Types of differentials in a car

Functions

During the rotary maneuver the vehicle changes the movement of the wheels. The transmission device compensates for the speed difference and allows you to rotate the wheels without a whisper. When changing the nature of the pavement, the axis begins to rotate with different intensity, creates a certain torque, which is distributed on the wheels in the required ratio. Thus, the node provides equal maneuvers of vehicles.

Functional mechanism

base of the node is the gear system, which are mounted on the peasants, satellites. The transmission of the rotational moment occurs through the main gear. Work modes are as follows.

1. The wheels move with the same resistance on a flat road, so the gears do not move. The periods of their rotation and gear satellites are equal.
2. There is a difference in wheel clutch with the road. There is a slowdown in one gears, which leads to the second group of gears, which ensure the movement of the second penal, accelerating it. Changing the movement of gears affects the ratio of wheel speeds, which protects them from scrolling;
? The device allows you to achieve redistribution of power in such a way that one wheel will stand, the other - to move twice faster (whispering). Under such conditions, motor transport will not be able to move.

where

The type of drive of the car affects the location of the device. yes it is placed:

• in the crankcase of front -wheel drive cars;
• in the bowl of the leading bridge - in rear -wheel vehicles;
• front, rearmill, distribution box - in all -wheel vehicles.

distinguish the following types of differential differentials: interpreted - any trucks and cars are installed, and the inter -axis - is only put on all -wheel drive vehicles.

types of mechanisms, depending on the variety of gear:

• conical symmetrical - for rear and front -wheel drive cars;
• cylindrical asymmetric - for all -wheel drive vehicles;
• worm - for any car.

The main types of car differentials

the following nodes are distinguished by the functioning mechanism:

• with forced blocking (VAZ 2121);
• Automatic LSD lock (with a large rotation difference), an ideal option for ice and off -road;
• Vying coupling - by changing the properties of substances;
• torsen - for the worm type of transmission;
• Electronic - lock occurs with a side computer;
• Many.

Buyers of new SUVs should know what type of differentials are not used on machines. Many disadvantages are practically not found on modern models, it is more suitable for racing.

A differential car allows you to move safely along the route and perform complex maneuvers. The device helps to protect the tires.
