Abstract

The invention relates to a turbine engine module comprising a rotating device ( 1 ) having a cover ( 5 ), said cover ( 5 ) comprising radial through ports ( 8 ) for the passage of the oil escaping by centrifugation and means ( 10 ) for guiding the oil leaving said ports ( 8 ) radially outwards, and a casing ( 2 ) defining at least one portion of a lubrication enclosure of said device ( 1 ), said casing ( 2 ) comprising at least one gutter ( 13 ), arranged to recover the oil, characterized in that the gutter ( 13 ) comprises an annular bottom wall ( 12 ) having at least one discharge port, and in that the casing ( 2 ) comprises at least one other port located on the outside of the gutter ( 13 ), said at least one other port and said at least one discharge port being connected to common discharge means.

Claims (7)

1. A turbine engine module comprising a device arranged so that the lubricating oil escapes therefrom by centrifugation about an axis of rotation, said device comprising at least one rotating portion and a cover rigidly connected to said rotating portion, said cover comprising radial through ports for the passage of the oil escaping by centrifugation and means for guiding the oil leaving said ports radially outwards, and a casing defining at least one portion of a lubrication enclosure of said device, said casing comprising at least one gutter, arranged to recover the oil passing through said radial ports and having a substantially annular shape centred on the axis of rotation, the gutter comprising an annular bottom wall having at least a first discharge port, wherein the casing comprises at least a second discharge port located on the outside of the gutter, and in that said device comprises discharge means, said at least second discharge port and said at least first discharge port being connected to the discharge means that are common

wherein at least one discharge port is located substantially at the lowest point of the gutter.

2. The turbine engine module extending according to claim 1 , in which the casing comprises a radially inner face defining a wall of the lubrication enclosure and forming the bottom wall of the gutter.

3. The turbine engine module according to claim 1 , in which the gutter comprises two annular side walls which advantageously move away from each other radially outwards.

4. The turbine engine module according to claim 1 , in which each radial port of the cover comprises a pipe, intended to form a means for guiding the oil.

5. The turbine engine module according to claim 4 , in which the pipes extend radially outwards from the cover and slope in the same transverse plane and in the same direction about the axis of rotation.

6. The turbine engine comprising a module according to claim 1 .
