Oil supply device

Abstract

A motor vehicle and an oil supply device for a chain drive of a combustion engine for the motor vehicle includes, but is not limited to an oil collection device for collecting leakage oil of a component in the combustion engine and a feed line connected to the oil collection device, via which the leakage oil collected in the oil collection device can be fed to the chain drive.

1 . An oil supply device for a chain drive of a combustion engine, comprising:
 an oil collection device adapted to collect leakage oil of a component in the combustion engine; and   a feed line connected to the oil collection device with which the leakage oil collected in the oil collection device can be fed to the chain drive.   
     
     
         2 . The oil supply device according to  claim 1 , wherein the oil collection device is a tub. 
     
     
         3 . The oil supply device according to  claim 1 , wherein the oil collection device is a beveled surface. 
     
     
         4 . The oil supply device according to  claim 1 , wherein the feed line is passed through an opening in a housing at least partially surrounding the chain drive. 
     
     
         5 . The oil supply device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a guide element adjoining the feed line adapted to provide a specific feeding of the leakage oil on to the chain drive, 
     
     
         6 . The oil supply device according to  claim 1 , wherein the feed line is a bore. 
     
     
         7 . A motor vehicle, comprising:
 a combustion engine;   a chain drive of the combustion engine; and   an oil supply device for the chain drive, comprising:
 an oil collection device adapted to collect leakage oil of a component in the combustion engine; and 
 a feed line connected to the oil collection device with which the leakage oil collected in the oil collection device can be fed to the chain drive. 
   
     
     
         8 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 7 , wherein the oil collection device is a tub. 
     
     
         9 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 7 , wherein the oil collection device is a beveled surface. 
     
     
         10 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 7 , wherein the feed line is passed through an opening in a housing at least partially surrounding the chain drive. 
     
     
         11 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 7 , further comprising a guide element adjoining the feed line adapted to provide a specific feeding of the leakage oil on to the chain drive, 
     
     
         12 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 7 , wherein the feed line is a bore.
