Abstract
A cup-shaped strain wave gearing has an externally toothed gear formed with a cylindrical extension portion extending from an end of an external tooth forming portion of the externally toothed gear. A space between the external peripheral surface of the cylindrical extension portion and an end face of an internally toothed gear is sealed by an oil seal. A space between an outer-side lubrication portion on the outer side of the externally toothed gear and an inner-side lubrication portion on the inner side of the externally toothed gear is blocked by a lubricant-mixing-prevention part configured from the cylindrical extension portion and the oil seal. The mixing of different types of lubricants supplied to the outer-side and inner-side lubrication portions can be effectively prevented.
