  The one in which the input shaft portion is erected on the outer surface of the bottom portion of the first rotating body described in Patent Document 1 cannot adopt a simple processing method such as follow forming, for example. There is a problem that processing costs increase. Further, in a type that includes an electromagnetic coil and controls the engagement force of the clutch by an applied current to the electromagnetic coil, the first rotating body is formed of an aluminum alloy as described in Patent Document 2 above. There is. However, in such a case, it is impossible to transmit sufficient driving force through the input shaft portion having a relatively small diameter, and the input shaft portion is set up on the outer surface of the bottom portion of the first rotating body. In some cases, it may not be possible to take the configuration of installation.

  In addition, in the case where the bottom portion of the first rotating body is fastened to the flange portion described in Patent Document 2 with the bolt, the bolt is screwed to the bottom portion of the first rotating body from the flange side. A space (or the thickness of the bottom) for forming the bolt hole is required. In addition, since a plurality of insertion holes are formed in the flange, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the flange in order to avoid a decrease in strength associated therewith. For this reason, the configuration is disadvantageous from the viewpoint of weight reduction and size reduction, particularly shortening of the shaft length, and there remains room for improvement in this respect.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and its object is to transmit a driving force capable of reducing the cost, weight, and shortening the shaft without causing a decrease in torque transmission efficiency. To provide an apparatus.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention described in claim 1 includes a bottomed cylindrical first rotating body and a hollow shaft-shaped first rotating body coaxially arranged rotatably in the cylinder of the first rotating body. A two-rotor body, a clutch mechanism that is disposed between the first and second rotors and connects the first and second rotors so as to transmit torque, and the first rotor A flanged connecting member that is connected to be non-rotatable relative to the flange, the flanged connecting member includes a flange portion that is in contact with an axially outer surface of the bottom of the first rotating body; A shaft portion erected on the flange portion; and an engagement portion that engages with the first rotating body on one side of the flange portion opposite to the shaft portion, wherein the first rotating body includes the first rotating body, It is fastened to the connecting member with flange by a bolt from the inside of the cylinder in a state of being coaxially arranged with the shaft portion. In both cases, the engaging convex portion or the engaging concave portion formed in the engaging portion is engaged with the concave portion or the convex portion formed on the outer surface of the first rotating body, whereby the flanged connecting member cannot be relatively rotated. And a part of the head of the bolt is disposed in the hollow shaft-shaped second rotating body so as to overlap with the radially inner side of the inner peripheral surface of the second rotating body in the axial direction. The gist is to be arranged.

The invention according to claim 3 is a bottomed cylindrical first rotating body made of an aluminum alloy, a hollow shaft-shaped second rotating body that is coaxially arranged rotatably in a cylinder of the first rotating body, A clutch mechanism disposed between the first rotating body and the second rotating body to connect the first rotating body and the second rotating body so as to be able to transmit torque; and relatively unrotatable to the first rotating body In the driving force transmission apparatus including the flanged coupling member, the flanged coupling member includes a projecting portion projecting outward in the axial direction at the radial center of the bottom of the first rotating body. A flange portion made of an iron-based metal having a recessed portion to be fitted and a bottom surface of the recessed portion being in contact with an axially outer surface of the projecting portion; a shaft portion erected at a radial center portion of the flange portion; Engagement that engages with the first rotating body on one side of the flange portion opposite to the shaft portion The first rotating body is arranged in a coaxial manner with the shaft portion, and the tube of the first rotating body is inserted into an insertion hole formed in a radial center portion of the bottom portion where the protruding portion exists. A concave portion or a convex portion that is fastened to the flanged connecting member by a bolt inserted from the inside, and an engaging convex portion or an engaging concave portion formed on the engaging portion is formed on the outer surface of the first rotating body. The flanged connecting member is connected so as not to be relatively rotatable, and the engaging portion extends from the periphery of the flange portion in the axial direction and is disposed on the outer periphery of the first rotating body, The first rotating body engages with the inner peripheral surface of the engaging portion, and a part of the head of the bolt overlaps radially inward of the inner peripheral surface of the engaging portion in the axial direction. together are arranged, the axial direction by being disposed on the second rotation body of said hollow shaft-like The second being arranged so as to overlap radially inward of the inner circumferential surface of the rotating body in, and the gist.

According to the first and third aspects of the invention, the bolt hole for fastening is formed in the shaft portion of the flanged connecting member, so that the bolt hole is formed on the bottom side of the first rotating body. This eliminates the need for a space (or thickness of the bottom portion) to reduce the axial length. In addition, since it is not necessary to form a bolt insertion hole in the flange portion, a decrease in the strength of the flange portion due to the formation of the insertion hole can be suppressed. As a result, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the flange portion and further reduce the axial length and weight. Then, the relative rotation between the flanged connecting member and the first rotating body is restricted by engaging the engaging portion with the first rotating body, thereby ensuring high torque transmission efficiency. As a result, cost reduction, weight reduction, and short axis can be achieved. Furthermore, the space (space) near the bottom of the first rotating body formed by using the bolt fastening position as the shaft portion can be used as a space for storing lubricating oil, so-called oil sump. As a result, it is possible to further reduce the size of the driving force transmission device by effectively utilizing the space.

The gist is to engage with the inner peripheral surface of.

According to the configuration of the invention described in claim 2 and claim 3, the outer periphery of the first rotating body and the engagement portion extending in the axial direction from the periphery of the flange portion are engaged with each other. Since torque transmission is performed at a position away from the radial direction from the center, the area of the engaging portion necessary for torque transmission can be further reduced, and the size can be further reduced.

The invention according to claim 4 is summarized in that the connecting member with flange is connected to the first rotating body by the spline fitting of the engaging portion to the first rotating body.
According to the above configuration, higher torque transmission efficiency can be realized by the spline fitting between the engaging portion and the first rotating body.

The gist of the invention described in claim 5 is that a predetermined lead angle is set in any one of the spline of the engaging portion or the first rotating body.
According to the said structure, the clearance gap between both splines can be abolished and the generation | occurrence | production of the circumferential play can be prevented. As a result, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of vibration during rotation caused by such circumferential play, and to prevent loosening of the bolt caused by this.

  The gist of the invention described in claim 6 is that the head of the bolt abuts against the axially inner surface of the bottom portion of the first rotating body in the axial direction.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the driving force transmission device which can achieve weight reduction and a short shaft can be provided.
