  • the tapered roller bearing includes an inner race attached to the carrier, an outer race attached to the case, a plurality of tapered rollers disposed between the inner race and the outer race, and an inner race. It is disposed between the race and the outer race, and is provided with a ring-shaped retainer that maintains the interval between the adjacent tapered rollers.
  • the small diameter portion of the tapered roller is located closer to the bearing center shaft than the large diameter portion of the tapered roller. More precisely, the center of the small diameter portion of the tapered roller is located closer to the bearing center shaft than the center of the large diameter portion of the tapered roller.
  • the retainer is made of a material having lower rigidity than the carrier and the case. Further, the retainer is provided with a carrier contact surface and a case contact surface at the end of the larger diameter. The carrier contact surface is in contact with the carrier in the bearing central axis direction. The case contact surface contacts the case in a direction orthogonal to the bearing central axis.
  • the retainer regulates the movement of the tapered roller (roller) to the outside (direction away from the bearing center axis) by contacting both the case and the carrier. Since the end surface of the roller does not contact other parts (ribs), wear of the end surface of the roller can be suppressed. As a result, the deterioration of the tapered roller bearing can be suppressed.
  • the retainer need not always be in contact with both the case and the carrier. While the gear transmission is stationary, the retainers (case contact surface and carrier contact surface) may be separated from the case and the carrier. The retainer may be in contact with both the case and the carrier when a force is applied to the roller to move the roller outward while the gear transmission is being driven. Further, the above gear transmission has various advantages in addition to the advantage of suppressing the wear of the end face of the roller. Some of these advantages are described below.
  • the rotation speed of the retainer can be made close to the rotation speed when the retainer does not contact either the case or the carrier. For example, when the retainer contacts only the carrier, friction is generated between the retainer and the carrier, so that the rotational speed of the retainer is slow and the moving speed of the roller is slow. Since the sliding of the roller becomes large, the peripheral surface of the roller is easily worn. If the retainer comes into contact with both the carrier and the case, the sliding of the roller can be reduced, so that wear on the peripheral surface of the roller can be suppressed.
  • the retainer is formed of a material having lower rigidity than the carrier and the case, the retainer uniformly contacts the carrier and the case in the circumferential direction.
  • An example of the retainer material is a resin.
  • the inner race and / or outer race can be easily processed.
  • ribs are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the inner race and / or the inner peripheral surface of the outer race, it is necessary to polish the surface of the rib (contact surface with the roller). Since the gear transmission does not have a rib for restricting the movement of the roller in the axial direction, the processing cost of the inner race and / or the outer race can be reduced.
  • the length of the roller in the axial direction can be increased by the amount that the rib is not formed. Thereby, the capacity

