 従来、下記特許文献1に開示されているように、産業用ロボットの関節部等に用いることができる偏心揺動型歯車装置が知られている。この特許文献1に開示された偏心揺動型歯車装置は、内歯を有するケースと、ケース内に挿入され且つケースに対して回動可能なキャリアと、偏心部を有し且つキャリアに回転自在に支持されたクランク軸と、偏心部に嵌められ且つケースの内歯に噛み合いながら揺動する揺動歯車と、を備えている。クランク軸がモータによって駆動されて軸回りに回転すると、揺動歯車が揺動し、これに伴い、キャリアはケースに対して相対的に回動する。ケースは産業用ロボットの基端側アームにボルトによって固定され、キャリアは先端側アームにボルトによって固定されている。このため、モータが駆動されると、先端側アームは、モータ回転数に対して所定の比率で減速された回転速度で基端側アームに対して回転する。 Conventionally, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 below, an eccentric oscillating gear device that can be used for a joint portion of an industrial robot or the like is known. The eccentric oscillating gear device disclosed in Patent Document 1 includes a case having internal teeth, a carrier inserted into the case and rotatable with respect to the case, an eccentric portion, and rotatable on the carrier. And a swing gear that is fitted to the eccentric portion and swings while meshing with the internal teeth of the case. When the crankshaft is driven by the motor and rotates about the axis, the swing gear swings, and accordingly, the carrier rotates relative to the case. The case is fixed to the proximal end arm of the industrial robot by a bolt, and the carrier is fixed to the distal end arm by the bolt. For this reason, when the motor is driven, the distal arm rotates with respect to the proximal arm at a rotational speed reduced at a predetermined ratio with respect to the motor rotation speed.
 前記特許文献1に開示された偏心揺動型歯車装置では、製造時のリードタイムが長いという問題がある。すなわち、ケースは、全体として筒状に形成されており、内面に多数の内歯を配設すべく多数の内歯溝が形成されている。ケースの外面には、ケースを取り付ける相手部材である先端側アームに締結するためのボルト孔が形成されたフランジが設けられている。したがって、ケースは、複雑な構成となっている。そして、ケースは鋳造品もしくは鍛造品であって、機械加工によりボルト孔が形成される。相手部材に取り付けるためのボルト孔の位置や大きさ、あるいはフランジ部の形状は、偏心揺動型歯車装置が納入される客先での仕様によって異なり、千差万別である。このため、受注を見込んで予めケースを作っておくということは事実上困難である。しかも、ケースの構成は複雑である。したがって、受注が確定してから納品できるまでのリードタイムが長くならざるを得ないという問題がある。 The eccentric oscillating gear device disclosed in Patent Document 1 has a problem that the lead time during manufacture is long. That is, the case is formed in a cylindrical shape as a whole, and a large number of internal tooth grooves are formed on the inner surface so as to arrange a large number of internal teeth. The outer surface of the case is provided with a flange in which a bolt hole is formed for fastening to a distal arm that is a counterpart member to which the case is attached. Therefore, the case has a complicated configuration. The case is a cast product or a forged product, and a bolt hole is formed by machining. The position and size of the bolt hole to be attached to the mating member, or the shape of the flange portion varies depending on the specifications at the customer to whom the eccentric oscillating gear device is delivered, and it is very different. For this reason, it is practically difficult to make a case in advance in anticipation of an order. Moreover, the configuration of the case is complicated. Therefore, there is a problem that the lead time from when the order is confirmed until delivery can be extended.

 以下、本発明を実施するための形態について図面を参照しながら詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
 図1に示すように、本実施形態に係る偏心揺動型歯車装置10は、ケース12と、このケース12の内側で当該ケース12に対して相対的に回転可能なキャリア14と、入力された回転数を所定の回転数比で減速するための減速機構18とを備えている。この歯車装置10は、ケース12に第1の部材(相手部材)である図外の第1アームが締結され、キャリア14に第2の部材(相手部材)である図外の第2アームが締結される。すなわち、第1アーム及び第2アームはロボットアームを構成しており、偏心揺動型歯車装置10は、ロボットアームの関節に用いられる減速機として構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 1, the eccentric oscillating gear device 10 according to the present embodiment is input with a case 12 and a carrier 14 that can rotate relative to the case 12 inside the case 12. And a speed reduction mechanism 18 for decelerating the rotational speed at a predetermined rotational speed ratio. In the gear device 10, a first arm (not shown) that is a first member (mating member) is fastened to the case 12, and a second arm (not shown) that is a second member (mating member) is fastened to the carrier 14. Is done. That is, the first arm and the second arm constitute a robot arm, and the eccentric oscillating gear device 10 is constituted as a speed reducer used for a joint of the robot arm.
