PURPOSE:To improve lubricating performance in a differential case, in a differential gear with built-in speedometer major and minor gears, by providing vanes for scraping up lubricating oil to the minor gear. CONSTITUTION:In a differential gear of a front engine-front wheel drive car, driving power of a main driving shaft in a transmission is transmitted to a differential case 3 through a ring gear 2. Then side gears 5, 6 are rotated by pinion gears 4a, 4b on a pinion shaft 9 integrally formed with the case 3 to rotate left and right driving shafts 10, 11. While here a car speed is detected through a car speed detector unit consisting of a speedometer major gear 12 fitted to the case 3 and a speedometer minor gear 13 meshed to said gear 12. Here vanes 14 are integrally formed with said gear 13 to enable the scoop of lubricating oil accumulated in the bottom part of a housing 1.

There was a problem in that it was difficult to ensure sufficient performance.