That is, even if a rib is provided in the second region 46e and / or the fourth region 40e, a large friction does not occur between the rib and the second end surface 42b.
  • the tapered roller bearing 2 is not provided with ribs in the first region 46 d of the inner race 46 and the third region 40 d of the outer race 40. That is, the tapered roller bearing 2 does not have a rib that is essential for restricting the movement of the roller in the conventional tapered roller bearing.
  • the surface of the rib In the prior art, in order to reduce friction between the rib and the end face of the roller, the surface of the rib must be polished. Therefore, the process which grind
  • the gear transmission 100 can reduce the processing cost of the inner race and the outer race as compared with the conventional case.
  • the length in the axial direction of the roller 42 can be increased by the amount not having the rib, and the rolling surface of the roller 42 can be widened.
  • the capacity (load load) of the tapered roller bearing 2 can be increased. That is, the gear transmission 100 can increase the capacity of the main bearing as compared with the conventional one without increasing the size of the main bearing (the tapered roller bearing 2).
  • FIG. 6 is a view for explaining the operation of the roller 42 and the retainer 44 when the carrier 10 rotates with respect to the stationary case 4.
  • FIG. 6 is a view for explaining the concept of the operation of the roller 42 and the retainer 44, and does not accurately represent the structure of the gear transmission 100.
  • the inner race 46 of the tapered roller bearing 2 is integrated with the carrier 10.
  • the outer race 40 is integrated with the case 4. Therefore, in FIG. 6, the inner race 46 and the carrier 10 are shown as one part, and the outer race 40 and the case 4 are shown as one part.
  • the roller 42 shown in FIG. 6 shows the cross section orthogonal to a rotating shaft direction.
  • the roller 42 moves in the arrow A3 direction while rotating in the arrow A2 direction. That is, the roller 42 moves in the arrow A3 direction while rolling on the outer peripheral surface of the carrier 10 and the inner peripheral surface of the case 4.
  • the retainer 44 rotates in the arrow A3 direction as the roller 42 moves. In this case, if the friction between the roller 42 and the carrier 10 and the case 4 is small, the retainer 44 rotates at approximately half the rotation speed V of the carrier 10 (rotation speed 0.5 V). When the friction between the roller 42 and the carrier 10 increases, the speed of the roller 42 approaches the speed of the carrier 10. On the contrary, when the friction between the roller 42 and the case 4 increases, the speed of the roller 42 approaches the speed (zero) of the case 4.
  • the first end 44a of the retainer 44 contacts both the case 4 and the carrier 10 (see also FIG. 2).
  • a frictional force F1 is generated between the retainer 44 and the case 4 in the arrow A4 direction.
  • a frictional force F2 is generated between the retainer 44 and the carrier 10 in the direction of arrow A5. Since the contact area W1 between the retainer 44 and the case 4 is substantially equal to the contact area W2 between the retainer 44 and the carrier 10, the frictional force F1 and the frictional force F2 are substantially equal.
  • the frictional force F1 and the frictional force F2 cancel each other, and the retainer 44 rotates in the arrow A3 direction at a speed close to the rotational speed of 0.5V.
  • the roller 42 also moves in the arrow A3 direction at a speed close to the rotational speed 0.5V.
  • the fact that the roller 42 moves at a speed close to the rotation speed 0.5V means that the friction of the roller 42 with respect to the carrier 10 and the case 4 is small. In other words, the sliding of the roller 42 with respect to the carrier 10 and the case 4 is small. Therefore, wear of the outer peripheral surface (rolling surface) of the roller 42 is suppressed.
  • the retainer 44 is brought into contact with only the case 4, only the frictional force corresponding to the frictional force F1 in FIG. 6 is generated, and the frictional force corresponding to the frictional force F2 cannot be obtained. Therefore, the rotation speed of the retainer 44 is slowed down, and the friction of the roller 42 against the case 4 is increased.
  • the gear transmission 100 shown in the present embodiment can suppress wear of the roller 42 while restricting movement of the roller 42 in the axial direction by bringing the retainer 44 into contact with both the carrier 10 and the case 4. .
  • the tapered roller bearing 2 arranged between the case 4 and the first plate 10a has the same characteristics as the tapered roller bearing 2 arranged between the case 4 and the second plate 10c. Therefore, the description about the tapered roller bearing 2 arrange
  • the contact surface between the retainer 44 and the case 4 is a cylindrical surface concentric with the axis 30.
  • the contact surface between the retainer 44 and the carrier 10 is orthogonal to the axis 30.
  • the retainer 44 contacts both the case 4 and the carrier 10. For this reason, the retainer 44 can prevent foreign matter from entering the case 4 from the outside of the gear transmission 100. Further, an outer peripheral groove 44f is formed on the contact surface (case contact surface 44d) of the case 4 and the retainer 44, and an end surface groove 44g is formed on the contact surface (carrier contact surface 44e) of the carrier 10 and the retainer 44. Therefore, even if the retainer 44 contacts both the case 4 and the carrier 10, the lubricant present outside the tapered roller bearing 2 can be introduced into the tapered roller bearing 2. It is possible to prevent the lubricant in the tapered roller bearing 2 from being depleted (out of oil).
  • the retainer 44 When a force to move the roller 42 outward acts on the roller 42, the retainer 44 is pressed against the case 4 and the carrier 10.
  • the retainer 44 is made of resin, and the case 4 and the carrier 10 are made of metal. That is, the rigidity of the retainer 44 is lower than the rigidity of the case 4 and the carrier 10. Therefore, when the retainer 44 is pressed against the case 4 and the carrier 10, the retainer 44 is deformed, and the entire circumferential direction of the retainer 44 contacts the case 4 and the carrier 10 uniformly. That is, it is difficult to form a gap between the case contact surface 44 d and the case 4 and between the carrier contact surface 44 e and the carrier 10.
  • the oil seal 6 is disposed between the case 4 and the first plate 10a, and a groove 26 is provided at a position facing the second plate 10c of the case 4 (see FIG. 1).

  • the oil seal 6 and the O-ring can prevent the lubricant sealed in the gear transmission 100 from leaking out of the gear transmission 100.
  • the lubricant present in the vicinity of the oil seal 6 can be introduced into the tapered roller bearing 2 through the outer peripheral groove 44f and the end face groove 44g.

  • the retainer 144 of this embodiment is different from the retainer 44 in the positional relationship between the outer peripheral groove formed on the case contact surface and the end surface groove formed on the carrier contact surface.
  • Features common to the retainer 144 and the retainer 44 may be omitted by giving the same number.
  • the outer circumferential groove 44f and the end surface groove 44g are formed at the same position. Therefore, the outer peripheral groove 44f and the end face groove 44g are continuous.
  • the lubricant existing outside the tapered roller bearing 2 is introduced into the tapered roller bearing 2 through the outer circumferential groove 44f and the end surface groove 44g. By using the retainer 144, the lubricant can be more easily introduced into the tapered roller bearing 2.
  • the gear transmission of the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
  • the gear transmission of this embodiment is different from the gear transmission 100 only in the shape of the retainer.
  • the retainer 244 of this embodiment is different from the retainer 44 in the shape of the outer peripheral groove formed on the case contact surface and the shape of the end surface groove formed on the carrier contact surface.
  • Features common to the retainer 244 and the retainer 44 may be omitted from description because the same or the last two digits are given the same number.
  • a plurality of end surface grooves 244g are formed in the carrier contact surface 244e.
  • the direction in which the end surface groove 244g extends has an angle with respect to a straight line connecting the outer peripheral surface (case contact surface 244d) of the retainer 244 and the bearing center axis 30 ( See FIG. 4 for comparison).
