Reducer for electric vehicle

1. A reducer for an electric vehicle, the reducer comprising:

an input shaft connected to a motor;

a differential disposed coaxially with the input shaft and being rotatable relative to the input shaft;

a planetary gear train configured to decelerate power of the input shaft, and to transmit the power to a differential casing of the differential; and

a drive shaft coupled to one side gear of the differential, wherein the drive shaft is configured to penetrate the input shaft;

wherein an end of the input shaft is inserted into the differential casing, and a first bearing is installed between an inner circumferential surface of the differential casing and an outer circumferential surface of the input shaft.

2. The reducer of claim 1 , wherein the planetary gear train comprises:

a sun gear provided on the input shaft;

a carrier engaging with the differential casing; and

a ring gear fixed to a casing.

3. The reducer of claim 2 , wherein planetary pinions rotatably supported on the carrier comprise:

a first stage pinion engaging with the sun gear; and

a second stage pinion engaging with the ring gear;

wherein the first stage pinion has a larger diameter than the second stage pinion.

4. The reducer of claim 2 , wherein the carrier and the differential casing engage with each other by a spline by sliding in an axial direction.

5. The reducer of claim 2 , wherein a parking gear is positioned on the carrier.

6. The reducer of claim 5 , wherein a spline is formed between an outer circumferential surface of the carrier and an inner circumferential surface of the parking gear so that the parking gear is coupled to the outer circumferential surface of the carrier by sliding in an axial direction.

7. The reducer of claim 2 , wherein a pin insertion port for fixing a pinion shaft is positioned in the differential casing and opened toward the carrier of the planetary gear train.

8. The reducer of claim 1 wherein the input shaft is supported on the casing by a second bearing and a third bearing, the second bearing and the third bearing being spaced apart from each other in an axial direction, and the differential casing is supported by a fourth bearing on the casing at a position spaced apart from the first bearing in the axial direction.

9. The reducer of claim 8 , wherein an oil supply part is positioned in the casing to supply oil through a space between the input shaft and the drive shaft, and the oil supply part is configured to supply the oil to a gap between the end of the input shaft and the drive shaft.
