A first hydraulic pump and a second hydraulic pump are respectively mounted to both ends of a rotary shaft in an electric motor, whereby it is possible to drive both of the first hydraulic pump and the second hydraulic pump by one electric motor. Since the electric motor is driven and controlled so as to have any higher rotational speed among a rotational speed of the first hydraulic pump for obtaining an amount of working fluid required in a hydraulic control circuit for a power steering apparatus and a rotational speed of the second hydraulic pump for obtaining an amount of working fluid required in a hydraulic control circuit for a power train by a hydraulic pump drive controlling portion, it is possible to necessarily and sufficiently secure the working fluids respectively required in the power steering hydraulic control circuit and the power train hydraulic control circuit which are independent from each other, by a little electric power consumption.

A lubricating apparatus, for a friction engagement element that engages a rotatable member with a case includes a hub connected to the rotatable member, friction members disposed between the hub and the case, a hydraulic servo for engaging the friction members, and an oil passage for supplying lubricant from the case to the friction members. A discharge opening of the oil passage is formed at a position which is radially inward of the friction members and which is axially to a side of the friction members. The discharge opening is directed toward the friction members. A weir member for restricting escape of lubricant in the axial direction through a gap between the hub and the friction members is provided at the other axial side of the friction members. Therefore, the axial escape of lubricant exiting the friction members can be prevented by a non-contact leakage restriction that does not cause drag resistance. The radially outward stream of oil between the friction members is secured, and the friction members can be reliably cooled to remove heat generated by slip control of the friction engagement element.

A hybrid drive system comprising: a torque amplify mechanism coupled to an output member of an internal combustion engine and an output member of an electric motor, as energized by an electric power to output a torque, for amplifying and outputting the torque, as outputted from the internal combustion engine, by controlling the torque of the electric motor; and a continuously variable transmission arranged between torque amplify mechanism and the output shaft for increasing/decreasing and outputting the torque inputted from the torque amplify mechanism. Further comprised is a forward/backward switching mechanism between the torque amplify mechanism and the output shaft for setting a forward state, in which the inputted motive power is unreversed and outputted, and a backward state in which the inputted motive power is reversed and outputted. As a result, the reverse run can be made only with the motive power outputted from the internal combustion engine.

A transmission including composite planetary gears supported by a carrier such that the planetary gears are arranged around an axis of the carrier, each planetary gear consisting of a large and a small pinion which mesh with a first and a second gear, respectively, and which have a ratio Zp.sub.1 /Zp.sub.2 equal to an integer not smaller than 2, wherein Zp.sub.1 and Zp.sub.2 represent numbers of teeth of the large and small pinions, respectively. The transmission is assembled by assembling the common second gear and the carrier supporting the planetary gears, such that the small pinion of each composite planetary gear meshes with the common second gear, and assembling the common first gear and the carrier such that the large pinion of each planetary gear supported by the carrier meshes with the common first gear.

A torsional damper type flywheel device includes drive side and driven side flywheels, a first spring mechanism connecting the drive side and driven side flywheels, a second spring mechanism which may include an air cushion spring, and a viscous damping mechanism arranged in series with the second spring mechanism. The series combination of the second spring mechanism and the viscous damping mechanism is arranged parallel to the first spring mechanism and connects the drive side and driven side flywheels. This flywheel device continuously changes its vibrational bahavior between two characteristics due to the action of the viscous damping mechanism. Due to the vibrational behavior change, no notable resonance occurs when the rotational speed passes through the resonance speed of the flywheel device. A continuously sliding friction mechanism is not used.

An apparatus for absorbing torque vibration comprises inertial bodies comprising first and second flywheels, and a damper mechanism, torque limiting mechanism and hysteresis mechanism interposed between the first and second flywheels.The rotation is transmitted between both flywheels via damper mechanism, torque limiting mechanism and hysteresis mechanism. Resilient members are secured to spring seats, which are engaged with both ends of a spring of the damper mechanism, at an inner-half portion of the spring seat closer to the axis of said flywheels than an axial line of the spring. Excess compression of the resilient members is prevented.
摘要:
Amplitude of transmission error of tooth pair of a gear is obtained in relation to actual contact ratio (.epsilon..sub.r) which is an angular range (.theta..sub.r) of actual contact of the surfaces of the tooth pair divided by an angular pitch (.theta..sub.p) of the gear. The specifications and/or tooth surface modification of the gear is/are are determined so as to reduce the transmission error amplitude under non-load condition in which the actual contact ratio (.epsilon..sub.r) is 1.0. Alternatively, the specifications and/or tooth surface modifications is/are determined so as to increase an effective contact ratio (.epsilon..sub.n) which is an angular range (.theta..sub.n) divided by the angular pitch (.theta..sub.p), the angular range (.theta..sub.n) corresponding to a portion of a path of the tooth contact point in which an edge contact of the tooth pair does not take place at the tooth top or at the ends of the face width of the teeth. These arrangements permit efficient and easy designing of a gear having a reduced noise, without simulations or tests.
