FINAL DRIVE OF VEHICLE DRIVING AXLE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: manufacture of transport machinery. SUBSTANCE: final drive of the vehicle driving axle has two wheels, with a differential gear with bevel gears and hydraulic lock installed between them. Locking effect is provided by separation of the differential box interior by partitions into spaces filled with hydraulic fluid. At relative rotation of gears at a wheel slip hydraulic fluid is transferred from one space into the other, where from it partially flows through gaps to other spaces. However, the high rate of transfer of liquid fluid provides for a larger amount of its supply than that of its drain. EFFECT: enhanced effect of gear locking. 3 dwg
