A differential assembly with two jointly actuated adjusting means axially

摘要

A differential assembly (2) for variable torque distribution in the drive train of a motor vehicle, comprisinga differential gear (21) with a rotationally drivable differential cage (4) and two on an axis of rotation (a) is supported on the side of the output shafts (3, 3 '') which, with the differential cage (4) via a differential gear wheels set (7, 9, 9'') are drivingly connected, wherein between the differential cage (4) and each of the output shafts (3, 3 '') is formed a first drive train;the output shaft (3, 3 '') of a gear stage (14, 14'') which, with the differential cage (4) on the one hand and one of the output shafts (3, 3 '') on the other hand, and is drivingly connected to the first drive train which is part of a functionally parallel second drive train is;the gear stage (14, 14 '') a friction clutch (15, 15'') for to - and uncoupling of the second drive train;the friction clutch (15, 15 '') an axially adjusting device (16, 16'') in the form of a ball ramp arrangement for the actuation of the friction clutch, with in each case two to the axis of rotation (a) coaxial disks (42, 43; 42 '', 43''), of which one and the other axially supported so as to be axially displaceable..
