Generally, in a bearing device for a rotating electrical machine for a vehicle, lubrication is achieved using base oil that oozes out from a certain amount of grease that is filled and held on both sides of the bearing. For this reason, the base oil of the grease is very important as a lubricant, but as the rotor rotates, this base oil gradually leaks to the outside from the gap in the labyrinth between the stationary side member and the rotor side member. In order to maintain good bearing lubrication performance over a long period of time, it is necessary to retain as much base oil as possible around the bearing, and this is extremely important in extending the maintenance return of the bearing. It's important.

Therefore, in a conventional bearing device for a rotating electric machine for a vehicle, as shown in FIG. In addition, the gap A in the labyrinth between the stator side members such as the mirror cover 5 and outer ring holder 6 and the rotor side collars 8 and 9 attached to the rotor shaft 7 is made smaller, and the structure of the labyrinth is complicated. I used to do things like that. However, rotating electric machines for vehicles have many dimensional restrictions, and there are limits to making the above-mentioned gap smaller or making the labyrinth part more complicated. There was a problem with the water flowing out and leaking outside as shown by the arrow. Furthermore, when the bearing conditions become severe, the temperature rises and the fluidity of the base oil 4 improves, resulting in a further problem of leakage.

This invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to prevent the base oil, which is important for lubrication, from leaking outside through the gap in the labyrinth, by placing it on the side of the bearing. By collecting the grease so that it can re-penetrate into the grease filling chamber and reusing it as lubricating oil, the base oil of the fixed amount of grease stored around the bearing can be effectively used to improve bearing lubrication performance. The goal is to provide products that can be maintained for a long period of time and extend the maintenance period.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the opposing sides in the labyrinth part between the stator side member and the rotor side member, that is, the inner circumferential surface of the mirror lid 5, the outer circumferential surface of the collar 8, and the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring retainer 6 An annular groove 1 extending in the circumferential direction is provided on the circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface of the collar 8, and is arranged substantially opposite to each other.
0 and 11 are formed respectively. Further, in the lower part of the axis of the mirror cover 5 and the outer ring holder 6 of the stator side member (in the vicinity directly below the rotor shaft 7), there is a groove extending from the inner peripheral side edge of the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 to the annular groove 10. A notched groove 12 is formed to widen the filling chamber 2, and a partition wall 13 is fixedly provided so as to extend from within the notched groove 12 into the lubricating grease filling chamber 2. A base oil reservoir space 14 is formed by partitioning the interior of the chamber 2 so that only the bottom surface is open and communicating with it, and the upper part of this base oil reservoir space 14 is partitioned from the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 by a partition wall 13 in the notched groove 12. It communicates with the bottom of the annular groove 10 through a base oil return flow path 15 configured. In addition,
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the partition wall 13 has a U-shaped cross section extending into the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 and is wider than the upper notch groove 12, so that the base oil reservoir space 14 is formed in this direction. The cross-sectional area is configured to be larger than that of the base oil return flow path 15 with which it communicates.

To describe the operation of the above embodiment of this invention, the base oil 4 of the grease 3 leaking from the labyrinth gap A in FIG. 2 enters the annular groove 11 or 10 as shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, a part of the flow path flows through the annular groove 10 on the stator side and an annular groove 11 on the rotor side, so that the return flow path of the cutout groove 12 on the lower side of the annular groove 10 on the stator side 15
guided by. A base oil reservoir space 1 is defined within the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 by a partition wall 13.
It will be collected on 4th. The base oil reservoir space 14
The recovered base oil 4 soaks into the grease 3 in the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 from its open bottom and is used as lubricating oil for the bearing 1 again.

Note that the base oil reservoir space 14 is partitioned by the partition wall 13 and communicates with the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 with only the bottom open, so that when filling the grease filling chamber 2 with grease, the grease 2 enters the base oil reservoir space. 14. The base oil does not penetrate deep into the interior and become full, and the necessary space is always secured, allowing for good recovery of base oil.

On the other hand, the base oil 4 leaking from the interval A is
The base oil reservoir space 14 is mixed with dust and carbon powder that have entered from the outside through the labyrinth part, and is contaminated with dirt.
From there, base oil 4
Since only the base oil 4 penetrates into the grease 3, the base oil 4 and the external impurities 16 can be separated as shown in FIG. Also, the base oil 4 is stored in the storage space 1.
Compared to the size of the flow path 15 entering 4, grease 3
A reservoir space 14 into which the base oil 4 permeates.
Since the area of the bottom of the grease filling chamber 2 is large, the base oil 4 is sufficiently circulated into the grease filling chamber 2 and does not overflow to the outside.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In this case, the base oil reservoir space 14A is defined in the lubricating grease filling chamber 2 only by the partition wall 13A without providing the second notched groove 12, and the upper part of the base oil reservoir space 14A and the bottom of the stator side annular groove 10 are separated. In this configuration, a base oil return passage 15A is provided by making a hole between them. In this way, the same base oil recovery effect as described above can be achieved, and since a part of the gap A in the labyrinth portion can be configured without being cut out, the dustproof effect and the leakage prevention effect of the base oil 4 can be further improved.

Since the present invention is made as detailed above, it is possible to collect the base oil separated from the grease leaking out from the labyrinth gaps on both sides of the bearing and return it to the grease filling chamber.
When recovering the base oil, it is possible to separate dust and carbon powder that have entered from the outside. As a result, base oil from grease can be retained around the bearing for a long period of time without complicating the structure of the labyrinths on both sides of the bearing, maintaining good lubrication performance of the bearing and also extending maintenance return times. It becomes something that can be achieved.
