Disclosed herein is a reducer for an electronic power steering apparatus, which includes a gear housing including a worm shaft housing and a worm wheel housing, the gear housing being made of a heat conductive material, a worm wheel shaft connected to a steering shaft to rotate along with rotation of the steering shaft, a worm wheel accommodated in the worm wheel housing, and having a first surface and a second surface facing the first surface, the worm wheel shaft being coupled to the worm wheel, a first heat transfer plate provided to come into contact with the first surface of the worm wheel, and a first bearing coupled to the worm wheel shaft to come into contact with the first heat transfer plate, and having an outer peripheral surface coming into contact with the worm wheel housing.

A gear motor assembly includes a casing having a through hole, a motor fixed to the casing, an output shaft, a gear fixed to the output shaft and driven by the motor, and a substantially tubular bearing fixed in the through hole of the casing. The gear has a central hub which has an axial end surface, and a shaft portion extending from a central portion of the axial end surface of the central hub. The shaft portion is sleeved in the bearing. A slot is formed in the outer surface of the shaft portion and is filled with lubricant. The slot extends from a free end of the shaft portion to a joint between the outer surface of the shaft portion and the axial end surface of the central hub.

The present invention provides a lubrication device for coating a lubricant onto the outer circumferential surface of a bearing. A lubrication device comprises a housing and a lubrication member that is accommodated within the housing. A bearing crosses and passes through the lubrication member so that an outer circumferential surface of the bearing comes into contact with an inner surface of the lubrication member, and due to this configuration, it becomes possible for the lubricant to be coated onto the outer circumferential surface of the bearing.

A speed reducer for an electric power steering system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a gear housing, a plurality of air flow passages, and check valves. The gear housing accommodates a worm shaft and a worm wheel. The plurality of air flow passages is formed in the gear housing and connects the outside of the gear housing and a sealed space formed in the gear housing. The check valves are respectively disposed in the plurality of air flow passages.

A gear is provided that has excellent continuous moldability for practical use, and both high slidability and high durability. The provided gear is a molded resin constructed of a resin composition comprising a thermoplastic resin (A) and cellulose nanofibers (B) with an average fiber diameter of 1000 nm or smaller, and having a number average molecular weight of the thermoplastic resin (A) in the range of 10,000 to 150,000, wherein a sliding surface of the gear with another gear teeth has an arithmetic mean surface roughness Sa of 3.0 μm or lower.

The present invention belongs to the technical field of steering gears, and specifically discloses an oil-immersed steering gear, including a shell assembly, where a control chamber and an oil immersion chamber are separated in the shell assembly. According to the oil-immersed steering gear of the present invention, the gear transmission assembly is immersed in the liquid gear oil in the oil immersion chamber, so that fluid lubrication conditions can be maintained in a meshing area of the gear transmission assembly for a long time, thereby preventing gear wear, ensuring stable output speed, and prolonging the service life of the steering gear. Even if the steering gear is used for a long time, no noise will be made.

The invention relates to a geared motor (1) for a motor-vehicle wiping system comprising an electric motor (2) comprising a rotor (20) including magnetic elements, a stator (21) having the electromagnetic excitation windings of the rotor, a rotary shaft (22) rigidly connected to the rotor, a reduction gear (3) linking the rotary shaft (22) and an output shaft of the geared motor, a casing (4) forming a protective envelope for said reduction gear, or the electric motor (2), and in which said reduction gear (3) includes a worm screw and worm wheel gear, the worm screw (30) being rigidly connected to the rotary shaft of the rotor (22), the worm wheel (31) rigidly connected to an output shaft (8) of the geared motor, bearing means (23, 24) for guiding the rotary shaft of the rotor (22) in rotation in relation to the casing (4), and potentially, a determination device for determining the angular position of the rotor including a multi-pole magnet (5) that is rigidly connected to the rotary shaft (22) of the rotor (20).
