AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. A differential pre-torque mechanism, in which the conical spring is located between the side gear and the side gear washer, is used.

    2. The load of the conical spring applies a friction force to the sliding area, improving straightline stability and steering stability.

    3. Under light load and low differential rotation speeds, due to the friction force of the sliding area, the differential limit torque for the left and right wheels is achieved within the range of the conical spring allowable load. At middle and high load ranges, which are beyond the allowable load of the conical spring, the system performs as an open differential.
