ABSTRACT:
In the transmission of a centrifugal compressor, where a gear is located adjacent to a lubricated bearing, a barrier is provided between the bearing and the gear to restrain the flow of oil to the gear and thereby reduce the pumping and windage losses that would otherwise occur. An oil port is made to communicate with the internal area of the barrier to thereby provide drainage of the accumulated oil to a sump.
