Abstract

An air-cooled, in-wheel motor drive device (21) is provided with a lubricating oil circuit which is configured in such a manner that a lubricating oil which is discharged from a lubricating oil pump (51) lubricates a reduction section (B) by flowing and circulating through oil paths (54, 55, 56) which are connected to each other and are provided in a casing (22), an oil path (57) which is provided in a motor's rotating shaft, an oil path (58) which is provided in the reduction section's input shaft, and the inside of the reduction section (B), and that the lubricating oil which flows through the oil paths (54, 55, 56), which are provided in the casing, and is cooled by outer peripheral fins (22f) cools a motor section (A) and the reduction section (B).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an in-wheel motor drive device used as a power source of a vehicle, in which a rotating shaft of a motor is connected to a hub of a wheel via a reduction gear. Background technique [0002] A conventional in-wheel motor driving device is described in, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2009-63043 (Patent Document 1). The in-wheel motor drive device described in Patent Document 1 includes a motor unit, a deceleration unit, a wheel hub, and a deceleration unit lubricating mechanism for supplying lubricating oil to the deceleration unit. In addition, a cooling water channel and a radiator are provided in the casing of the motor unit. In addition, the motor unit is cooled by flowing cooling water through the cooling water passage.
