This is an eccentric oscillating gear device having a shape that extends and an oil groove capable of storing lubricating oil.

  In this invention, the oil groove which can store lubricating oil is formed along the periphery of the attaching part for attaching a crank bearing. For this reason, when the carrier rotates and centrifugal force is generated, it is possible to prevent all of the oil from flowing out from the oil groove, so that the lubrication of the crank bearing can be maintained. In addition, since the oil groove is formed on the surface of the carrier that faces the rocking gear, it is possible to suppress an increase in the labor of forming the oil groove.

It is preferable to be provided corresponding to the mounting portion.

  In this aspect, since a plurality of crankshafts are provided, the swing gear can be driven by a crankshaft having a small diameter, and lubrication of each crank bearing can be ensured.

  In the eccentric oscillating gear device, a communication groove that connects the oil grooves may be formed.

  In this aspect, since it is possible to avoid a situation in which the lubricating oil is stored in a biased position among the plurality of oil grooves, it is possible to ensure lubrication of all the crank bearings.
