VEHICLE DRIVING AXLE Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; transmissions.

SUBSTANCE: proposed driving axle of vehicle contains angular gear drive consisting of drive gear and driven gear wheel 3 secured on housing 4 of differential 5. Housing 4 is installed, together with cover 6, in drive axle sleeve on taper antifriction bearings 7, 8 with diverging axle of rollers 9, 10. Nuts 13, 14 are installed in drive axle sleeve at inner end faces of outer races 11, 12 of bearings 7, 8. Semirings 24, 25 are arranged at outer end faces of inner races 20, 21 of bearings 7, 8 in grooves of housing 4 and cover 6. Hoop 26 is fitted on each pair of semirings. Hoop 26 is arranged in groove formed between inner race of taper bearing and step made on semirings 24, 25 at their outer surface from side of inner race of bearing. Inner races 20, 21 of taper bearings 7, 8 are installed in housing 4 and cover 6 for axial displacement from semirings 24, 25 through distance exceeding thickness of hoop 26. through holes 27, 28 are made in housing 4 and cover 6 opposite to inner races 20, 21 of taper bearings 7, 8.

EFFECT: simplified design of drive axle, provision of its reliability.
