A turbine engine mechanical reduction gear, for example, of an aircraft, the reduction gear comprising: a sun gear having an axis of rotation; a ring gear which extends around the sun gear and which is configured to be immobile in rotation about the axis; planetary gears which are meshed with the sun gear and the ring gear and which are supported by a planetary carrier which is configured to be mobile in rotation about the axis; at least one lubrication oil distributor which comprises a stator portion immobile in rotation and a rotating integral rotor portion of the planetary carrier; and an annular oil deflector which is integral with the ring gear, wherein the stator portion of the distributor is integral with the deflector.

An outer-ring lubrication groove pattern formed in an outer-race raceway surface and an inner-race lubrication groove pattern formed in an inner-race raceway surface of a wave generator bearing of a strain wave gearing device are patterns in which linear lubrication grooves having very small widths and depths of several micrometers or less are arranged at fine pitches of several micrometers or less. The inner-race lubrication groove pattern includes a second groove pattern formed in long-axis-side inner-race raceway surface portions to hold the lubricant, and a first groove pattern formed in short-axis-side inner-race raceway surface portions to hold the lubricant and guide the lubricant to the second groove pattern. This configuration improves the contact state between balls and the inner-race and outer-race raceway surfaces of the wave generator bearing, thus reducing the coefficient of friction therebetween.
