A transmission mechanism device of an aspect of the present invention includes a motor, a transmission mechanism including a plurality of gears, a first shaft and a bearing supporting the first shaft and transmitting power of the motor, a housing that accommodates the transmission mechanism and holds the bearing on an inner face, oil that collects in a lower region inside the housing, a catch tank that is disposed inside the housing and opens upward, an oil passage through which the oil passes, and an oil pump provided in the oil passage. The oil passage has a first path connecting the oil pump and the catch tank and a scooping path for scooping the oil by rotation of the gear to guide the scooped oil to the catch tank. The catch tank includes a feed portion for supplying the oil to the gear or the bearing.

An oil feed structure includes: a hydraulic clutch; a power transmitting shaft coupled to the hydraulic clutch; a valve element inserted into the power transmitting shaft, and a spring configured to bias the valve element. The valve element includes: a pressure receiving surface facing in an axial direction of the power transmitting shaft and configured to receive hydraulic pressure of a hydraulic pressure oil passage; and a port communicable with a clutch lubrication hole of the power transmitting shaft. The spring biases the valve element toward the hydraulic pressure oil passage against the hydraulic pressure received by the pressure receiving surface. When clutch operating hydraulic pressure changes, the valve element moves in the axial direction to change an opening degree of communication between the port and the clutch lubrication hole.

A deterioration diagnosis apparatus is for a mechanical apparatus including a power transmission mechanism that transmits power via a gear. The deterioration diagnosis apparatus includes: a storing unit that stores, in advance, a trend of change along with the operation of the mechanical apparatus, in consumption rate of an additive contained in lubricant used for the gear; and a determination unit that determines the period to be taken for the consumption rate of the additive to reach a predetermined value, based on the trend of change in the consumption rate of the additive.

A drive device for driving wheels of a motor vehicle includes a housing, an electric machine with a stator and rotor, a first output shaft for driving a first wheel, and a second output shaft for driving a second wheel. Via a differential transmission, first and second planetary gearsets are drivable by the rotor. First and second differential shafts transfer drive power from the differential transmission to the first and second planetary gearsets. The first differential shaft is mounted rotatably on an input shaft via bearings and the rotor is connected non-rotationally to the input shaft. A stable and non-buckling bearing of the second differential shaft in relation to the rotor is carried out via further bearings arranged on the second differential shaft or in the first differential shaft. The further bearings are arranged spaced apart from one another at least at a distance of twice an average bearing diameter.

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.

A hydraulic arrangement for an agricultural or industrial utility vehicle includes a main hydraulic circuit, a main hydraulic pump, a charge pump, a lubricating hydraulic circuit, a gearbox lubricating hydraulic circuit, a shifting hydraulic circuit, and a gearbox pump. Hydraulic fluid can be fed to the main hydraulic circuit by the main hydraulic pump. Hydraulic fluid can be fed to the main hydraulic pump by the charge pump. At least a part of the hydraulic fluid delivered by the charge pump can be fed to the lubricating hydraulic circuit. Hydraulic fluid can be fed to the shifting hydraulic circuit by the gearbox pump. At least a portion of the hydraulic fluid delivered by the charge pump can be fed to the gearbox lubricating hydraulic circuit.

An electric oil pump includes: a pump unit 2, rotating to make oil flow; a motor 3 driving the pump unit; a control unit 4 exerting driving control on the motor; and a housing 1 accommodating the pump unit, the motor, and the motor control unit.
