<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oil level adjusting device for adjusting an oil level of stored lubricating oil with a simple structure without enlarging the device. <P>SOLUTION: The oil level adjusting device 10 for adjusting the oil level of the stored lubricating oil is provided with a rotating member 20 rotatably arranged around a rotating shaft 21 and having variable rotation speed; a cam member 41 arranged in an outer peripheral region 20a of the rotating member 20 to be moved forward/backward and energized to be moved backward from the outer peripheral region 20a by a spring 42 for a cam; and a lifting unit 30 lowering the oil level of the lubricating oil by lifting a float member 34 having at least a part thereof immersed into the lubricating oil when the cam member 41 is moved forward against the energizing force of the spring 42 for the cam by centrifugal force generated by rotation of the rotating member 20, and raising the oil level of the lubricating oil by lowering the float member 34 when the cam member 41 is moved backward by the energizing force of the spring 42 for the cam. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
