Further, according to transmitter 1, even if due to housing 7 relative to horizontal level with the maximum angle (example in reality application Such as 40 °) tilt, the pasta of the lubricating oil 3 entering the ormal weight of the inner space 5 of housing 7 also is located at than breather chamber 17 on the lower Side, even if so when automobile 45 tilts, lubricating oil 3 also will not flow out outside housing 7.
Referring especially to Figure 12, housing body unit recess 29 is divided into multiple recess (for example, two by the 3rd spaced walls; 29A, 29B), vent path 21 only connects with the recess 29A being positioned at top side in them.Multiple housing body unit recesses 29 It is interconnected by case cover recess 33.The lubricating oil for example having invaded from through hole 15A and the flowing F of air temporarily exist Pass through in recess 29B, after being bent traveling by the 3rd spaced walls stop, flow into recess 29A.Inside due to breather chamber 17 Space is sufficiently large, so flowing F becomes extremely slow, and bends traveling, thus is separated into lubricating oil LO and air A.Air A Can recess 29A by and flow into vent path 21, and to outside release.
Can be clear and definite from Fig. 2 B, Fig. 4, owing to recess 29A is positioned at than recess 29B more by the top, so isolated lubricating oil LO Gravity cannot be violated and invade to vent path 21.Or, even if just in case substantial amounts of lubricating oil LO invades recess 29B, if recessed Portion 29B is not filled, and can not invade recess 29A.Lubricating oil LO returns to through hole 15A or reaches another through hole 15B, by any one through hole, internally space 5 returns.Owing to there is plural through hole 15A, 15B, so depositing On the release road of lubricating oil, push away lubrication oil condition from without having the air that pressure uprises.
Further, from Fig. 2 B definitely, owing to the first gear 37 is close to through hole 15A, so the first gear 37 is splash Lubricating oil easily invade through hole 15A.But, through hole 15B is away from the first gear 37, and the diameter ratio of the second gear 39 The diameter of the first gear 37 little and away from through hole 15B, therefore said gear the 37th, 39 lubricating oil being splash are difficult to invade through Hole 15B.Therefore, second through hole 15B manifests effect in terms of the recovery of lubricating oil, but is difficult to cause lubricating oil to flow from there Enter and to the situation of External leakage.
Additionally, the breather chamber 17 being also located at case cover 25 side also only can form breather chamber 17 in housing body unit 23 side, And case cover 25 side is as the flat plate wall of the end face closing this breather chamber 17.In the case of Gai, through hole 15A, 15B be located at housing Main part 23 side.In addition, in the case of only breather chamber 17 being set in housing body unit 23 side, it is also possible in order to close breather chamber Plate is installed on its end face by the end face of 17 and the plate that arranges other parts, and be bolted, welding etc. secures a plate to Around its end face.
Two through holes all can not be located at case cover 25 yet, it is also possible to either one is located at housing body unit 23.For shape Become such through hole, it is also possible to as shown in Figure 9 A to offer hole at housing 7 in the way of the outside of housing 7 is internally through Hole 91.Make recess 29B with inner space 5 even with reference to Fig. 9 B, Figure 10, hole 91 throughgoing recesses 29B and spaced walls 13, and formation Logical through hole 15C.Hole 91 also can be closed by suitable plug, and also can utilize and inject lubricating oil.Can be as Exemplified by Figure 11 like that, such housing body unit 23 combines the case cover 25 only possessing unique through hole 15A.
With reference to Figure 13, identical with above-mentioned embodiment, the lubricating oil having invaded from through hole 15A and the flowing of air F temporarily passes through in recess 29B, and flows into recess 29A in the way of bending is advanced.Flowing F is separated into lubrication during this period Oil LO and air A, air A can recess 29A by and via vent path 21 to outside discharge.Due to through hole 15C position In recess 29B, so lubricating oil LO will not be full of recess 29B, invade vent path 21 thus without by recess 29A.Profit Lubricating oil LO returns from through hole 15A or 15C internally space 5.Owing to there is plural through hole 15A, 15C, so Do not have on the air that pressure uprises and push away lubrication oil condition.
Further, can be clear and definite from Fig. 9 B, through hole 15C is towards the first axle 9, but not towards the first gear 37, certainly also not with Any gear is close.Thus it is difficult to the situation of the lubricating oil intrusion through hole 15C causing any one gear to be splash.Therefore, pass through Through hole 15C manifests effect in terms of the recovery of lubricating oil, but will not promote the leakage of lubricating oil.
