<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate lubrication in a recessed support for supporting a drive shaft of an oil pump even though a specific notch is not prepared in the recessed support arranged in a casing at the side of a torque converter. <P>SOLUTION: When the drive shaft 24 for driving the oil pump supported in the recessed support 20 via a bearing 21 projectingly arranged in the casing 4 at the side of the torque converter is rotated by a first sprocket 25 mounted to block the recessed support 20 at the side of the bearing 21 of the drive shaft 24 and a second sprocket 26 at a torque converter side via a chain 27 moving in lubricating oil, the operational notch B of a positioning member 22 which connects with the recessed support 20 and the outer and inner surface of the bearing 21 and positions the bearing 21 in the recessed support 20 is formed in the recessed support 20 so as to make the chain 27 face to a position side where the chain 27 starts to engage with the first sprocket 25 at an upper side of the first sprocket 25. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
