By the way, in order to transmit the driving force more effectively, it is advantageous to use a dry type differential clutch that has less friction loss, and if a wet type clutch that is lubricated with oil is used, it will reduce the amount of oil. This causes problems such as swelling of the friction material stretched over the clutch surface, deterioration of the oil due to friction powder, and changes in clutch characteristics due to changes in oil viscosity due to the influence of outside temperature.

The inside of the case cover 16 is divided into two parts by a partition wall 16a, and the partition wall 16a is formed to substantially coincide with the swing shaft 13 located on the center line of the vehicle body. A small compartment S1 formed behind the case cover 16 by the partition wall 16a constitutes a lubrication chamber.
The chamber S 1 is completely sealed from the other chamber S 2 by seal members 25, 25. As shown in the drawing, a reduction gear B is housed in the lubricating chamber S1 in close proximity to the partition wall 16a, and the reduction gear B is lubricated with oil.

The driven shaft 19 is driven to rotate. The rotation of this driven shaft 19 is transmitted to one axle 26 via the reduction gear B, and the rotation of this axle 26 is transmitted to the other axle 27 via the differential clutch C, so that the rotation of both the left and right axles 26 and 27 is rear wheel 15,
15 is driven to rotate.

By the way, the power unit 14 is connected to the rear wheel 1.
5 and 15, it can freely swing left and right with respect to the swing shaft 13. However, in the above-mentioned power transmission device, the partition wall 16a is formed to substantially coincide with the swing shaft 13, and the differential clutch C and the reduction gear B, which are relatively heavy compared to other parts, are separated from the partition wall 16a.
Because they are arranged close to each other on the left and right sides, the moment of inertia around the swing axis 13 of the rear vehicle body 3 can be suppressed to a minimum, increasing the restoring force against rolling of the rear vehicle body 3, and reducing the rolling period. It can be made shorter, and as a result, ride comfort, maneuverability, running performance, etc. can be improved.

In addition, since the differential clutch C is completely separated from the reduction gear B by the partition wall 16a, the lubricating oil on the reduction gear B side does not enter the differential clutch C side, and the wear of the differential clutch C does not occur. The resulting abrasion powder does not mix into the oil, preventing the oil from deteriorating and increasing its durability.

Although the above embodiments have been described with reference to the case in which the present invention is applied to a motorized tricycle, the present invention is not limited to this type of vehicle, but can be applied to any other vehicle with two rear wheels and a unit swing structure. It is possible.

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the case wall is formed to substantially coincide with the swing axis located on the center line of the vehicle body, and the differential clutch and deceleration clutch are arranged adjacent to the swing axis on the left and right sides of the case wall. Since the gears are arranged individually, the moment of inertia of the vehicle body around the rocking axis can be suppressed to a small value, and the stability against rolling of the vehicle body can be increased, thereby improving riding comfort, maneuverability, running performance, etc.