 ケース12は、円筒状に形成されたケース本体12aと、このケース本体12aの外側に設けられたフランジ部12bとを有する。フランジ部12bの軸方向長さは、ケース本体12aの軸方向長さよりも短くなっており、フランジ部12bは、ケース本体12aの軸方向中央部分から外側に張り出した形状となっている。なお、フランジ部12bはケース本体12aにおける軸方向端部から外側に張り出した形状となっていてもよい。 The case 12 has a case main body 12a formed in a cylindrical shape, and a flange portion 12b provided outside the case main body 12a. The axial length of the flange portion 12b is shorter than the axial length of the case main body 12a, and the flange portion 12b has a shape protruding outward from the axial central portion of the case main body 12a. The flange portion 12b may have a shape protruding outward from the axial end portion of the case main body 12a.
 ケース本体12aの内周面には、多数のピン溝(内歯溝)12dが周方向に等間隔に形成されている。このピン溝12dには、それぞれピン状の内歯24が嵌め込まれている。 A large number of pin grooves (internal tooth grooves) 12d are formed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the case body 12a. Pin-shaped inner teeth 24 are fitted into the pin grooves 12d.
 本実施形態では、ケース本体12aとフランジ部12bとが別体に形成された上で互いに結合された構成となっている。すなわち、フランジ部12bは、第1アームに取り付けられる締結具としてのボルト(図示省略)を固定するための部位を有する被取付部21として構成されている。一方、ケース本体12aは、被取付部21に隣接する部位であって、内歯24が配設された部位である隣接部22として構成されている。そして、被取付部21と隣接部22とは別体に形成されている。例えば、被取付部21と隣接部22は、別個に鋳造あるいは鍛造された後、機械加工されることによって面出しされたものである。 In the present embodiment, the case main body 12a and the flange portion 12b are formed separately and then coupled to each other. That is, the flange part 12b is comprised as the to-be-attached part 21 which has a site | part for fixing the volt | bolt (illustration omitted) as a fastener attached to a 1st arm. On the other hand, the case main body 12a is configured as an adjacent portion 22 which is a portion adjacent to the attached portion 21 and where the internal teeth 24 are disposed. And the to-be-attached part 21 and the adjacent part 22 are formed in the different body. For example, the attached portion 21 and the adjacent portion 22 are surfaced by being cast or forged and then machined.
 隣接部22は円筒状に形成され、被取付部21は隣接部22に外嵌されている。すなわち、被取付部21の内径は隣接部22の外径に対応した大きさとなっている。このため、被取付部21を隣接部22に外嵌することができる。なお、隣接部22への被取付部21の嵌合は、圧入、焼きばめ、塑性結合等による嵌合でもよい。また隣接部22と被取付部21との結合をスプライン結合としてもよい。 The adjacent portion 22 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and the attached portion 21 is externally fitted to the adjacent portion 22. That is, the inner diameter of the attached portion 21 is a size corresponding to the outer diameter of the adjacent portion 22. For this reason, the attached portion 21 can be externally fitted to the adjacent portion 22. The fitting of the attached portion 21 to the adjacent portion 22 may be a fitting by press fitting, shrink fitting, plastic bonding, or the like. Moreover, it is good also considering the coupling | bonding of the adjacent part 22 and the to-be-attached part 21 as a spline coupling.
 隣接部22を構成するケース本体12aの内周面には、多数のピン溝12dが周方向に等間隔に形成されており、このピン溝12dには、それぞれピン状の内歯24が嵌め込まれている。すなわち、隣接部22には、多数の内歯24が配設されている。 A large number of pin grooves 12d are formed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the case body 12a constituting the adjacent portion 22, and pin-shaped inner teeth 24 are fitted into the pin grooves 12d, respectively. ing. That is, a large number of internal teeth 24 are disposed in the adjacent portion 22.
 被取付部21を構成するフランジ部12bには、周方向に等間隔に多数のボルト挿通孔12cが設けられている。ボルト挿通孔12cに挿通された図略のボルトを図外の第1アームのねじ穴に螺合させることにより、ケース12と第1アームとが互いに締結される。第1アームには、駆動源であるモータ(図示省略)が固定されている。 A large number of bolt insertion holes 12c are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction in the flange portion 12b constituting the attached portion 21. The case 12 and the first arm are fastened to each other by screwing a bolt (not shown) inserted through the bolt insertion hole 12c into the screw hole of the first arm (not shown). A motor (not shown) that is a drive source is fixed to the first arm.
 被取付部21には、径方向に貫通する複数のボルト挿通孔21aが形成され、隣接部22には、ボルト挿通孔21aに対応する位置に複数の締結孔22aが貫通形成されている。これら複数のボルト挿通孔21a及び締結孔22aは何れもケース12の周方向に間隔をおいて配設されている。そして、被取付部21のボルト挿通孔21aに挿通されたボルト23を隣接部22の締結孔22aに螺合させることにより、被取付部21が隣接部22に固定された状態となっている。 A plurality of bolt insertion holes 21a penetrating in the radial direction are formed in the attached portion 21, and a plurality of fastening holes 22a are formed in the adjacent portion 22 at positions corresponding to the bolt insertion holes 21a. The plurality of bolt insertion holes 21 a and the fastening holes 22 a are all arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the case 12. And the to-be-attached part 21 is in the state fixed to the adjacent part 22 by screwing the volt | bolt 23 inserted in the bolt insertion hole 21a of the to-be-attached part 21 to the fastening hole 22a of the adjacent part 22. FIG.
