprising:
-
a first rotating component being housed within a housing, the housing containing a lubricant which fills an interior of the housing up to a lubricant level, and the first rotating component being immersed in a lubricant; a first shaft being rotationally supported by first and second bearings, the first shaft being continuously connected to second and third rotating components; the second rotating component engaging with the first rotating component and the first shaft being supported such that the second rotating component being positioned above the lubricant level; a second shaft being rotationally supported, via third and fourth bearings, within the housing, and a fourth rotating component being continuously connected to the second shaft spaced away from the first shaft; a partition wall dividing an interior of the housing into first and second spaces such that the first and the second rotating components are located in the first space and the third and the fourth rotating components are located in the second space, the partition wall supporting the third bearing which rotationally supports the second shaft arranged in the first space, and the partition wall comprises a collecting channel which extends into the first space; and the first rotating component being located in the first space such that rotation of the first rotating component displaces lubricant within the first space, and the collecting channel being arranged such that displaced lubricant is collected via the collecting channel and flows toward the third bearing and through the third bearing from the first space into the second space.
