Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A multi-stage planetary roller power transmission device includes a high-speed power transmission mechanism including a first sun shaft, a first fixed ring, first planetary rollers disposed between the first sun shaft and the first fixed ring with a first negative clearance, first support shafts, and an annular first carrier into which the first support shafts are press-fitted; and a low-speed power transmission mechanism including a second sun shaft, a second fixed ring, second planetary rollers disposed between the second sun shaft and the second fixed ring with a second negative clearance, second support shafts, and an annular second carrier into which the second support shafts are press-fitted. A clearance amount of the first negative clearance and a clearance amount of the second negative clearance are equal to each other, and the number of the first planetary rollers is smaller than the number of the second planetary rollers.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A multi-stage planetary roller power transmission device comprising: a high-speed power transmission mechanism including a first sun shaft rotatable about an axis thereof, a first fixed ring disposed radially outward of the first sun shaft so as to be concentric with the first sun shaft, a plurality of first planetary rollers disposed between the first sun shaft and the first fixed ring with a first negative clearance, a plurality of first support shafts configured to respectively support the first planetary rollers such that the first planetary rollers are rotatable, and a first carrier into which the first support shafts are press-fitted, the first carrier being configured to rotate in conjunction with revolution of the first planetary rollers, and the first carrier having an annular shape; and a low-speed power transmission mechanism including a second sun shaft rotatable about an axis thereof at a lower speed than a speed at which the first sun shaft rotates, a second fixed ring disposed radially outward of the second sun shaft so as to be concentric with the second sun shaft, a plurality of second planetary rollers disposed between the second sun shaft and the second fixed ring with a second negative clearance, a plurality of second support shafts configured to respectively support the second planetary rollers such that the second planetary rollers are rotatable, and a second carrier into which the second support shafts are press-fitted, the second carrier being configured to rotate in conjunction with revolution of the second planetary rollers, and the second carrier having an annular shape, wherein a clearance amount of the first negative clearance and a clearance amount of the second negative clearance are equal to each other, and the number of the first planetary rollers is smaller than the number of the second planetary rollers. 2. The multi-stage planetary roller power transmission device according to claim 1 , wherein: the first carrier and the second carrier are identical members; and each of the identical members has a plurality of holes into which the first support shafts arranged at equal intervals in a circumferential direction are allowed to be press-fitted, and into which the second support shafts arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction are allowed to be press-fitted.
