DRIVE October 18, 2023
Source
An air starter (10, 110, 210) for starting a turbine engine (14) that includes a housing (30, 130, 230), a turbine member (42, 142, 242), a drive shaft (50, 150, 250), and at least one bearing assembly (64, 66, 164, 166, 264, 266). The housing (30, 130, 230) can define an interior (31, 131, 231) where the turbine (42, 142, 242) couples to the drive shaft (50, 150, 250) that is rotatably supported by the least one bearing assembly (64, 66, 164, 166, 264, 266). A lubricant passageway (82, 182, 282) can provide lubrication to the at least one bearing assembly (64, 66, 164, 166, 264, 266).
