Abstract: A carrier is provided with a first and a second oil passage. The first oil passage is formed so as to communicate a first side surface opening that is open to a first carrier side surface with a first outer peripheral opening that is open to an outer peripheral shaft surface, and the second oil passage is formed so as to communicate a second side surface opening that is open to a second carrier side surface with a second outer peripheral opening that is open to the outer peripheral shaft surface. A first oil receiving portion is formed so as to guide oil supplied from an inner side in a carrier radial direction to the first side surface opening, and a second oil receiving portion is formed so as to guide the oil supplied from the inner side in the carrier radial direction to the second side surface opening.

Abstract: A first rotating element is a first sun gear that rotates with a rotor. A third rotating element is a first ring gear connected to a case. A fourth rotating element is a second ring gear that rotates with an input element. A second rotating element is a first carrier rotatably supporting a first pinion gear and a second pinion gear that rotate together. The first pinion gear meshes with the first sun gear and the first ring gear. The second pinion gear has a smaller diameter than the first pinion gear and meshes with the second ring gear. The first sun gear is supported in a radial direction with respect to the case via a first support bearing. The second ring gear and the input element are connected such that their relative movement in the radial direction is restricted.

Abstract: A rotary electric machine, a transmission, and a differential gear device are disposed coaxially. The transmission includes a first helical gear and a second helical gear that meshes with the first helical gear. A case includes a first case member including a stator support portion that supports a stator of the rotary electric machine, a second case member that is structured as a separate member from the first case member and forms a gear chamber that houses the transmission and the differential gear device, and a support member that supports the first helical gear in an axial direction. The support member rotatably supports a rotor of the rotary electric machine via a rotor bearing, and is fixed to the second case member.

Abstract: A planetary carrier where the second pinion gears are disposed so as to be at least partially located in the spaces between the adjacent bridge portions, an outer peripheral surface of each of the bridge portions is provided with a spline onto which a friction engagement plate constituting a friction engagement element is fitted, an inner peripheral surface of each of the bridge portions is provided with a pair of wall portions that extend in the axial direction along side edges on both sides of each of the bridge portions and protrude radially inward, and each of the bridge portions is provided with a plurality of oil holes through which an inside and an outside of each of the bridge portions communicate with each other.

Abstract: A transmission device that includes a flange provided with first exposing portions and second exposing portions arranged alternately with each other, and is also provided with a plurality of bridges, the first and second exposing portions exposing at least part of the shaft recesses and the outer peripheral portions of the pinion shafts inserted into the shaft support holes, and also exposing the crimp receiving portions of the planetary carrier, and the bridges connecting portions between the adjacent first and second exposing portions on an inner peripheral side of either of the first and second exposing portions.

Abstract: A carrier having short pinion gears and long pinion gears is made compact, and the mountability of the carrier on vehicles is improved. In a structure of the carrier, short pinion gear housing spaces are formed between thick-walled portions of a carrier body and a carrier cover, and long pinion gear housing spaces are formed between flange portions and the carrier cover. Bridge portions are provided on the radially outer side of the short pinion gear housing spaces, and fixed to the carrier cover. Openings are provided on the radially outer side of the long pinion gear housing spaces. Splines to be engaged with a friction member of a clutch are formed on the outer peripheral surfaces of the bridge portions.

Abstract: A power transmission device, including a transmission, a case member, a bearing, a counter drive gear that is coupled to an output member of the transmission, that is rotatably supported by the case member via the bearing, and that is formed by a helical gear, and a counter driven gear that meshes with the counter drive gear so that a resultant force of a radially inward force and a force in one direction in an axial direction is applied to the counter drive gear during forward traveling of a vehicle.
