【産業上の利用分野】[Industrial applications]

本考案は、同軸的に支持された両回転部材間に介装されてこれら両部材間のト ルク伝達を行う駆動力伝達装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a driving force transmission device that is interposed between two rotating members that are coaxially supported and that transmits torque between these two members.

【0002】[0002]

【従来の技術】[Prior Art]

かかる駆動力伝達装置は、互いに同軸的に支持された両回転部材間に介装され てこれら両回転部材の相対回転時これら両回転部材を互いにトルク伝達可能に連 結するもので、従動側回転部材を駆動させる連結機構として使用されるものと、 これら両回転部材間の回転差を制限させる差動制限機構として使用されるもの等 に大別される。前者の連結機構は主としてリアルタイム式の四輪駆動車における 一方の動力伝達系路に介装され、また後者の差動制限機構は主として車両におけ る各ディファレンシャルに介装される。 Such a driving force transmitting device is interposed between both rotating members which are coaxially supported with each other, and when the both rotating members rotate relative to each other, these rotating members are connected to each other so that torque can be transmitted to each other. It is roughly classified into one used as a connecting mechanism for driving the members and one used as a differential limiting mechanism for limiting the rotation difference between the both rotating members. The former coupling mechanism is mainly installed in one power transmission path in a real-time four-wheel drive vehicle, and the latter differential limiting mechanism is mainly installed in each differential in the vehicle.

【0003】 しかして、従来の駆動力伝達装置としては特開昭63−240429号公報に 示されているように、同軸的かつ相対回転可能に位置する内外両回転部材間に収 容され前記両回転部材の相対回転により作動してこれら両回転部材をトルク伝達 可能に連結する摩擦係合力を発生させるとともに付与される軸方向の押圧力に応 じて前記摩擦係合力を増減させる摩擦クラッチ、および前記両回転部材の相対回 転に応じた軸方向の押圧力を発生させて同押圧力を前記摩擦クラッチに付与する 押圧力発生手段を備えてなる駆動力伝達装置がある。However, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-240429, a conventional driving force transmission device is housed between both inner and outer rotating members that are coaxially and relatively rotatable. A friction clutch that is actuated by relative rotation of the rotary members to generate a frictional engagement force that connects the two rotary members in a torque transmittable manner, and that increases or decreases the frictional engagement force in response to an axial pressing force applied; There is a driving force transmission device including a pressing force generating unit that generates a pressing force in the axial direction according to the relative rotation of the rotating members and applies the pressing force to the friction clutch.

【0004】 この種形式の駆動力伝達装置においては、両回転部材間に相対回転が生じると 押圧力発生手段に差動回転数に応じた圧力が発生する。この圧力は摩擦クラッチ を押圧して同クラッチに両回転部材をトルク伝達可能に連結する摩擦係合力を発 生させる。かかる摩擦係合力は差動回転数に比例し、両回転部材間では差動回転 数に比例したトルクが一方から他方へ伝達される。従って、当該駆動力伝達装置 は四輪駆動車の一方の動力伝達系路における駆動側回転部材と従動側回転部材と の連結機構として機能するとともに、駆動側および従動側回転部材間、両駆動側 回転部材間または両従動側回転部材間の差動制限機構としても機能する。In this type of driving force transmission device, when relative rotation occurs between both rotary members, pressure corresponding to the differential rotation speed is generated in the pressing force generation means. This pressure presses the friction clutch to generate a frictional engagement force that couples both rotary members to the same clutch so that torque can be transmitted. Such frictional engagement force is proportional to the differential rotation speed, and torque proportional to the differential rotation speed is transmitted between the two rotary members from one to the other. Therefore, the driving force transmission device functions as a connecting mechanism between the driving side rotation member and the driven side rotation member in one power transmission system path of the four-wheel drive vehicle, and also between the driving side and the driven side rotation member and both driving sides. It also functions as a differential limiting mechanism between the rotating members or between both driven side rotating members.