 締結孔22aは、隣接部22(ケース本体12a)を貫通し、ピン溝12dに連通している。このため、ピン溝12dには、ボルト挿通孔21a及び締結孔22aを通して、給油もしくは排油することが可能となっている。 The fastening hole 22a passes through the adjacent portion 22 (case body 12a) and communicates with the pin groove 12d. For this reason, it is possible to supply or drain oil into the pin groove 12d through the bolt insertion hole 21a and the fastening hole 22a.
 ボルト挿通孔21aは、被取付部21(フランジ部12b)において、軸方向の中央位置からずれた位置に形成されている。したがって、図2及び図3に示すように、被取付部21の向きを変えることにより、ケース本体12aに対するフランジ部12bの位置を変えることができる。このため、本実施形態に係る偏心揺動型歯車装置10が取り付けられる相手部材によって、フランジ部12bの位置を変更する必要がある場合にも容易に対応可能である。 The bolt insertion hole 21a is formed at a position shifted from the axial center position in the attached portion 21 (flange portion 12b). Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the position of the flange portion 12b with respect to the case main body 12a can be changed by changing the orientation of the attached portion 21. For this reason, even when it is necessary to change the position of the flange part 12b with the other member to which the eccentric rocking | fluctuation type gear apparatus 10 which concerns on this embodiment is attached, it can respond easily.
 なお、被取付部21は、相手部材や客先仕様によって、その軸方向の長さを適宜変更可能である。例えば、図4に示すように、被取付部21は、その軸方向の長さが隣接部22(ケース本体12a)の軸方向の長さと同じになるように形成されていてもよい。この場合、軸方向におけるボルト挿通孔21aの位置は、図4に示すように、軸方向の中央位置からずれた位置としてもよく、あるいは軸方向の中央位置としてもよい。さらに、軸方向に複数個のボルト挿通孔21aが設けられていてもよい。 Note that the length of the attached portion 21 can be appropriately changed depending on the mating member and customer specifications. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the attached portion 21 may be formed so that its axial length is the same as the axial length of the adjacent portion 22 (case body 12 a). In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, the position of the bolt insertion hole 21a in the axial direction may be shifted from the central position in the axial direction, or may be the central position in the axial direction. Furthermore, a plurality of bolt insertion holes 21a may be provided in the axial direction.
 また、本実施形態では、被取付部21のボルト挿通孔21aに挿通されたボルト23を隣接部22の締結孔22aに螺合させることにより、被取付部21を隣接部22に固定しているが、これに限られるものではない。例えば、被取付部21にボルト挿通孔21aではなくピン孔を形成し、これに対応する位置に形成された隣接部22の孔及び前記ピン孔にピンを打ち込むことにより、被取付部21を隣接部22に固定する構成としてもよい。 Moreover, in this embodiment, the to-be-attached part 21 is fixed to the adjacent part 22 by screwing the volt | bolt 23 inserted in the bolt insertion hole 21a of the to-be-attached part 21 to the fastening hole 22a of the adjacent part 22. However, it is not limited to this. For example, a pin hole is formed in the attached portion 21 instead of the bolt insertion hole 21a, and a pin is driven into the hole of the adjacent portion 22 formed at a position corresponding to the pin hole, thereby adjoining the attached portion 21. It is good also as a structure fixed to the part 22. FIG.
 キャリア14は、軸方向に間隔をおいて配置された一対の主軸受26によってケース12に支持されていて、ケース12と同心状に回転可能となっている。すなわち、キャリア14はケース12の軸心回りにケース12に対して相対的に回転する。主軸受26は、それぞれアンギュラ玉軸受によって構成されている。 The carrier 14 is supported by the case 12 by a pair of main bearings 26 arranged at intervals in the axial direction, and can rotate concentrically with the case 12. That is, the carrier 14 rotates relative to the case 12 around the axis of the case 12. The main bearings 26 are each constituted by an angular ball bearing.
 キャリア14は、円板状の端板部30と、この端板部30に締結される基部31とを備えている。この基部31は、基板部32と、この基板部32の一方の面に突設されたシャフト部33とを有している。 The carrier 14 includes a disk-shaped end plate portion 30 and a base portion 31 fastened to the end plate portion 30.

The shaft portion 33 and the end plate portion 30 are fastened to each other by a bolt 34 in a state where the tip surface of the shaft portion 33 is in contact with the end plate portion 30. In this state, a space having a predetermined width in the axial direction is formed between the substrate portion 32 and the end plate portion 30.
