    摘要: A structure is achieved capable of ensuring excellent transmission efficiency while preventing the occurrence of gross slipping at traction portions.
    A pressing device 9 rotationally drives a cam disk 21 by a pressing force adjusting motor 23, which causes an annular roller element 6a of a pair of annular roller elements 6a, 6b to displace in the axial direction. A controller 31, by adjusting the rotational drive of the pressing force adjusting motor 23, adjusts the surface pressure at the traction portions between rolling surfaces 16 of planetary rollers 7 and an inner-diameter side rolling contact surface 5 of an input shaft 3 and outer-diameter side rolling contact surfaces 12a, 12b of the pair of annular roller elements 6a, 6b to a target value.

    摘要: A charger incorporated in a vehicle wheel supporting rolling bearing unit detects an output voltage of an electric generator and calculates a rotation speed of a hub. When a rotation speed of the hub is in a low speed state where a sensor and a wireless communication device are operated by electric power supplied 5 by a battery, a frequency of wireless communication performed between the wireless communication device and a calculator disposed on a vehicle body side is changed according to the rotation speed of the hub or a traveling speed of a vehicle.

    摘要: A friction roller-type reduction gear includes a sun roller concentric with an input shaft, a ring roller having a stationary ring roller element and a moveable ring roller element, intermediate rollers in rolling contact with an outer peripheral surface of the sun roller and an inner peripheral surface of the ring roller, a coupling part coupling the ring roller and the output shaft, and a loading cam mechanism having a cam ring for changing contact surface pressure of each rolling contact surface. The outer surface of the sun roller is a concave curved surface of which a shape of an outer edge in an axial cross-section is a single circular arc-shaped concave curve, and an outer surface of the intermediate roller is a convex curved surface of which a shape of an outer edge in an axial cross-section is a single circular arc-shaped convex curve.

    摘要: A pivot holder of a friction-roller-type reduction gear has a pair of bearing parts configured to support a rotational shaft of an intermediate roller and having a pivot axis at an eccentric position from a center of the rotational shaft, and a bridging part configured to integrally couple the pair of bearing parts. A carrier has a holder support part configured to rotatably support the bearing parts. An interaxial distance between a center of the pivot axis and the center of the rotational shaft is equal to or smaller than a maximum radius of an outer diameter of the intermediate roller, and the center of the pivot axis is located on an applying line of a torque reaction force of transmission torque to be applied to the pivot holder.

    摘要: A joint structure includes a shaft member and a cylindrical member. The cylindrical member includes a plurality of first crimped portions crimped along a plurality of axial grooves provided in an axial direction of the shaft member, respectively, and a second crimped portion which fits the axial grooves and is crimped along a circumferential groove, the circumferential groove being provided on a circumferential surface of the shaft member by reducing a diameter of an axially intermediate portion of the cylindrical member in a radial direction. Each of the first crimped portions project from an inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical member as a projection. A position of a tip of the projection in an axis direction of the projection is set displaced from a position of a lowest point of the circumferential groove such that the tip is not located at the lowest point of the circumferential groove.

    摘要: The frictional roller reducer has an input shaft, an output shaft, a pair of annular roller elements, a plurality of planetary rollers, a carrier, a pressing device, and a controller. The pressing device rotationally drives a cam disk by a pressing force adjusting motor, which causes an annular roller element of the pair of annular roller elements to displace in the axial direction. The controller, by adjusting the rotational drive of the pressing force adjusting motor, adjusts the surface pressure at the traction portions between rolling surfaces of the planetary rollers and an inner-diameter side rolling contact surface of the input shaft and outer-diameter side rolling contact surfaces of the pair of annular roller elements to a target value.

    摘要: A vehicle wheel supporting rolling bearing unit includes a stationary side bearing ring member, a rotation side bearing ring member, and plural rolling elements. The rotation side bearing ring member is provided with a first acceleration sensor, a second acceleration sensor, and a third acceleration sensor which are fixed on a virtual plane orthogonal to a center axis of the rotation side bearing ring member. The first acceleration sensor and the second acceleration sensor are arranged on a virtual line passing through a rotation center of the rotation side bearing ring member with a same distance from the rotation center while detection directions thereof are directed in a radial direction and are opposite to each other in the radial direction. The third acceleration sensor is arranged such that a detection direction thereof is non-parallel to the detection directions of the first acceleration sensor and the second acceleration sensor.
