Abstract
A power transmission device for transmitting a torque from a drive source to a drive wheel includes a housing, an electric component, a power receiving unit, and a power transmitting unit. The housing is rotatable and receives a torque transmitted from the drive source. The electric component is attached to the housing. The power receiving unit is electrically connected to the electric component. Further, the power receiving unit is attached to an outer peripheral surface of the housing. The power transmitting unit is disposed outside of the housing at an interval from the power receiving unit. In addition, the power transmitting unit transmits power to the power receiving unit in a non-contact manner.
Claims11
A power transmission device for transmitting a torque from a drive source to a drive wheel, the power transmission device comprising:
- a housing that is rotatable and receives the torque transmitted from the drive source;
- an electric component attached to the housing;
- a power receiving unit electrically connected to the electric component and attached to an outer peripheral part of the housing;
- and
- a power transmitting unit that is disposed outside of the housing at an interval from the power receiving unit and that transmits power to the power receiving unit in a non-contact manner.
A power transmission device for transmitting a torque from a drive source to a drive wheel, the power transmission device comprising:
- a housing that is rotatable and receives the torque transmitted from the drive source;
- a rotating body disposed in the housing to be relatively rotatable with the housing;
- an electric component attached to the rotating body;
- a first power receiving unit electrically connected to the electric component and attached to an outer peripheral part of the rotating body;
- a first power transmitting unit for transmitting electric power to the first power receiving unit in a non-contact manner, the first power transmitting unit attached to an inner side surface of the housing and disposed at an interval from the first power receiving unit;
- a second power receiving unit attached to an outer peripheral surface of the housing and electrically connected to the first power transmitting unit;
- and
- a second power transmitting unit for transmitting electric power to the second power receiving unit in a non-contact manner, the second power transmitting unit disposed outside of the housing at an interval from the second power receiving unit.
