HIGH-FREQUENCY DIFFERENTIAL Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: to obtain locking moments of different characteristics, distance bushing 14 are mounted for permitting interaction of their projections 15 with grooves 13 made in output shafts and torque supplied increases axial forces arising in engaging of semi-axle gears 6 with satellites and cams effect on movable disks 11 and compress flexible members 2. In so doing, distance bushings 14 prevent against compression of flexible members 2 and decreasing of friction torque in clutches 3 resulting in decreasing the locking moment with increasing the torque. When distance bushings are turned by 180° with respect to the longitudinal axis the output shafts and housing 1 are affected by axial forces. As a result, the locking moment is constant when torque increases. EFFECT: expanded functional capabilities. 3 dwg
