Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent heat-generation of a friction plate and to eliminate the deterioration or seisure of lubricating oil by providing a hub member, which is arranged inside a casing, with both an oil sump, which accommodates lubricating oil, and an oil passage, which introduces the lubricating oil into a friction plate. CONSTITUTION:When oil pressure is supplied to actuators 133 and 135, piston members 109 and 111 go forward to push multiple-disc clutches 89 and 91, and consequently the driving force is transmitted to right and left rear wheels 25 and 27. Then, the lubricating oil enclosed in a differential carrier 35 flows through ports 129, 131, 132, 134, 136, etc. of a differential casing 29 or the like into an oil sump 61 to be accommodated. As hub members 45 and 47 rotate, the lubricating oil is supplied via oil passages 67 and 69 to friction plates 83, 85, and 87 to lubricate and cool the plates.

By changing the ratio of drive force distribution between the #1 rear wheels during cornering, the magnitude of each cornering force can be adjusted, and the steering characteristics of the vehicle body can be improved in the same way as described above. That is, if the driving force on the front wheel 17.19 side is increased, its cornering force is reduced, so the cornering force on the rear wheel 25.27 side gives a yawing moment on the outside of the corner, causing the vehicle to tend to understeer. In addition, in the case of a front-engine car like the one shown in Figure 2 with a heavy front wheel, the front wheels 17.19 have greater grip, so the multi-disc clutch 89.91 is firmly engaged to distribute the driving force between the front and rear wheels. If a large driving force is applied with the ratios being equal, the rear wheels 25.27 will lose cornering force first. Therefore, the vehicle body tends to oversteer due to the cornering force on the front wheel 17.19 side. Furthermore, for the same reason, since the center of gravity of the vehicle shown in FIG. 2 is closer to the front, during cornering, the influence of the cornering force on the rear wheel 25.27 side is stronger, and therefore the vehicle exhibits a tendency to understeer. Therefore, by increasing the distribution of driving force to the rear wheels 25 and 27 and reducing the cornering force, it is possible to stop the understeer tendency inherent to the vehicle body as described above.

このように、ステア特性のコントロールを行えば車両の
操縦性と安全性とを改善することができる。
In this way, by controlling the steering characteristics, it is possible to improve the maneuverability and safety of the vehicle.

If one of the rear wheels 25, 27, for example, the left rear wheel 25, slips, the driving force will be concentrated on the rear axle 23 of the right rear wheel 27, which continues to be driven, and there is a risk of damage and the driving force of the right rear wheel 27 will be reduced. This causes a sudden yaw moment that causes the vehicle to turn to the left, which is dangerous. In such a case, such a danger can be avoided by detecting the slip of the rear wheels 25 or the yawing moment generated in the vehicle body and releasing the multi-plate clutch 91 on the right rear wheel 27 side.

Also, when equipped with a 2-4 switching mechanism and switched to 2WD driving, if the multi-disc clutch 89.91 is released, the rear wheel 25.2
The rotation of the drive system No. 7 stops. Therefore, it is possible to prevent wear of various parts, generation of vibration and noise, and decrease in fuel efficiency due to unnecessary rotation of these parts. In this way, the same effect can be obtained without installing a freehub clutch, and
Operation is more reliable.

Further, as described above, the rear differential 11 can differentially distribute the driving force while limiting the differential between the front and rear wheels. This is a function of the center death with differential limiting function. Therefore, if the rear differential 11 is used, a center differential is not required, and the structure of the power transmission system of the vehicle can be simplified accordingly, resulting in a significant effect in terms of cost and reduction of ff1ffi.
