With the above configuration, when the engine is operated and the power shaft 1 rotates, the power shaft 1
The input-side rotary body 3 also rotates integrally with the viscous fluid chamber 10, but at this time, the viscous fluid in the viscous fluid chamber 10 moves from the inner circumferential end of the thick portion of the rotary plate portion 5 to the outer circumferential end along the viscous guide path 6. This causes internal circulation of the viscous fluid within the viscous fluid chamber 10, and the viscous fluid is cooled by this internal circulation. Due to the viscous resistance of the viscous fluid between the viscous friction rotating surface 5a and the viscous friction rotating surface 11a and between the viscous friction rotating surface 5a' and the viscous friction rotating surface 12a, the torque of the input side rotating body 3 is The torque is transmitted to the torque transmission plates 11 and 12,
Furthermore, the torque transmitted to these torque transmission plates 11 and 12 is transmitted to the torque transmission cylinder 13 and the second member 7b. The torque transmitted from the input side rotating body 3 to the output side rotating body 7 via the viscous joint B in this way is transmitted to the output shaft 23 via the friction clutch 22, and further from the output shaft 23 to a gear shift (not shown). The signal is transmitted sequentially through the motor and differential gear.

When sudden fluctuations in rotation or torque occur in the engine, the fluctuations are relaxed and attenuated by the viscous joint B, and are transmitted to the output rotating body 7 as smooth rotation and torque fluctuations. Then, while the rotation speed of the output side rotating body 7 is low, each wedge member 1
6 is positioned radially inward by the action of the tension spring 17, so that each torque transmission plate 11,1
2 is located at a relatively large distance from each viscous friction rotating surface 5a, 5a' due to the elastic force of each elastic spring 19, 19', and the torque transmission rate due to viscous resistance of the viscous fluid is kept relatively small. Furthermore, as the rotational speed of the output rotary body 7 increases, each wedge member 16 moves radially outward against the tensile force of the tension spring 17 due to centrifugal action, and accordingly, the torque transmission plate 12 By pressing and moving the restraining members 14 in the direction away from each other, each torque transmission plate 11, 12 resists the elastic force of each elastic spring 19, 19', and moves each viscous friction rotating surface 5a. , 5a', and as a result, the torque transmission rate due to the viscous resistance of the viscous fluid increases. Therefore, in the low rotation speed range where engine torque fluctuations are a particular problem, it is highly effective in preventing vibrations inside and outside the power transmission system caused by sudden torque fluctuations, and in the high rotation speed range. can ensure high power transmission rate.

As described above, the automotive power transmission device of the present invention is an automotive power transmission device that transmits the torque of the power shaft of the engine to the output shaft side through the flywheel and the friction clutch in sequence, and the flywheel includes: an input-side rotary body that rotates integrally with the power shaft, and is fitted and supported by the input-side rotary body so as to be relatively rotatable so as to cooperate with the input-side rotary body to define a viscous fluid chamber; The friction clutch is composed of an output rotating body integrally connected to the friction clutch, and a viscous joint that transmits the torque of the input rotating body to the output rotating body within the viscous fluid chamber through viscous resistance of the viscous fluid. The viscous joint includes a rotating plate portion having a first viscous friction rotating surface located in the viscous fluid chamber and rotating together with the input side rotating body, and a rotating plate portion having a first viscous friction rotating surface located in the viscous fluid chamber, and a rotating plate portion having a first viscous friction rotating surface located in the viscous fluid chamber. and a second viscous friction rotating surface facing each other, and an annular torque transmission device including a torque transmission rate changing mechanism that reduces the interval as the rotational speed of the power shaft increases, and the output The side rotating body is composed of two members detachably connected to each other so that the rotary plate part and the torque transmission device can be inserted into the viscous fluid chamber, and one of the members faces the viscous fluid chamber. Since the outer circumferential surface of the torque transmission device is spline-fitted to the inner circumferential surface, even if sudden fluctuations in rotation or torque occur in the engine, the fluctuations are effectively damped by the viscous joint, and the friction clutch and output are effectively damped. It is not directly transmitted to the shaft side, and therefore it is possible to avoid a reduction in the life of the friction clutch and occurrence of vehicle body vibration due to the above fluctuations. In particular, by specially providing the above-mentioned torque transmission rate changing mechanism, the torque transmission rate can be lowered in the low rotation range where the engine torque fluctuations are large, and the torque fluctuations can be effectively absorbed. In high rotation ranges where this is not a serious problem, it is possible to increase the torque transmission rate and reduce power transmission loss due to viscous joints. In addition, the viscous joint can effectively dampen the shock caused by the operation of the friction clutch when starting or changing gears of an automobile, and therefore can greatly contribute to improving riding comfort. In addition, the above flywheel has a built-in viscous joint and is integrally connected with a relatively heavy friction clutch, so that sufficient inertial mass can be obtained without the need for a special large weight. Furthermore, since the flywheel itself can be used as the casing of the viscous joint, the joint structure becomes simpler and costs can be reduced. Further, the output rotating body of the flywheel is composed of the two separable members, and the outer circumferential surface of the annular torque transmission device of the viscous joint is spline-fitted to the inner circumferential surface of one of the members facing the viscous fluid chamber. As a result, the torque transmission device, which has a relatively complicated structure and includes the torque transmission rate changing mechanism, can be easily retrofitted to the output rotating body, improving the ease of assembling the device. can contribute to

1 The torque of the power shaft 1 of the engine is transferred to the output shaft 2 through the flywheel A and the friction clutch 22 in sequence.
An automotive power transmission device that transmits power to three sides,
The flywheel A includes an input rotating body 3 that rotates integrally with the power shaft 1, and a rotary body 3 that is opposed to the input rotating body 3 to cooperate with the input rotating body 3 to define a viscous fluid chamber 10. The output side rotating body 7 is rotatably fitted and supported and is integrally connected to the friction clutch 22, and the torque of the input side rotating body 3 is controlled by the viscous resistance of the viscous fluid within the viscous fluid chamber 10. and a viscous joint B that transmits the transmission to the output side rotary body 7, and this viscous joint B has first viscous friction rotation surfaces 5a and 5a' located in the viscous fluid chamber 10 and is connected to the input side. a rotating plate portion 5 that rotates together with the rotating body 3; and a second viscous friction rotating surface 11 that faces the first viscous friction rotating surfaces 5a, 5a' with a gap in the viscous fluid chamber 10.
a, 12a, and an annular torque transmission device T including a torque transmission rate changing mechanism 15 that reduces the interval as the rotational speed of the power shaft 1 increases, and the output side rotating body 7 The rotary plate portion 5 and the torque transmission device T are provided in the viscous fluid chamber 10.
It is composed of two members 7a and 7b that are removably connected to each other so that the torque transmitting device T can be loaded therein, and the outer peripheral surface of the torque transmitting device T is formed on the inner peripheral surface of one of the members 7b facing the viscous fluid chamber 10.
