    Abstract: A gear reduction for a gas turbine engine comprises a carrier driven to rotate gears. The gears are supported by journal bearings. The carrier extends through a transfer bearing, which provides oil to passages within the carrier to supply oil to the gears and to the journal bearings. A device limits leakage oil from the transfer bearing to axial ends of the transfer bearing to a controlled amount. A gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A geared architecture for a gas turbine engine includes a fan shaft and a frame which supports said fan shaft. The frame defines a frame stiffness. A plurality of gears drives the fan shaft and includes a gear mesh that defines a gear mesh stiffness. A stiffness of a ring gear of the plurality of gears is less than about 20% of the gear mesh stiffness. A flexible support supports the geared architecture and defines a flexible support stiffness. An input coupling to the plurality of gears defines an input coupling stiffness. The flexible support stiffness and the input coupling stiffness are each less than about 11% of the frame stiffness.

    Abstract: A gearbox assembly for a gas turbofan engine includes a sun gear rotatable about an axis and a plurality of intermediate gears driven by the sun gear. A baffle disposed between at least two of the plurality of intermediate gears includes a first gap distance within a first gap portion and a second gap distance within a second gap portion. The first gap portion is disposed between the baffle and one of the intermediate gears away from the meshed interface with the sun gear and the second gap portion is disposed near the interface with the sun gear. The first gap distance within the first gap portion is different than the second gap distance within the second gap portion to define a desired lubricant flow path.
