Reduction reverse gear and ship including the same

Abstract

A reduction reverse gear according to the invention of the present application includes: an input shaft to which rotational driving force from a main engine is input; a front-reverse housing accommodating forward-backward switching mechanisms with which the rotational driving force from the input shaft is switched among forward, neutral, and backward; an output shaft through which the rotational driving force from the forward-backward switching mechanisms is output; and a reduction housing accommodating a reduction mechanism with which the rotational driving force from the output shaft is reduced to be transmitted to a propeller shaft. The housings are detachably coupled to each other on front and rear sides in an axial direction. The input shaft and the output shaft are arranged on the same plane while facing each other.
