Abstract
A gear transmission apparatus for a motor vehicle, provided with an input shaft having an input gear, a counter shaft having a counter gear meshing with the input gear, an output shaft having a front end portion inserted into the input gear via a pilot bearing device, and a transmission mechanism for transmitting the rotation of the input shaft to the output shaft under predetermined gear ratios. The apparatus is further provided with at least one substantially radially extending and forwardly inclined oil passageway rotating together with the input gear, and a stationarily mounted guide plate adapted for directing lubricant oil toward the outer end of the passageway. The oil is effectively directed to the pilot bearing device via the passageway.
