Deoiling device and turbomachine comprising this device
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a deoiling device. It comprises a tube ( 46 ), a first bearing ( 16 ) and a second bearing ( 18 ), the first and second bearings being placed in an oil chamber ( 20 ) in which an oil fog is maintained by rotation of the bearings. A deoiler ( 30 ) is provided in one wall of the oil chamber. The deoiler centrifuges oil in suspension in air and allows a deoiled air flow to pass inside the tube. The tube ( 46 ) comprises a closing cap ( 48 ) fitted with one or several outlet orifices ( 50 ) in its upper part designed to evacuate air, and an oil drain orifice ( 52 ) in its lower part.
