DIFFERENTIAL OF ENHANCED FRICTION Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: differential has housing, spider with conical satellites, and output semi-shafts and semi- gears connected with them through end face cams. Between the housing and semi-gears are friction disk clutches the driving disks of which are connected with the housing whereas the driven disks are connected with the gears. The disks close to the gears bear on the stops of the housing. The grooves in the housing of the differential receive flexible stacks each of which is provided with an assembly of preliminary compressed flexible members set in the sleeve and bearing on the movable disk connected with the sleeve through grooves and stop ring. The movable disk enters the groove of the disk nearest to the housing and interacts with the disk stack through it. The disk stack is mounted with a spaced relation to the housing. The gear interacts with the stop of the shaft. EFFECT: improved design. 3 cl, 7 dwg
