Abstract

PURPOSE:To make transfer torque larger during low-speed running by installing a centrifugal clutch interposingly between both first and second rotating members in an operating chamber sealed with a viscous fluid, and when the absolute rotational speed is low, restricting relative rotation between these rotating members, but when it is high speed, making the relative rotation so as to be restricted the other way. CONSTITUTION:When a vehicle runs at high speed (absolute rotational speed is high), a first rotating member 12 and a second rotating member 13 rotate at high speed at the same time. Therefore a clutch member 20 of a centrifugal clutch 18 turns round to the outer circumferential side against the energizing force of a spring by dint of centrifugal force, and thereby the centrifugal clutch 18 is separated. When a front wheel is slipped while the vehicle runs on a rough road at low speed, there is produced a speed difference between these rotating members 12 and 13, and a viscous fluid is cut off by resisting plates 15 and 16, whereby shearing force is transmitted to the rear wheel as torque. In addition, the clutch member 20 comes into frictionally contact with the rotating member 12 by dint of the spring 21, therefore both rotating members 12 and 13 are not allowed of the speed difference, so that torque of the rotating member 12 is transmitted to the rear wheel from the rotating member 13. Consequently, it can get out of slipping state.

(Prior Art) As a conventional power transmission device, for example, there is a viscous coupling interposed between a transfer and a propeller shaft of a front engine, front drive (FF) based four-wheel drive vehicle. This viscous coupling includes a first rotating member connected to the drive shaft of the transfer, a second rotating member connected to the propeller shaft, and the first rotating member connected to the propeller shaft.
It consists of a working chamber defined by a rotating member and filled with viscous fluid. The working chamber includes a first resistance plate and a second resistance plate.
A resistance plate is housed, and the first and second low resistance plates at the mouth are the first and second resistance plates, respectively.
.. It is attached to two rotating members.

Therefore, the first resistance plate and the second resistance plate rotate relative to each other to shear the viscous fluid. The photopic force of the viscous fluid at this time is transmitted as torque to the rear wheels, which push the vehicle out of the slip state.

On the other hand, when turning the steering wheel sharply at low speeds, such as when parking the vehicle, there will be a difference in rotational speed between the front wheel drive shaft and rear wheel drive shaft, as well as between the left and right wheels, but this difference in rotational speed is small. Absorbed through this viscous coupling,
This prevents the so-called tight corner braking phenomenon from occurring.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, in such a conventional power transmission device, the number of rotations generated between the front wheel drive shaft and the rear wheel drive shaft during low speed and large steering such as during 11 storage, etc. Although it can be absorbed,
When a front wheel or a rear wheel gets stuck while driving at low speed on a rough road, there is a problem in that the vehicle cannot quickly escape from the stuck state because the torque transmitted between the first rotating member and the second rotating member is small.

Therefore, in order to quickly escape from the stack, the relative rotation between the first rotating member and the second rotating member may be further limited by other limiting means. However, there is an anti-lock braking system (A, B S) on the rear wheel side.
If the front wheels lock when the brakes are applied, the front wheel drive shaft and rear wheel drive shaft will be directly connected by further restricting the relative rotation, causing the rear wheels to lock as well. There was a problem that the B S j did not operate properly.

In a power transmission device that transmits torque between a first rotating member and a second rotating member, a centrifugal clutch is interposed between the first rotating member and the second rotating member,
This centrifugal clutch is configured to limit the relative rotation only when the absolute rotational speed is low, and not to limit the relative rotation when the absolute rotational speed is high.

When the first rotating member and the second rotating member rotate relative to each other, the viscous fluid is sheared and torque is transmitted between the first rotating member and the second rotating member.

A ring-shaped second rotating member 13 is inserted through the first rotating member 12 and is arranged to be relatively rotatable, and the second rotating member 13 is connected to the propeller shaft 6 . A working chamber 14 is defined by the first rotating member 12 and the second rotating member 13, and the working chamber 14 is filled with silicone oil as a viscous fluid.

Further, an interlocking member 17 having a U-shaped cross section as a whole and having a shape that covers the first rotating member 12 is fixed to the second rotating member 13 on the right side of the working chamber 14 in FIG.

Next, the effect will be explained. When the vehicle travels at high speed on a paved road (when the absolute rotational speed is high), the torque of the engine 1 is transferred from the transmission 2 to the front wheel drive shafts 7a, 7.
However, since the power transmission device 5 is provided between the transfer 3 and the propeller shaft 6, almost no torque is transmitted to the propeller shaft 6, causing the rear wheels to spin around. It runs as a front-wheel drive vehicle. That is, the first rotating member 12 and the second rotating member 1
3 and rotate at high speed almost simultaneously. Therefore, the clutch member 20 of the centrifugal clutch 18 rotates toward the outer circumference about the bottle 19 by this centrifugal force against the biasing force of the spring 21, and the friction surface 20a is separated from the outer circumferential surface of the first rotating member. Then, the centrifugal clutch 18 is disengaged. Therefore, the front wheel drive shaft 7a.

7b and the rear wheel drive shafts 10a, 10b are not firmly connected, and even if there is a rotation speed difference between the front wheels 8a, 8b and the rear wheels 11a, 11b, this power transmission device 5 can absorb it. As a result, if the invading side is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS), the front wheel 8a will be damaged when the brakes are applied.

Even if 8b locks, the front wheel drive shafts 7a, 7b and the rear wheel drive shafts 10a, 10b are not firmly connected, so even the rear wheels 11.11b will not be locked.
BS operates properly.

The first rotating member 12 connected to the engine 7b is directly driven by the engine 1, but since the resistance of the front wheels is low, only a small amount of torque is transmitted to the front wheels.

Here, since the rotational speed of the second rotating member 13 is low, the biasing force of the spring 21 is greater than the centrifugal force of the clutch member 20 of the centrifugal clutch 18. Therefore, the clutch member 20 is moved by the biasing force of the spring 21.
The friction surface 20a makes frictional contact with the outer circumferential surface 12a of the first rotating member 12, and the first rotating member 12 and the second rotating member 13 are connected by the centrifugal clutch 18 without allowing much difference in rotational speed. Therefore, the torque transmitted to the first rotating member 12 is transmitted from the second rotating member 13 to the rear wheel 11a.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, if the absolute rotational speed of the second rotating member 13 close to the vehicle speed is N, and the torque transmitted between the first rotating member 12 and the second rotating member 13 is expressed as a king, then the absolute rotational speed N When the absolute rotational speed N is high (during high-speed driving), the torque under is low, as shown by the solid line, but when the absolute rotational speed N is low (during low-speed driving), the torque peak is high. Note that the two-dot chain line indicates the torque under when only the centrifugal clutch 18 is operated, and the broken line indicates the torque T when only the actuation type 14 is operated.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, a centrifugal clutch is interposed between the first rotating member and the second rotating member, and the centrifugal clutch is activated only when the absolute rotational speed is low. Since the relative rotation is limited and the relative rotation is not limited when the absolute rotational speed is high, the torque transferability between the first rotating member and the second rotating member is improved. Therefore, when this power transmission device is installed in the power transmission path of a four-wheel drive vehicle, a large torque can be quickly transmitted to the wheel with a higher coefficient of friction. That is, the responsiveness of torque transmission to wheels with a high friction coefficient and the transmitted torque m can be improved. As a result, the vehicle can be quickly released from a slipping state. Furthermore, if the vehicle is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS), even if the front wheels lock, the rear wheels will not lock either, and the ABS will operate properly.
