摘要： A restraint mechanism for limiting the movement of the flexible external gear of a flat strain wave gearing in the axial direction has a first restraining member installed in a floating state in a first recess and a second restraining member installed in a floating state in a second recess. The restraining member is able to limit the movement of the flexible external gear in the axial direction to a range in which there are no difficulties during actual use. Moreover, compared with when movement of the flexible external gear is limited using members that are disposed at fixed positions, it is possible to reduce the sliding abrasion that occurs between the flexible external gear and the first and second restraining members.

摘要： A transmission unit includes a transmission housing, a transmission element rotatably accommodated in the transmission housing, a bearing seat, and an angular contact ball bearing accommodated in the bearing seat, for mounting the transmission element, as well as a double-row angular contact ball bearing having: an inner bearing ring; a first inner concave rolling element raceway formed in an outer peripheral region of the inner bearing ring; a second inner concave rolling element raceway axially offset to the first inner rolling element raceway and formed in the outer peripheral region of the inner bearing ring; an outer bearing ring; a first outer concave rolling element raceway formed in an inner peripheral region of the outer bearing ring; a second outer concave rolling element raceway axially offset to the first outer rolling element raceway and formed in the outer bearing ring; a first ball-cage assembly with first balls which are accommodated in a first track space extending between the first inner rolling element raceway and the first outer rolling element raceway; and a second ball-cage assembly with second balls which are accommodated in a second track space extending between the second inner rolling element track and the second outer rolling element track. In this way, the central tracks of the two ball-cage assemblies adopt certain axial and radial relative positions.

摘要： A torque transmission device for a powertrain of a motor vehicle has an input area and an output area. A torque path runs from the input area to the output area. A torsional vibration damping unit is positioned first, followed by a gear unit, along the torque path between the input area and the output area. The torsional vibration damping unit provides a first spatial area and an adjoining second spatial area along the torque path, and the gear unit provides an adjoining third spatial area.

摘要： A power steering device includes a bearing configured to rotatably support the tip side of a worm shaft, the gear case housing the worm shaft and a holder housed in a housing hole provided in the gear case and configured to house the second bearing. The holder includes the first holder having a holding part configured to hold the outer periphery of the bearing and the opening part configured to expose a part of the outer periphery of the bearing, the second holder having a guide part configured to guide a movement of the bearing toward a worm wheel as the outer periphery of the bearing comes into contact with the guide part through the opening part and a spring configured to bias the bearing toward the worm wheel via the first holder.

摘要： An axle assembly with a carrier housing, an input pinion and a ring gear. The input pinion includes pinion gear teeth and is supported for rotation about a first axis relative to the carrier housing via first and second bearings that are disposed along the first axis on opposite sides of the pinion gear teeth. The ring gear includes ring gear teeth that are meshed to the pinion gear teeth and a third bearing supports the ring gear for rotation about the second axis relative to the carrier housing. The third bearing is disposed along the second axis on a side of the ring gear that is opposite the first axis.

摘要： An electromechanical power steering system having an electric servo motor having a motor shaft. The electric servo motor drives a shaft which meshes with a helical wheel. The shaft is rotatably supported in a gear mechanism housing. The motor shaft is coupled to the shaft in a rotationally secure manner by a coupling which compensates for an axial offset. The shaft at the end thereof close to the motor is supported in a bearing in the gear mechanism housing so as to be able to be rotated about a rotation axis and is pivotably supported about a pivot axis which is perpendicular to the rotation axis in such a manner that the pivot axis is arranged in the region of the coupling.

摘要： An axle assembly having a spigot bearing assembly. The spigot bearing assembly may extend between a motor housing and a rotor output flange that may be fixedly mounted to a rotor. The spigot bearing assembly may rotatably support the rotor output flange and may inhibit deflection of the rotor. A spigot bearing biasing member may exert a biasing force on the spigot bearing assembly.

摘要： A lubrication structure of a power transmission device includes a housing, a bearing, a baffle, and an additional lubricating oil supply mechanism. A driven gear is to be housed in the housing. The bearing is provided in the housing to rotatably support the driven gear. The baffle is provided in the housing above the bearing in a height direction of the power transmission device. The baffle includes a tubular oil supply passage and a lubricating oil receiver. Lubricating oil is supplied to the bearing via the tubular oil supply passage. The lubricating oil receiver is connected to and is provided above the tubular oil supply passage in the height direction to receive lubricating oil splashed by the driven gear in order to supply the received lubricating oil to the tubular oil supply passage. The additional lubricating oil supply mechanism is to supply lubricating oil to the tubular oil supply passage.

摘要： A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift control circuit operates a shift actuator using a first opposing pulse command and a first actuating pulse command, and releases pressure with shift actuating and opposing volumes of the shift actuator upon determining a shift completion event.
