Abstract
A lubricating structure of an automatic transmission is provided which is capable of realizing high lubrication efficiency by allowing lubricating oil to flow efficiently, and of retaining the durability of a member to be lubricated. In the lubricating structure of the automatic transmission, an oil seal line (35) corresponds to a line on which an oil catching member (29) comes into contact with a carrier plate (10), and the oil seal line (35) has a configuration in which the distance in radial directions from an input shaft (21) to each point on the oil seal line (35) is made unequal so that the lubricating oil caught by the oil catching member (29) flows along the oil seal line (35) toward the opening of an oil path (28) on the side opposite to the side on which a pinion is disposed by centrifugal force making rotation on the input shaft (21).
