Lubrication system for countershaft brake

摘要

A simple arrangement (60) for lubricating a countershaft brake (58). A countershaft brake (58) is attached to an end of a countershaft (12) of a transmission (2), and a counter gear (16) is mounted on the countershaft (12) near the countershaft brake (58). An oil pool (62) is formed in a transmission housing (61) to immerse at least part of the gear (16) when the counter gear (16) is not rotating. A plate member (63) extends over the oil pool (62) for obstructing oil splashed up by rotations of the counter gear (16). An oil passage (64) is formed for introducing the oil obstructed by the plate member (63) to the countershaft brake (58).