 シャフト部33にはボルト締結孔33aが設けられている。シャフト部33と反対側から端板部30のボルト挿通孔30aに挿入されたボルト34は、シャフト部33のボルト締結孔33aに螺合されている。また、基部31に対して端板部30を位置決めするピン36が、端板部30からシャフト部33に亘って配置されている。すなわち、ピン36は、端板部30に形成された挿通孔30bに挿通されるとともに、シャフト部33の先端面に形成されたピン孔33bに挿通されている。 The shaft portion 33 is provided with a bolt fastening hole 33a. The bolt 34 inserted into the bolt insertion hole 30 a of the end plate portion 30 from the opposite side of the shaft portion 33 is screwed into the bolt fastening hole 33 a of the shaft portion 33. A pin 36 for positioning the end plate portion 30 with respect to the base portion 31 is disposed from the end plate portion 30 to the shaft portion 33. That is, the pin 36 is inserted into the insertion hole 30 b formed in the end plate portion 30 and is inserted into the pin hole 33 b formed in the distal end surface of the shaft portion 33.
 基部31には、相手部材である第2アームが取り付けられる。すなわち、第2アームにはボルト挿通孔が形成されており、基部31における外側面において、このボルト挿通孔に対応する位置に締結孔31aが形成されている。そして、第2アームのボルト挿通孔に挿通された図略の取付ボルトを基部31の締結孔31aに螺合することにより、第2アームと基部31とが互いに締結される。 A second arm, which is a counterpart member, is attached to the base 31. That is, a bolt insertion hole is formed in the second arm, and a fastening hole 31 a is formed on the outer surface of the base portion 31 at a position corresponding to the bolt insertion hole. And the 2nd arm and the base 31 are mutually fastened by screwing the unillustrated mounting bolt inserted in the bolt insertion hole of the 2nd arm to the fastening hole 31a of the base 31.
 基板部32には、基板部32の径方向中央部を厚み方向に貫通する中央貫通孔32aが形成されている。基板部32には、後述するクランク軸46の一端部が挿入されるとともに第2クランク軸受52が取り付けられるように、孔部32bが設けられている。この孔部32bは、中央貫通孔32aの周囲に複数設けられている。 The substrate portion 32 is formed with a central through hole 32a that penetrates the central portion in the radial direction of the substrate portion 32 in the thickness direction. The substrate portion 32 is provided with a hole portion 32b so that one end portion of a crankshaft 46 described later is inserted and the second crank bearing 52 is attached. A plurality of the holes 32b are provided around the central through hole 32a.
 端板部30には、その中央を軸方向に貫通する貫通孔30cが形成されている。端板部30の貫通孔30cは、基板部32の中央貫通孔32aとほぼ同じ内径を有している。 The end plate portion 30 is formed with a through hole 30c penetrating the center in the axial direction. The through hole 30 c of the end plate portion 30 has substantially the same inner diameter as the central through hole 32 a of the substrate portion 32.
 前記減速機構18は、伝達歯車44とクランク軸46と揺動歯車(第1揺動歯車48aと第2揺動歯車48b)とを備えている。第1揺動歯車48aと第2揺動歯車48bは、それぞれケース12の内歯24に噛み合う歯部である外歯を有する。伝達歯車44は、端板部30側のクランク軸46の端部にスプライン結合されている。伝達歯車44は、キャリア14を回転させる駆動力(図外のモータを駆動源とする駆動力)を入力するための図略の入力軸に設けられた駆動歯車(図示省略)と噛み合う。したがって、クランク軸46には伝達歯車44を介して駆動力が伝達し、これによりクランク軸46は入力軸の回転に連動して回転する。なお、入力軸は、先端部が端板部30の貫通孔30cに挿入されるように配設されていてもよい。 The speed reduction mechanism 18 includes a transmission gear 44, a crankshaft 46, and a swing gear (a first swing gear 48a and a second swing gear 48b). The first oscillating gear 48 a and the second oscillating gear 48 b each have external teeth that are teeth that mesh with the internal teeth 24 of the case 12. The transmission gear 44 is splined to the end of the crankshaft 46 on the end plate portion 30 side. The transmission gear 44 meshes with a driving gear (not shown) provided on an input shaft (not shown) for inputting a driving force for rotating the carrier 14 (a driving force using a motor (not shown) as a driving source). Accordingly, the driving force is transmitted to the crankshaft 46 via the transmission gear 44, whereby the crankshaft 46 rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the input shaft. Note that the input shaft may be arranged such that the distal end portion is inserted into the through hole 30 c of the end plate portion 30.
