Abstract

This air-cooled type in-wheel motor drive assembly 21 includes a lubrication oil circuit for lubricating a speed reduction unit B by allowing lubrication oil discharged from a lubrication oil pump 51 to flow through interconnected oil passages 54, 55, 56 provided to a casing 22, motor-rotary-shaft oil passage 57, speed-reduction-unit input-shaft oil passage 58 and interior of the speed reduction unit B, and for cooling a motor unit A and the speed reduction unit B with the lubrication oil cooled with the aid of outer fins 22f while flowing through the oil passages 54, 55, 56 provided to the casing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an in-wheel motor drive device used as a power source of a vehicle, in which a rotating shaft of a motor is connected to a hub of a wheel via a reduction gear. Background technique [0002] A conventional in-wheel motor driving device is described in, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2009-63043 (Patent Document 1). The in-wheel motor drive device described in Patent Document 1 includes a motor unit, a deceleration unit, a wheel hub, and a deceleration unit lubricating mechanism for supplying lubricating oil to the deceleration unit. In addition, a cooling water channel and a radiator are provided in the casing of the motor unit. In addition, the motor unit is cooled by flowing cooling water through the cooling water passage.
