Double planetary carrier

摘要

A double planetary carrier is constructed by providing separate carriers for carrying therein two sets of planet gears which are axially set apart from each other, and by connecting the two carriers together. A cylindrical portion is formed on a periphery of a side plate of one of the carriers to receive therein a side plate of the other carrier. Serrated teeth are formed respectively on a periphery of the side plate and on the cylindrical portion to connect the two carriers by means of serrations. The serrated teeth are formed so as to have a play therebetween. Between the side plates there are formed radially extending oil grooves to introduce lubricating oil into oil holes which are formed in gear shafts of the planet gears.
