POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a pinion gear having a large pinion gear and a small pinion gear, a carrier that supports the pinion gear, a ring gear that engages with the small pinion gear, an oil supply unit positioned above a horizontal line that passes through a revolution center of the pinion gear, and a downstream side wall part facing a gear surface of the large pinion gear. The downstream side wall part is arranged to be adjacent to the oil supply unit further downstream in a revolution direction of the pinion gear than the oil supply unit when viewed from an axial direction.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a gear mechanism, a wall part that overlaps with the gear mechanism in an axial direction, a plate provided between the wall part and the gear mechanism in the axial direction, and a park lock mechanism. The park lock mechanism has a parking pawl on a side of a surface of the plate facing the wall part. The park lock mechanism has a manual shaft and/or a detent mechanism on a side of a surface of the plate facing the gear mechanism.

POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a pinion gear having a large pinion gear and a small pinion gear, a wall part that overlaps a revolution orbit of the large pinion gear in an axial direction, a plate that is provided between the wall part and the large pinion gear, and a bottom part provided on a lower part of the plate and a lower part of the revolution orbit of the large pinion gear with a clearance being interposed. A space on a wall part side of the plate and a space on a large pinion gear side of the plate in the axial direction are in communication with each other via the clearance positioned at the lower part of the plate.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a bearing, a differential mechanism, a case that houses the differential mechanism, a pinion gear supported by the case, a wall part that overlaps the case in an axial direction, a plate that is provided between the wall part and the case in the axial direction, and that supports the case with the bearing being interposed, and a parking pawl that is rotatably fixed to the plate in a position that overlaps the plate in the axial direction.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a box, a case disposed in the box, a differential mechanism housed in the case, and a planetary gear mechanism disposed in the box and supported by the case. The planetary gear mechanism includes a sun gear and a pinion gear that engages with the sun gear. The box has a shelf part above a horizontal line that passes through a revolution center of the pinion gear. The shelf part is arranged at a position that does not overlap the sun gear when viewed from radially above.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a motor, a gear mechanism connected downstream of the motor and lubricated by oil, and a box. The box has a wall part that covers an outer circumference of the gear mechanism, and a jacket part that covers an outer circumference of the wall part. A cooling chamber, in which cooling liquid is introduced, is formed between the wall part and the jacket part. The cooling chamber includes a portion that overlaps with the gear mechanism when seen from a radial direction, and a portion that overlaps the gear mechanism when seen from an axial direction.
EPICYCLIC GEAR CARRIER ASSEMBLY HAVING AN INTEGRATED LUBRICATION PUMP
An example transmission comprising a lubricant feed passageway to receive lubricant; an input shaft having a cavity that defines a shaft collection trough to receive the lubricant from the lubricant feed passageway, the input shaft defining a radial passageway to enable the lubricant to flow from the shaft collection trough to an exterior surface of the input shaft; and a carrier to receive at least a portion of the input shaft, the carrier defining a carrier collection trough and channels formed in the carrier to distribute the lubricant to at least one of rotating components or non-rotating components in the carrier, the carrier collection trough to receive the lubricant from the shaft collection trough via the radial passageway in response to the input shaft rotating.
