Abstract
A speed change gear device is provided with a housing, a first member supported rotatably about a predetermined rotational axis, a shaft member formed with an external gear, an annular member formed with an internal gear meshing with the external gear, and a transmission mechanism for transmitting a rotational component only of the annular member to the shaft member or a disc member arranged to be rotatable relative to the housing. The external gear differs from the internal gear in the number of teeth. Further, the first member is formed with a receiving hole that receives the annular member at a position where the center of the annular member is at a predetermined distance from the rotational axis. Then, the annular member is received in the receiving hole rotatably relative to the first member.
