4. Gearbox Section (Fig. 1)
_______________
A. The gearbox section changes the high turbine speed of the APU to a lower speed to turn the necessary components of the APU. The gearbox section is found at the forward end of the APU. The gearbox section has the accessory drive. The accessory drive has a gear train that is installed in a housing. The gear train is turned by a quill shaft. The quill shaft is connected to the shaft that turns the compressor impeller and turbine wheel. The gears in the gearbox section are lubricated by spray from the oil in the gearbox. For a more detailed description of the APU lubrication system, refer to AMM 49-91-00/001.
B. The gearbox section has the mounting pads for the fuel control unit, starter motor, cooling fan, tachometer generator, oil pump, and APU electrical generator. For a more detailed description of these components, refer to the following:
