Dynamic damper
A dynamic damper for suppressing vibration generated by a gear attached to a rotation shaft, the dynamic damper, includes: a mass body that is disposed inside a rotation shaft having a hollow shape and extends along a shaft center of the rotation shaft; and an elastic body that couples the mass body to the rotation shaft. Further, a flow path for lubricating liquid to flow is provided between an inner peripheral surface of the rotation shaft and the mass body, and the flow path is formed by the inner peripheral surface of the rotation shaft at an axial position where the elastic body is disposed.
Dynamic damper
A dynamic damper includes: a mass body that is disposed inside a rotation shaft and extends along a shaft center of the rotation shaft; and an elastic body interposed between the mass body and the rotation shaft. Further, the mass body is allowed to vibrate to a linear motion state, the elastic body includes: first and second contact surfaces, when the gear generates vibration so as to fall from a radial direction of the rotation shaft to an axial direction side of the rotation shaft, compressive stress acts on the elastic body by the mass body vibrating so as to push the first contact surface in response to the vibration, and when the gear generates vibration along the axial direction, compressive stress acts on the elastic body by the mass body coming in the linear motion state and vibrating so as to push the second contact surface.

Torque transmission joint and electric power steering apparatus
Provided is a torque-transmission joint 15a that is able to reduce the thrust force that is transmitted between the output shaft 12a of an electric motor 8 and a worm shaft 6a without generating noise. A shock-absorbing member 18a that is made using an elastic material is assembled between a driving-side transmission member 16a that is supported by the output shaft 12a and a driven-side member 17a that is supported by the worm shaft 6a. Held sections 33a, 33b of the shock-absorbing member 18a are located between the side surfaces in the circumferential direction of driving-side arm sections 21a of the driving-side transmission member 16a and side surfaces in the circumferential direction of driven-side arm sections 23a of the driven-side transmission member 17a. A damper section 26 is integrally provided with the shock-absorbing member 18a, and that damper section 26 is elastically held between the tip-end surface of the output shaft 12a and the base-end surface of the worm shaft 16a.
TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPERS HAVING A PLURALITY OF ELASTOMERIC RING BUSHINGS
Torsional vibration dampers are disclosed that have a hub defining a plurality of fastener-receiving openings and an inertia member concentric about and spaced a radial distance apart from a shaft-receiving member of the hub and having a plurality of receptacles defining a bore oriented axially. Each receptacle aligns with one of the plurality of fastener-receiving openings, and receives one of a plurality of elastomeric rings with a fastener seated therein and received in the fastener-receiving openings to operatively connect the inertia member to the hub through compression of the elastomeric rings. The height of each elastomeric ring is greater than the axial width of the receptacles, and compression of the elastomeric rings deforms each radially into a first gap between the hub and the inertia member and a second gap between the inertia member and the fastener, thereby axially locking the inertia member to the hub for rotation together.
A ROTARY DEVICE, A MOTOR AND A METHOD OF COOLING A MOTOR
The invention provides a motor for generating rotary power, the motor comprising: a stator for receiving electrical power; a rotor arranged coaxially with respect to the stator and having one or more magnets arranged thereon so that in response to the stator receiving the electrical power, the rotor is caused to rotate; the rotor comprising a rotor housing having an inner wall, the magnets being arranged around the housing, and wherein the inner wall has plural tortuous paths for the flow of coolant extending along the length of the rotor housing. Preferably, the motor has an output shaft arranged at least partially axially within the rotor housing; the inner wall being shaped for engagement with and so as to drive the output shaft.
