Abstract: In a transmission, a lubrication oil retention section is formed to surround an area around a circumferential part of a first gear that ranges from a lubrication oil storage region to the outside of the lubrication oil storage region. In the lubrication oil retention section, the lubrication oil scooped up by the rotation of the first gear is retained between the lubrication oil retention section and the first gear at the outside of the lubrication oil storage region. The lubrication oil retention section enables the first gear to splash the lubrication oil retained at the outside of the lubrication oil storage region, toward a receiver that flows the lubrication oil to various sliding parts of the transmission.

Abstract: In a transmission, a lubrication oil retention section is formed to surround an area around a circumferential part of a first gear that ranges from a lubrication oil storage region to the outside of the lubrication oil storage region. In the lubrication oil retention section, the lubrication oil scooped up by the rotation of the first gear is retained between the lubrication oil retention section and the first gear at the outside of the lubrication oil storage region. The lubrication oil retention section enables the first gear to splash the lubrication oil retained at the outside of the lubrication oil storage region, toward a receiver that flows the lubrication oil to various sliding parts of the transmission.

Abstract: In a transmission, a large-diameter gear included in a plurality of gears on rotatable shaft members is soaked at its lower part in lubrication oil contained in a lubrication oil storage region formed at a lower portion of a case and scoops up the lubrication oil when rotated. A receiver extending in the axial direction of the large-diameter gear collects the scooped-up lubrication oil and flows the collected lubrication oil toward lubrication portions. The receiver has a vertical wall which enables the lubrication oil scooped up and splashing above the receiver to collide therewith, to flow down on a surface thereof and to be introduced to a collecting portion of the receiver, and an introducing portion which enables the lubrication oil splashing toward between the receiver and the large-diameter gear to flow on a surface thereof and to be introduced to the collecting portion by the inertia force thereof.
