ABSTRACT:
A planetary gear mechanism including a rotating shaft having a splined end portion, a sun gear splined at a free end of the splined end portion, planetary gears engaging the sun gear, a carrier for rotatably supporting the planetary gears, a ring gear engaging the planetary gears, a clutch for connecting the rotating shaft and the carrier. The clutch has a first rotary member splined on the splined end portion of the rotating shaft such that the first rotary member is adjacent to the sun gear at the free end of the shaft, a first friction member rotatable with the first rotary member, a second rotary member rotatable with the carrier, and a second friction member rotatable with the second rotary member. The first and second friction member frictionally engage each other to transmit power therebetween. The first rotatary member is rotatably supported by a housing of the mechanism, and the sun gear axially slidably engages the first rotary member, for coaxial relation with the first rotary member, whereby the sun gear is maintained in coaxial relation with the nominal axis of rotation of the rotating shaft.
