Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to an input shaft of an automatic transmission,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an input shaft installed in an automatic transmission, and more particularly, to an input shaft of an automatic transmission in which sufficient oil can be supplied to a portion where lubrication is required.

As shown in Fig. 1, the automatic transmission includes a rotating element such as the torque converter 12, the gear assembly 14, the clutch assemblies 13 and 15, or a power interrupting component in the housing 11 And an input shaft 120 through which the power is input to the automatic transmission 10 is installed in the automatic transmission 10 at a center thereof to shift the rotational force input from the engine and output to the drive shaft.

The input shaft 120 has a circular hollow section 121 formed therein and an oil discharge hole 122 communicating with the hollow 121 and the outside of the input shaft 120 is connected to the input shaft 120. [ And one end of the input shaft 120 is connected to an oil pump 16 for supplying oil to the hollow portion 121 of the input shaft 120.

When the engine is driven to rotate the input shaft 120, the oil filled in the input shaft 120 is discharged to the oil discharge hole 122 by the centrifugal force, .

When the input shaft 120 rotates more than a predetermined number of revolutions, sufficient oil is discharged from the input shaft 120 to smoothly perform lubrication.

However, the input shaft 120 of the prior art has a circular inner cross section so that the centrifugal force due to the rotation of the input shaft 120 acts evenly on the inner side, and the oil discharge hole 121 is formed on the inner surface of the input shaft 120 When the rotation speed of the input shaft 120 is low, sufficient oil can not be supplied to the inside of the automatic transmission. For example, as to the axial direction of the input shaft 120, a sufficient amount of oil is discharged at a portion where the oil is supplied to the input shaft 120, but the oil flow rate decreases as the distance to the supplied portion increases. In the radial direction of the input shaft 120, oil is sufficiently supplied to a portion close to the input shaft 120 so that there is no problem in lubrication. However, as a portion separated from the input shaft 120, Is not sufficiently supplied.

In this way, if oil is not sufficiently supplied to a part of the interior of the automatic transmission 10, wear or breakage of components constituting the automatic transmission may occur.

On the other hand, the following prior art document discloses a technique relating to an " input shaft for an automatic transmission ".

7 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in Fig.

Hereinafter, the input shaft of the automatic transmission according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1, a conventional automatic transmission 10 is provided with a rotation element such as a torque converter 12, a gear assembly 14, a clutch assembly 13, 15, or the like, An element for interrupting the power is provided, and an input shaft 20 is provided at the center to shift the rotational force input from the engine and output to the drive shaft.

In the input shaft of the automatic transmission according to the present invention, a hollow portion 21 is formed to allow oil to flow therein. The hollow portion 21 has a polygonal cross-section.

Particularly, the cross section of the hollow portion 21 is formed in the form of an internal gear so that a plurality of grooves through which oil can flow are formed. A first interior angle in which the interior angle of the polygon is larger than a flat angle and a second interior angle smaller than a square angle are alternately formed and the groove is formed as a portion in which the second interior angle is formed.

4 to 5, the hollow section 21 has a polygonal cross section, and the internal angle of the polygon is alternately arranged between a first internal angle larger than the square angle and a second internal angle smaller than the square angle, Shape [*]. Since the flat angle is 180 degrees, the portion protruding toward the center of the hollow portion 21 is formed to have an internal angle larger than the flat angle, that is, a concave angle, and a concave portion toward the center of the hollow portion 21 is smaller And are arranged alternately with each other. In particular, the second internal angle is preferably formed at an acute angle. Here, the concave second internal angle becomes a groove in which the oil can flow along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20. [

The hollow shaft 21 communicates with the outside of the oil discharge hole 22 through an oil discharge hole 22 penetrating the input shaft 20 in a radial direction.

At this time, the oil discharge hole 22 is formed in a portion of the hollow 21 where the second internal angle is formed. This is to cause the oil to be discharged through the portion where the centrifugal force is concentrated when the input shaft 20 is rotated.

In addition, the oil discharge hole 22 is formed at a different portion from a second internal angle formed in the hollow portion 21 in plural.

For example, in FIGS. 5 to 7, the hollow portion 21 is formed in a star shape having seven first internal angles and a second internal angle, so that different oil discharge holes 22 are formed in each second internal angle do.

4, an oil discharge hole 22 is formed along the periphery of the input shaft 20, and each oil discharge hole 22 has a second internal angle &thetas; As shown in Fig. Each of the second internal angles is a groove formed along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20 so that the oil can flow along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20. [

Therefore, when the oil discharge holes 22 are formed in the respective second internal chambers, the oil can be supplied exclusively to the respective oil discharge holes 22.

The oil discharge hole 22 is formed along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20 in addition to the oil discharge hole 22 formed along the periphery of the input shaft 20. That is, the oil discharge hole 22 is formed at a position where the clutch assemblies 13 and 15 and the gear assembly 14, which require lubrication, are installed in the automatic transmission 10. Since the oil discharge hole 22 is disposed along the circumferential direction of the input shaft 20 and along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20, And forms a spiral at the shaft 20.

On the other hand, the first internal angle formed in the cross section of the hollow portion 21 and the number of internal angles smaller than the square angle can be determined according to the portion where the oil is to be supplied.

The operation of the input shaft of the automatic transmission according to the present invention will now be described.

When the engine is driven, oil is supplied to the inside of the input shaft 20 through the oil pump 16.

The oil supplied to the inside of the input shaft 20 flows along the longitudinal direction of the input shaft 20.

At this time, since the input shaft 20 is in a rotating state, centrifugal force is applied to the oil flowing in the input shaft 20, so that the oil is concentrated on the portion where the second internal angle is formed.

Since the oil is supplied through the second internal angle from one end of the input shaft 20 (the end where the oil is supplied) to the portion where one of the oil discharge holes 22 is formed, the oil is discharged through the oil discharge hole 22 A sufficient amount of oil is discharged to the outside of the input shaft 20 and supplied to the respective internal portions of the automatic transmission 10 to smoothly lubricate them.

Particularly, even when the rotation speed of the input shaft 20 is low, a sufficient amount of oil is collected by the second internal angle, so that the cross-section of the hollow portion has a circular shape, which can solve the problem of poor oil supply compared with the prior art.

Further, in the input shaft of the automatic transmission, which is provided in the interior of the automatic transmission and in which a hollow portion is formed so that the oil supplied from the oil pump can flow through the hollow portion, the hollow portion is formed with grooves An oil discharge hole is formed in each of the grooves along the groove so as to supply oil from the groove to the outside of the input shaft, and a virtual line connecting the positions of the oil discharge holes may be helical along the input shaft .