 クランク軸46は、入力軸と平行に配置されており、第1クランク軸受51を介して端板部30に回転自在に支持されるとともに、第2クランク軸受52を介して基板部32に回転自在に支持されている。換言すると、第1クランク軸受51は、端板部30とクランク軸46との間に配置され、第2クランク軸受52は、基板部32とクランク軸46との間に配置されている。第1クランク軸受51及び第2クランク軸受52は何れも円錐ころ軸受によって構成されている。 The crankshaft 46 is disposed in parallel with the input shaft, is rotatably supported by the end plate portion 30 via the first crank bearing 51, and is freely rotatable on the substrate portion 32 via the second crank bearing 52. It is supported by. In other words, the first crank bearing 51 is disposed between the end plate portion 30 and the crank shaft 46, and the second crank bearing 52 is disposed between the substrate portion 32 and the crank shaft 46. Both the first crank bearing 51 and the second crank bearing 52 are constituted by tapered roller bearings.
 端板部30には、中央の貫通孔30cの周囲に複数の貫通孔30dが形成されている。これら貫通孔30dは、中央の貫通孔30cの周囲に周方向に等間隔に配設されている。そして、クランク軸46も複数設けられていて、複数のクランク軸46は周方向に等間隔に配置されている。各クランク軸46は、それぞれ端板部30の貫通孔30dを貫通するとともに、基板部32の孔部32bに挿入されている。 A plurality of through holes 30d are formed in the end plate portion 30 around the central through hole 30c. These through holes 30d are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction around the central through hole 30c.

The first and second eccentric parts 46a and 46b are out of phase with each other. That is, the eccentric direction of the first eccentric portion 46a with respect to the crank shaft center and the eccentric direction of the second eccentric portion 46b with respect to the crank shaft center are different from each other, and the phase angle is shifted by 180 degrees. Further, the plurality of crankshafts 46 are assembled to the carrier 14 so that the eccentric directions of the respective first eccentric portions 46a coincide.
 第1及び第2偏心部46a,46bは、第1クランク軸受51と第2クランク軸受52との間で軸方向に互いに隣接して配置されている。第1偏心部46aは第1クランク軸受51に隣接し、第2偏心部46bは第2クランク軸受52に隣接している。 The first and second eccentric portions 46a and 46b are disposed adjacent to each other in the axial direction between the first crank bearing 51 and the second crank bearing 52. The first eccentric portion 46 a is adjacent to the first crank bearing 51, and the second eccentric portion 46 b is adjacent to the second crank bearing 52.
 第1揺動歯車48a及び第2揺動歯車48bは、何れもキャリア14の基板部32と端板部30との間の空間に配設されている。第1揺動歯車48a及び第2揺動歯車48bには、それぞれ、中央部に形成された第1貫通孔48cと、シャフト部33が貫通可能な第2貫通孔48dと、クランク軸46の偏心部46a,46bが貫通可能な第3貫通孔48eとが形成されている。 The first oscillating gear 48 a and the second oscillating gear 48 b are both disposed in the space between the substrate portion 32 and the end plate portion 30 of the carrier 14. The first oscillating gear 48 a and the second oscillating gear 48 b are respectively provided with a first through hole 48 c formed at the center, a second through hole 48 d through which the shaft portion 33 can pass, and the eccentricity of the crankshaft 46. A third through hole 48e through which the portions 46a and 46b can penetrate is formed.
 第1及び第2偏心部46a,46bにはころ軸受55が取り付けられており、この状態で第1偏心部46aが第1揺動歯車48aの第3貫通孔48eに挿通され、第2偏心部46bが第2揺動歯車48bの第3貫通孔48eに挿通されている。第1及び第2揺動歯車48a,48bは、クランク軸46の回転によって第1及び第2偏心部46bが揺動するのに伴い、ケース12の内歯24に噛み合いながら回転する。なお、本実施形態では、揺動歯車48a,48bが2つ設けられる構成としているが、この構成に限られるものではなく、揺動歯車48a,48bが1つ又は3つ以上設けられる構成としてもよい。 Roller bearings 55 are attached to the first and second eccentric portions 46a and 46b. In this state, the first eccentric portion 46a is inserted into the third through hole 48e of the first swing gear 48a, and the second eccentric portion. 46b is inserted through the third through hole 48e of the second swing gear 48b. The first and second swing gears 48 a and 48 b rotate while meshing with the internal teeth 24 of the case 12 as the first and second eccentric portions 46 b swing due to the rotation of the crankshaft 46. In the present embodiment, two swing gears 48a and 48b are provided. However, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and one or three or more swing gears 48a and 48b may be provided. Good.
