WOOLSON, 015 DETROIT, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR TO PACKARD MOTOR CAR COM- PANY, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF MICHIGAN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE Continuation of application Serial No. 683,586, filed December 31, 1923.

This application is a continuation of or a substitute for application Serial No. 683,586, filed December 31,1923.
This invention relates to internal combustion engines, more particularly to the lubri cation apparatus thereof, and it has for one object to provide such lubrication apparatus having a. pressure feed system and a return system in which the circulation shall be continuously maintained.
Another object of the invention is to provide an internal combustion engine with an oil return system in whichthe return of the oil to the pressure system or to'storage, is accomplished by a single pump, regardless of the inclination of the engine to the horizontal.
A further object of the invention is to provide a simple and improved lubrication system in which the oil return pump shall be automatically connected, upon inclination of the engine, to that end of the oil pan in which the oil collects because of such inclination.
Other objects of the invention will appear fromthe following description taken inconnection with the drawing, which forms a part of this specification, and in which:
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section through part of an internal combustion engine equipped with the invention;
Fig.2 is a horizontal section to a larger scale, on the line 22 of Fig. 1;

, Fig. 4; is a view similar to Fig. 3 but showing the right end of the engine raised above the horizontal, and
Fig. 5 is a section to a larger scale, on the line 55 of Fig. 1. I
It is essential in the operation of internal combustion engines to maintain a continuous circulation of the lubricant. Particularly is this true of engines used in the propulsion of aircraft, and certain difficulties have been exintake. To meet this situation the so-called dry sump system has been evolved, in which a pressure unit provides the engine with oil under pressure,,this oil being collected and a returned to the pressure system by an independent return system. character heretofore devised has required a number of pumping elements, thus materially increasing the complication and-the liability H l to breakdown. The present invention provides lubrication apparatus of the greatest reliability and simplicity, in which only two pumps are necessitated, one for the pressure Apparatus of this system and one for thereturn system thereof.
Referring to the drawing, at 10 is illus trated an internal combustion engine having a crank shaft 11, journaled in bearings 12, and provided with the usual cranks 13. The
Mounted immediately below the pump 19 is a return pump 29, also preferably of the gear type, and driven from a continuation of the driving shaft 27. The pump 29 is enclosed in a suitable housing 31, which may be integral with the housing 21, and which defines a pressure chamber 32 and a suction chamber 33. The pressure chamber 32 communicates with a conduit 35 leading to the upper part of the tank 26. The suction chamber 33 is adapted to receive oil which has collected in the sump 15. For this purpose it is formed with a communicating housing, which may readily be integral therewith, and which forms a cylindrical valve chamber 37. The chamber 37 communicates with the suction chamber 33 by a narrow slot 38, disposed longitudinally in a wall separating the chambers, as clearly shown in Fig. 5. The cylindrical valve housing, best illustrated in Fig. 2, is provided at its opposite ends with ports 41 and 42. These ports are connected with suction pipes 44 and 43 respectively, preferably mounted in the sump 15justabove the bottom of the oil pan 16 and extending to the opposite ends of the sump. Each of the suction pipes is connected to the port disposed toward the other end of the sump from the end to which it extends. The suction ends of the pipes 43 and 44 may be provided with suitable strainers as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
The chamber 37 is provided with a ball 45, preferably a loose fit therein, which con stitutes a valve member adapted to co-operate with seats 46 and 47 formed at the entrances to the ports 41 and 42 respectively, which seats are preferably spherical in contour cor responding to the radius of the ball. It will be apparent that as the inclination of the engine, and consequently of the chamber 37 is varied from the horizontal in either direction, the'ball 45 will move under the influence of gravity toward one or the other of the seats 46 or 47. It will also be seen that this ball can close either of the ports 41 or 42, by co-operation with the corre sponding seat, but that it cannot close both of these ports at the same time, and that it cannot closethe passage to the chamber 33 formed by the slot 38.
The operation of this device will be readily understood. When the engine is in a horizontal position, as illustrated in Fig. 1, the ball 45 assumes a position midway between theseats 46 and47, and the pump 29 draws oil through both of the pipes 43 and 44, their respective ports 41 and 42 into the valve chamber 37, thence through the slot 38 into the suction chamber 33, and delivers it through the pressure chamber 32 and the pipe 35 into the tank 26. r
If the engine assumes an inclined position such as that illustrated in Fig. 3, with the left hand end elevated, the oil which collects in the sump 15 will flow, under the influence of gravity, toward the right hand end of the sump, leaving the suction end of the pipe 44 exposed. If it were not for the valve mechanism of this invention, the pump 29 would draw air through the path of lesser resistance provided by the intake pipe 44, substantially stopping the circulation of the oil. However, as the engine tilts the ball 45 moves by gravity toward the lower or right hand end of the valve chamber 37, and engages the seat 46, the shutting off communication with the passage 41 and the pipe 44. The pump 29 then draws oil through pipe 43, the end of which is submerged, through port 42 and chamber 37 into its suction chamber 33.
Similarly, if the left hand end of the engine is depressed, as illustrated in Fig. '4, the ball moves to the left and engages the seat 47, thus shuting off communication with' the passage 42 and the pipe 43. The pump 29 then draws oil through the pipe 44 from the lower end of the sump 15.
will be evident that the ball must be of sufiicient size and have sufiicient weight so head and the head caused by resistance to flow or friction in the various passages, the friction head being very small relatively to the lift head. Any material of sufficient density may be employed for this purpose, but it is preferred to use a metal such as bronze or steel, or the ball 45 may be made hollow and filled with a heavy material such as lead.
f course as the inclination of the engine to the horrizontal increases, the lift component of the suction head also increases, reaching a maximum when the engine is nosed up or down in a vertical position. As the suction head increases, however, that component of the weight of the ball which tends to hold it against the seat also increases, so
that when the engine is in a vertical position practically the entire weight of the ball is exerted to keep the valve closed.
It will also be appreciated that the pumps andthe valve mechanism may be located any 1 rection and degree of inclination of the engine to the horrizontal, thus insuring a continuous and uninterrupted circulation of Oll in the return system. It will be understood that the capacity of the pump 29 isadequate under all circumstances to keep the sump 15 pumped out and substantially empty of oil. Oil from the tank 26 is fed to the pump 19 and circulated thereby through the pressure system in the usual Way.
It will be understood that various forms of the invention other than those described above may be used without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is:
