Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain such a structure that lubricating oil in a case hardly overflows when providing a lubricating port cap with breather structure. CONSTITUTION:A head portion 15b for covering the lubricating port 14 by contact from above to periphery of the lubricating port 14 and a trunk 15b inserted into the oiling inlet 14 are disposed. Protrusions 15c in ring form on periphery of the trunk portion 15b in contact with inner surface of the lubricating port 14, are formed in plurality at specific intervals along longitudinal direction of the trunk portion 15b. A cap 15 is integrally formed out of synthetic rubber or synthetic resin. Notches 15d are formed on periphery of respective protrusions 15c so that pairs of adjoining protrusions 15c are mutually different in phase. And a breathing portion 15e for communicating between inside and outside of the lubricating port 14 is formed in the head portion 15a.
