An apparatus for sealing a portion of a rotating component within an oil sump environment including an at least two piece assembly having complementary peripheral joining edges for shielding a portion of the rotating component from the oil sump environment. A sealing material or device is disposed between the complementary peripheral joining edges of the at least two piece assembly for enhancing the prevention lubricant flow into the sealed environment.

A lubricating apparatus for a differential device of vehicle may include a ring gear mounted in the inside of a housing mounted at an oil pan, the ring gear being provided such that at least a portion of a lower portion of the ring gear is submerged into oil to churn the oil by being rotated; and a gear casing including a partition wall which is provided to surround an outer peripheral surface of the ring gear and allows the oil to flow into between the partition wall itself and the ring gear and a restriction part which is located in a front of the ring gear and formed with a top end portion facing an upper portion of the housing to limit an amount of the oil flowing into between the partition wall and the ring gear.

A reservoir plate for dividing an inside of a transmission case into a differential chamber and a hydraulic oil storage chamber includes: a cylindrical portion covering a part of a differential gear; a flange portion radially extending from the cylindrical portion; and a differential ring surrounding portion extending from an outer circumferential edge of the flange portion so that a part of a differential ring gear is covered from above without interfering with a drive pinion gear. The cylindrical portion, the flange portion, and the differential ring surrounding portion are integrally formed with each other. A seal member is interposed between the transmission case and the outer circumferential edge of the flange portion at least in the range below the differential ring surrounding portion.

A power transmission device that includes a differential ring gear that meshes with a drive pinion gear to which power from a transmission is transmitted; a differential gear including a differential case coupled to the differential ring gear; a case that houses the differential ring gear and the differential gear; and a resinous partition that partitions an inside of the case into a differential chamber where the differential ring gear and the differential gear are placed and a working oil reservoir chamber to reserve working oil, wherein the partition includes a magnetic plate fixed to a lower part of a side surface thereof that faces the working oil reservoir chamber, and a magnet magnetically attracted and attached to the magnetic plate.

A transmission has a float level sensor in a fluid sump of the transmission case. A shield having a first panel and a second panel connected to and generally perpendicular with the first panel. The first panel cooperates with a first wall of the transmission case in the sump. The second panel cooperates with a second wall and a bottom wall of the transmission case in the sump. The first and second panels are adapted to cooperate with the first wall, the second wall, and the bottom wall of the transmission case to form a generally stagnant well within the fluid sump surrounding the fluid level sensor to decrease fluid motion adjacent to the sensor. The generally stagnant well and the sump are in fluid communication with one another.

There is provided a work vehicle including a partition wall to keep partition between a first space zone as part of an internal space of the transmission case in which a differential mechanism is located and a second space zone as part of the internal space which is adjacent to the first space zone. An upper space is disposed above the partition wall and configured to allow lubricating oil scooped up from the first space zone by a ring gear to flow in the second space zone. A flow-out path is disposed below the upper space and configured to allow the lubricating oil to flow out of the second space zone to the first space zone.

There is provided a work vehicle including an oil outlet port and a partition part. The oil outlet port opens to a bottom portion in one end side of a transmission case in a vehicle body front-back direction and a vehicle body left-right direction. The oil outlet port takes out a lubricating oil from an interior of the transmission case. The partition part divided an internal space of the transmission case into a first space zone along a sidewall portion of the transmission case, and a second space zone other than the first space zone. The partition part brings the first space zone into a sealed state.

A vehicle drive transfer apparatus including a planetary gear mechanism including a carrier for supporting a sun gear, a ring gear, and a plurality of pinion gears through pinion shafts and pinion bearings, wherein an in-shaft oil passage is provided in each of the pinion shafts to supply lubricating oil to each of the pinion bearings; and an oil receiver attached to the carrier to receive lubricating oil supplied from an oil supplier and lead the lubricating oil to the in-shaft oil passage in each of the pinion shafts.

A gearbox comprising a gearbox housing at least partially surrounding a cavity, an oil sump connected to the gearbox housing and surrounding another cavity, and a separating element separating the cavity from the other cavity and having a passage through which oil located in the cavity is fed into the other cavity. The passage is arranged in a plane at an intersection line between a first oil level upper side and a second oil level upper side. The oil is fed from the cavity into the other cavity exclusively through the passage. The separating element has a passage section and a separating section, the passage section protrudes from the separating section in the radial direction.

A lubricating apparatus for a differential device of vehicle may include a ring gear mounted in the inside of a housing mounted at an oil pan, the ring gear being provided such that at least a portion of a lower portion of the ring gear is submerged into oil to churn the oil by being rotated; and a gear casing including a partition wall which is provided to surround an outer peripheral surface of the ring gear and allows the oil to flow into between the partition wall itself and the ring gear and a restriction part which is located in a front of the ring gear and formed with a top end portion facing an upper portion of the housing to limit an amount of the oil flowing into between the partition wall and the ring gear.
