Lubricant oil circuit for IC engines has dosing unit, acting as adjusting member in refill pipe, to refill set part volumes of lubricant oil

摘要

The circuit has a refill pipe (3) with adjusting member, which is controlled dependent upon the lubricant volume in the circuit (5). The member is a dosing unit (7) to refill set part volumes of lubricant oil (9), and is at least partially located inside the refill container (2). The dosing unit has a stationary control wall and a dosing actuator, which is moved relative to the wall to determine which one of several extraction points is used.