 本実施形態に係る偏心揺動型歯車装置10では、モータの駆動力によって図外の入力軸を駆動し、入力軸が回転すると伝達歯車44が回転する。これにより、クランク軸46も一体的に回転する。クランク軸46が回転すると、第1偏心部46aの揺動に伴って第1揺動歯車48aが内歯24に噛み合いながら回転し、第2偏心部46bの揺動に伴って第2揺動歯車48bが内歯24に噛み合いながら回転する。これにより、両揺動歯車48a,48bの第2貫通孔48dを貫通しているシャフト部33を有するキャリア14がケース12に対して相対的に回転する。これにより、第2アームが第1アームに対して相対的に回転する。第2アーム(キャリア14)の回転数は、入力軸の回転数に対して所定の比率で減速された回転数となっている。すなわち、減速機構18は、入力軸の回転数に対して所定の比率で減速した回転数で、ケース12に対して相対的にキャリア14を回転させる。 In the eccentric oscillating gear device 10 according to the present embodiment, the input shaft (not shown) is driven by the driving force of the motor, and when the input shaft rotates, the transmission gear 44 rotates. Thereby, the crankshaft 46 also rotates integrally. When the crankshaft 46 rotates, the first oscillating gear 48a rotates while meshing with the internal teeth 24 as the first eccentric portion 46a oscillates, and the second oscillating gear as the second eccentric portion 46b oscillates. 48 b rotates while meshing with the inner teeth 24. As a result, the carrier 14 having the shaft portion 33 penetrating the second through hole 48d of both the oscillating gears 48a and 48b rotates relative to the case 12. As a result, the second arm rotates relative to the first arm. The rotational speed of the second arm (carrier 14) is a rotational speed that is decelerated at a predetermined ratio with respect to the rotational speed of the input shaft. That is, the speed reduction mechanism 18 rotates the carrier 14 relative to the case 12 at a rotational speed that is reduced at a predetermined ratio with respect to the rotational speed of the input shaft.
 被取付部21は、本歯車装置10を装着する相手部材の形状等に応じて選択的に使用される。図1では、被取付部21がロボットアームの第2アームに固定される構成としたが、これとは別の構成の部材に取り付けて使用することもある。そして、ケース12を構成する部品の中で被取付部21のみを相手部材に応じて選択的に使用することができる一方、他の部品については、相手部材によらず同じ構成の部品を使用することができる。 The attached portion 21 is selectively used according to the shape of the mating member to which the gear device 10 is attached. In FIG. 1, the attached portion 21 is fixed to the second arm of the robot arm. However, the attached portion 21 may be attached to a member having a different configuration. And while only the to-be-attached part 21 can be selectively used according to a mating member in the components which comprise the case 12, about the other components, the components of the same structure are used regardless of the mating member. be able to.
 なお、被取付部21を隣接部22に組み付ける作業は、本歯車装置10を組み立てる前に行ってもよい。この場合、被取付部21が取り付けられたケース12としてキャリア14に組み付けることになる。また前記作業は、本歯車装置10を組み立てる途中に前記作業を行うようにしてもよい。また、被取付部21以外の部品で本歯車装置10を組み立てておき、客先での取り付け仕様が決定した後、すなわち出荷する前のタイミングで前記作業を行うようにしてもよい。前記作業は、いずれのタイミングでもよい。 In addition, you may perform the operation | work which attaches the to-be-attached part 21 to the adjacent part 22 before assembling this gear apparatus 10. FIG. In this case, the case 12 to which the attached portion 21 is attached is assembled to the carrier 14. The work may be performed while the gear device 10 is being assembled. Alternatively, the gear device 10 may be assembled with parts other than the attached portion 21, and the above operation may be performed after the installation specifications at the customer are determined, that is, at the timing before shipping. The operation may be performed at any timing.
 以上説明したように、本実施形態では、ケース12が、第1アームに取り付けられる側の部位である被取付部21(フランジ部12b)と、被取付部21に隣接する部位である隣接部22(ケース本体12a)とに別体に形成されている。このため、隣接部22については、客先の仕様による影響を受けない共通の構成としておき、被取付部21のみを客先の仕様に応じて変更する構成にすることができる。本実施形態では、ケース12の中で隣接部22については、客先の仕様によらないため、受注が確定する前に見込み生産することが可能となる。そして、受注が確定した時点で被取付部21を製造し、他の部品に組み付けてケース12を製造すればよい。したがって、受注が確定した後には、被取付部21のみを生産をすれば足りる。このため、従来の構成に比べて生産に要するリードタイムを短縮することができる。 As described above, in this embodiment, the case 12 has the attached portion 21 (flange portion 12b) that is a portion on the side attached to the first arm and the adjacent portion 22 that is a portion adjacent to the attached portion 21. (Case body 12a) and a separate body. For this reason, about the adjacent part 22, it can be set as the common structure which is not influenced by a customer's specification, and can be set as the structure which changes only the to-be-attached part 21 according to a customer's specification. In the present embodiment, the adjacent portion 22 in the case 12 does not depend on the customer's specifications, and therefore it is possible to perform prospective production before the order is confirmed. Then, the attached portion 21 may be manufactured at the time when the order is confirmed, and the case 12 may be manufactured by assembling with other parts. Therefore, after the order is confirmed, it is sufficient to produce only the attached portion 21. For this reason, the lead time required for production can be shortened as compared with the conventional configuration.
