Abstract

See full text

A main shaft drive includes a supply groove that opens to a friction surface, that extends so as to surround a main shaft within a contact range where the friction surface and a pressing surface oppose each other, and that includes an intersecting groove and a discharge opening. The intersecting groove extends in a direction of intersection with a circumference in which a rotational center of the main shaft is a center. The discharge opening is connected to a location that is outside the contact range. By opening a nozzle hole, used for supplying lubricant, towards the supply groove, as the main shaft rotates, four intersecting grooves move relative to the contact range, so that the lubricant is supplied to the four moved intersecting grooves. Therefore, the lubricant easily reaches a location within the contact range where the friction surface and the pressing surface oppose each other.
