In this case, a sun gear 14 is fixed to the output shaft 12, and a planetary gear 16 is meshed with the sun gear 14. Further, an internal gear 18 is disposed coaxially with the output shaft 12 and the sun gear 14, and meshes with the planetary gear 16.

This is done by pumping lubricating oil into the axial passages 32 and radial passages 34 of No. 2. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2, lubricating oil is supplied to the tooth surface 14A of the sun gear 14 from the hollow part 26 of the output shaft 12 through the radial passage 36 of the sun gear 14, and the centrifugal force of the lubricating oil This is done forcibly using a hydraulic control device or by using a hydraulic control device.

小孔形成は、かなりの難作業となつている。 However, with such a lubricating oil passage structure, there is a problem in that the strength of the sun gear itself is reduced by providing a passage in the sun gear, and its life is shortened. Furthermore, when the sun gear is small, forming a small hole in the tooth bottom becomes a very difficult task.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances.The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate machining of the sun gear to prevent its strength from decreasing, and to provide a planetary gear device that can smoothly supply lubrication to the tooth surfaces. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a lubricating oil passage structure.

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, the lubricating oil passage for the planetary gear formed in the carrier is branched in the middle, and its outlet is opened to the tooth side of the sun gear to force the lubricating oil to the tooth side. It is configured so that it can be supplied, and the passage for the sun gear itself is omitted.

FIG. 3 shows a planetary gear device 40 to which the lubricating oil passage structure of the present invention is applied. In this planetary gear device 40, a sun gear 44 is fixed to an input shaft 42, and a planetary gear 46 is engaged with a tooth surface 44A of the sun gear 44. Further, a ring-shaped internal gear 48 is coaxially connected to the input shaft 42 and the sun gear 44.
is fixedly arranged and meshed with the planetary gear 46.

The carrier 54 is rotatably supported by the input shaft 52, extends in the radial direction of the input shaft 52 in the form of an arm, and, although not shown, the other end of the carrier 54 is connected to the output side. Therefore, power from the engine enters the input shaft 42 through the torque converter, and is transmitted to the output side, ie, the drive wheels, through the sun gear 44, the planet gears 46, and the carrier 54.

て閉塞されている。 Next, the lubricating oil passage of this planetary gear device 40 will be explained. A hollow portion 56 is formed in the input shaft 42 along the axial direction, and lubricating oil adjusted to a predetermined oil pressure is supplied from a hydraulic control device (not shown) in the direction of the arrow. The input shaft 42 has an annular groove 58A and a radial passage 58B communicating with the annular groove 58A, and the carrier 54 also has an annular groove 58A.
A passage 60 communicating with 8A is formed. Therefore, even if the carrier 54 rotates relative to the input shaft 42, the annular groove 58A and the passage 60 always communicate with each other. This passage 60 is connected to an axial passage 62 of the shaft 52, and a passage 64 is provided in the radial direction in the middle of the axial passage 62 and opens toward the needle bearing 50 and the planetary gear 46. The open ends of the passage 60 and the axial passage 62 are closed by pins 66 and 68.

0及び遊星歯車46の潤滑作用を行なう。 Therefore, the lubricating oil pressurized within the hollow portion 56 passes through the radial passage 58B, the annular groove 58A, the passage 60, the axial passage 62, and the passage 64 to the needle bearing 5.
0 and the planetary gear 46.
一方、キヤリア54の通路60には通路70が

供給される潤滑油は遠心力をあまり利用できない
ため、強制的に潤滑油が歯面44Aへ噴出するよ
うに油圧を設定するのが望ましい。 On the other hand, a passage 70 orthogonally communicates with the passage 60 of the carrier 54, and the passage 70 opens toward the tooth surface 44A of the sun gear 44. For this reason, the passage 60
A portion of the lubricating oil inside passes through the passage 70 to the sun gear 4.
This results in the lubrication action of step 4. Since the lubricating oil supplied to the tooth surface 44A cannot make much use of centrifugal force, it is desirable to set the oil pressure so that the lubricating oil is forcibly ejected to the tooth surface 44A.

る。 This configuration eliminates the need for a lubricating oil passage in the sun gear 44 itself, making it possible to prevent the strength of the sun gear 44 from decreasing as in the prior art. In addition, even if the size of the sun gear 44 is small, forming the passage does not become a difficult task.Furthermore, since the conventional lubricating oil passage for planetary gears is extensively used, there is only a small amount of drilling work required for a new passage. Incidentally, the present invention is also applicable to a planetary gear mechanism having a power transmission path different from that of the above embodiment.

As mentioned above, in the lubricating oil passage structure of the present invention, the lubricating oil passage for the planetary gear formed in the carrier is branched in the middle, and the outlet is opened toward the tooth surface side of the sun gear, so that a part of the lubricating oil is released. Since the lubricating oil is ejected onto the tooth surface, the lubricating oil passage of the sun gear itself can be omitted, and the life of the sun gear can therefore be improved.