 また本実施形態では、被取付部21及び隣接部22がボルト23によって互いに締結されているので、被取付部21を隣接部22に、より強固に組み付けることができる。 Moreover, in this embodiment, since the to-be-attached part 21 and the adjacent part 22 are mutually fastened by the volt | bolt 23, the to-be-attached part 21 can be assembled | attached to the adjacent part 22 more firmly.
 しかも本実施形態では、隣接部22の締結孔22aが、内歯24が配設されるピン溝12dに連通しているので、ボルト挿通孔21a及び締結孔22aをピン溝12dに給油もしくは排油するための給排油孔として利用することができる。 In addition, in the present embodiment, the fastening holes 22a of the adjacent portions 22 communicate with the pin grooves 12d in which the inner teeth 24 are disposed, so that the bolt insertion holes 21a and the fastening holes 22a are supplied or drained to the pin grooves 12d. It can be used as a supply / discharge oil hole for this purpose.
 なお、本発明は、前記実施形態に限られるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々変更、改良等が可能である。例えば、前記実施形態では、ケース本体12a(隣接部22)とフランジ部12b(被取付部21)とがボルト23によって固定される構成とした。代替的に、図5~図7に示すように、ボルト23による固定を省略してもよい。この構成では、被取付部21が隣接部22に嵌合することによって位置決めされているので、被取付部21を隣接部22に嵌合させるだけで、隣接部22に対して位置決めすることができる。この場合、フランジ部12bが焼きばめされることによってケース本体12aに固定される構成としてもよく、あるいはケース本体12aがフランジ部12bに圧入される構成としてもよい。なお、図5及び図6に示すケース12では、フランジ部12bの軸方向長さがケース本体12aの軸方向長さがよりも短い点において共通しているが、ケース本体12aに対するフランジ部12bの配設位置が異なっている。一方、図7に示すケース12では、フランジ部12bの軸方向長さがケース本体12aの軸方向長さと同じ長さとなっている。これらは、相手部材の構成によって適宜選択される。 Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, in the embodiment, the case main body 12a (adjacent portion 22) and the flange portion 12b (attached portion 21) are fixed by the bolts 23. Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the fixing with the bolts 23 may be omitted. In this configuration, since the attached portion 21 is positioned by fitting into the adjacent portion 22, the attached portion 21 can be positioned with respect to the adjacent portion 22 simply by fitting the attached portion 21 into the adjacent portion 22. . In this case, the flange portion 12b may be fixed to the case main body 12a by shrink fitting, or the case main body 12a may be press-fitted into the flange portion 12b. In the case 12 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the axial length of the flange portion 12b is common in that the axial length of the case main body 12a is shorter than the case main body 12a. Arrangement position is different. On the other hand, in the case 12 shown in FIG. 7, the axial length of the flange portion 12b is the same as the axial length of the case body 12a. These are appropriately selected depending on the configuration of the mating member.
 また、図8に示すように、ケース本体12aの外周面にローレット加工を施した上でフランジ部12bをケース本体12aに結合する構成としてもよい。また、フランジ部12bをケース本体12aに対して塑性結合するようにしてもよい。また、スプラインによって、ケース本体12aにフランジ部12bが結合される構成としてもよい。 Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the outer peripheral surface of the case body 12a may be knurled, and the flange portion 12b may be coupled to the case body 12a. Further, the flange portion 12b may be plastically coupled to the case main body 12a. Moreover, it is good also as a structure by which the flange part 12b is couple | bonded with the case main body 12a with a spline.
 むろん、ケース本体12a(隣接部22)に対するフランジ部12b(被取付部21)の固定は、図5~図8のようにボルトを全く省略してもよいが、ボルトによる固定を併用することで、より強固な固定が得られることは言うまでもない。 Of course, the flange 12b (attached portion 21) may be fixed to the case body 12a (adjacent portion 22) as shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, but the bolt may be omitted at the same time. It goes without saying that a stronger fixation can be obtained.
