AI Technical Summary
Vibrations generated by the planetary gear mechanism in electric vehicle drive units are transmitted to the vehicle body, significantly impacting vehicle vibrations due to a short transmission distance between the ring gear and the case.
The connection portion between the ring gear and the case is positioned such that it is not located between the center of rotation of the planetary gear mechanism and the boundary between the mounting member and the case, incorporating a toothless portion or a fastening structure that avoids direct alignment, thereby increasing the vibration transmission distance.
This configuration reduces the impact of the planetary gear mechanism on vehicle vibrations by elongating the vibration transmission path, while maintaining support performance for the pinion gears during revolution.