 前記実施形態では、ケース12がケース本体12aとフランジ部12bとに分離される構成としたが、これに限られるものではない。例えば図9~図11に示すように、ケース12がケース本体12aにおいて分割される構成としてもよい。具体的には、図9~図11に示すケース12は、第1アームに取り付けられる締結部としてのボルト(図示省略)を固定するための部位を有する被取付部21が、フランジ部12bと、このフランジ部12の内周部から径方向内側に張り出した張り出し部21bとを備えた構成となっている。この張り出し部21bは、ケース本体12aよりも薄肉の円筒状に形成されており、図9及び図10に示すケース12では、張り出し部21bは、フランジ部12bよりも軸方向に長い形状となっている。張り出し部21bは、ケース本体12aの外周部の一部を構成している。一方、内歯24が配設された部位である隣接部22は、ケース本体12aの外周部のうち、張り出し部21bに相当する部位が切除された形状に形成されている。すなわち、隣接部22の外周部は、軸方向の一端部が残されるように外周面が凹んだ形状となっている。この凹んだ形状となっている部位は、軸方向に外径が一定の形状となっている。そして、被取付部21は、ケース本体12aの軸方向の他端部側から隣接部22に外嵌されている。そして、隣接部22における軸方向の一端部における外周面と、被取付部21の張り出し部21bにおける外周面とが面一の状態となっている。 In the above embodiment, the case 12 is separated into the case main body 12a and the flange portion 12b. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the case 12 may be divided in the case main body 12a. Specifically, in the case 12 shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the attached portion 21 having a portion for fixing a bolt (not shown) as a fastening portion attached to the first arm has a flange portion 12b, The flange portion 12 has a protruding portion 21b that protrudes radially inward from the inner peripheral portion. The projecting portion 21b is formed in a cylindrical shape that is thinner than the case body 12a. In the case 12 shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the projecting portion 21b is longer in the axial direction than the flange portion 12b. Yes. The overhang portion 21b constitutes a part of the outer peripheral portion of the case body 12a. On the other hand, the adjacent portion 22, which is a portion where the internal teeth 24 are disposed, is formed in a shape in which a portion corresponding to the protruding portion 21b is cut out of the outer peripheral portion of the case main body 12a. That is, the outer peripheral portion of the adjacent portion 22 has a shape in which the outer peripheral surface is recessed so that one end portion in the axial direction is left. This recessed portion has a shape with a constant outer diameter in the axial direction. And the to-be-attached part 21 is externally fitted by the adjacent part 22 from the other end part side of the axial direction of the case main body 12a. And the outer peripheral surface in the one end part of the axial direction in the adjacent part 22 and the outer peripheral surface in the overhang | projection part 21b of the to-be-attached part 21 are the same state.
 一方、図11に示すケース12は、張り出し部21bの軸方向長さが図9及び図10に示す被取付部21の張り出し部21bの軸方向長さと異なっている。すなわち、図11のケース12では、張り出し部21bの軸方向長さがフランジ部12bの軸方向長さよりも短く形成されている。そして、隣接部22における軸方向の一端部の外周面には、フランジ部12bの内周面が重ね合わされている。 On the other hand, in the case 12 shown in FIG. 11, the axial length of the overhanging portion 21b is different from the axial length of the overhanging portion 21b of the attached portion 21 shown in FIGS. That is, in the case 12 of FIG. 11, the axial length of the overhanging portion 21b is formed shorter than the axial length of the flange portion 12b. And the inner peripheral surface of the flange part 12b is overlaid on the outer peripheral surface of the one end part of the adjacent part 22 in the axial direction.
 図12~図14に示すように、張り出し部21bは、ケース本体12aの外周部の全体に亘る形状に形成されていてもよい。すなわち、図9~図11に示す構成では、隣接部22の軸方向の一端部がケース本体12aの外周面をも構成している形態となっているが、これと異なり、図12~図14に示す形態では、隣接部22が外部に露出しない構成となっている。この構成において、張り出し部21bの軸方向一端部が、隣接部22の軸方向の一端部よりも軸方向に突出する形状としてもよい。隣接部22から軸方向に突出した張り出し部21bの先端部21cは、オイルシールを嵌め込む部位として利用される。このため、先端部21cの軸方向長さを客先の要望に応じて変えることにより、ダブルオイルシールタイプに容易に変更することができる。なお、隣接部22の軸方向端部(ピン溝12dに対して軸方向外側に位置する部位)は主軸受26が装着される部位となる。 As shown in FIGS. 12 to 14, the projecting portion 21b may be formed in a shape extending over the entire outer peripheral portion of the case body 12a. That is, in the configuration shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the one end portion of the adjacent portion 22 in the axial direction also forms the outer peripheral surface of the case main body 12a. In the configuration shown in FIG. 2, the adjacent portion 22 is not exposed to the outside. In this configuration, one end portion in the axial direction of the overhanging portion 21b may protrude from the one end portion in the axial direction of the adjacent portion 22 in the axial direction. The distal end portion 21c of the protruding portion 21b protruding in the axial direction from the adjacent portion 22 is used as a portion into which the oil seal is fitted. For this reason, it can change to a double oil seal type easily by changing the axial direction length of the front-end | tip part 21c according to a customer's request. In addition, the axial direction edge part (part located in the axial direction outer side with respect to the pin groove 12d) of the adjacent part 22 is a part where the main bearing 26 is mounted.
 被取付部21において、先端部21cとは反対側の端部である後端部21dは、径方向の内側に突出し、隣接部22の軸方向端部に形成された係合溝に係止している。後端部21dが隣接部22の係合溝に係止されることにより、被取付部21は隣接部22に対して位置決めされる。 In the mounted portion 21, a rear end portion 21 d, which is an end portion on the opposite side to the front end portion 21 c, protrudes inward in the radial direction, and is engaged with an engagement groove formed at an axial end portion of the adjacent portion 22. ing. The attached portion 21 is positioned with respect to the adjacent portion 22 by the rear end portion 21 d being locked in the engaging groove of the adjacent portion 22.