【考案が解決しようとする課題】[Problems to be solved by the device]

ところで、上記した形式の駆動力伝達装置においては、両回転部材が高差動状 態で連続して作動した場合等には摩擦クラッチが摩擦熱により高温となってハン プ現象を発生させるとともに、摩擦クラッチを焼損させることとにもなる。これ に対処すべく、本出願人は実開平2−65722号公報に示す駆動力伝達装置を 提案している。当該駆動力伝達装置においては、摩擦クラッチに対して押圧力発 生手段からの押圧力を伝達する作動ピストンを、摩擦クラッチから離間させる方 向に付勢する形状記憶合金等の感温性のバネ部材を採用して、摩擦クラッチが高 温に達するとバネ部材の変形により作動ピストンによる摩擦クラッチへの押圧力 を減少させることにより、摩擦クラッチのハンプ現象の発生および焼損の発生を 防止している。本考案の目的は、両回転部材間に高差動状態が発生した場合には 両回転部材を互いに結合して高い差動状態を解消して、摩擦クラッチのハンプ現 象の発生および焼損の発生を防止することにある。 By the way, in the driving force transmission device of the above-mentioned type, when both rotary members continuously operate in a high differential state, the friction clutch becomes high temperature due to frictional heat and causes a hump phenomenon. It also burns out the friction clutch. In order to deal with this, the present applicant has proposed a driving force transmission device shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-65722. In the driving force transmission device, a temperature-sensitive spring such as a shape memory alloy that urges the working piston that transmits the pressing force from the pressing force generating means to the friction clutch in the direction of separating from the friction clutch. When the friction clutch reaches a high temperature, the deformation of the spring member reduces the pressing force on the friction clutch by the working piston, preventing the friction clutch from humping and burning. .. The object of the present invention is to eliminate the high differential state by connecting both rotary members to each other when a high differential state occurs between both rotary members, thereby causing a hump phenomenon and a burnout of the friction clutch. Is to prevent.

【課題を解決するための手段】[Means for Solving the Problems]

本考案は上記した形式の駆動力伝達装置において、前記両回転部材間に複数の プレートをこれら両回転部材の内外側へ移動可能にかつ前記摩擦クラッチに当接 して同摩擦クラッチにて回転可能に周方向へ並列的に配置して、同プレートを前 記両回転部材のいずれか一方には同プレートの周方向への回転により同プレート を前記両回転部材のいずれか他方の回転部材側へ移動して同回転部材に圧接させ るカム手段を介して組付けるとともに前記他方の回転部材には回転可能に組付け 、かつ前記プレートを前記一方の回転部材側へ所定の力で付勢するバネ部材によ り受承したことを特徴とするものである。 According to the present invention, in the driving force transmission device of the above-mentioned type, a plurality of plates can be moved between the rotary members inward and outward of the rotary members and can be rotated by contacting the friction clutch with the friction clutch. Are arranged side by side in the circumferential direction, and the plate is attached to either one of the two rotary members by rotating the plate in the circumferential direction to the other rotary member side of the both rotary members. A spring that moves and assembles the rotary member to the rotary member through a cam means and rotatably installs the rotary member to the other rotary member, and biases the plate toward the one rotary member with a predetermined force. It is characterized in that it is received by members.

【考案の作用・効果】[Operation and effect of the device]

かかる構成の駆動力伝達装置においては、前記プレートがバネ部材の付勢力に よりカム手段を介して両回転部材の一方の回転部材に固定されていて、内外両回 転部材間に高差動状態が発生する以前においては摩擦クラッチにより周方向へ回 転されることはなく、従来のこの種形式の駆動力伝達装置と同様に作動する。ま た、両回転部材間に高差動状態が発生するとプレートが摩擦クラッチにより周方 向へ回転され、プレートの周方向への回転によりカム手段が作動して同プレート をバネ部材に抗して他方の回転部材側へ移動させて同回転部材に圧接する。この ため、両回転部材は同プレートにより周方向に互いに結合され、これら両回転部 材間の高差動状態が解消される。従って、摩擦クラッチのハンプ現象の発生およ び焼損の発生が防止される。 In the driving force transmission device having such a configuration, the plate is fixed to one rotating member of both rotating members via the cam means by the urging force of the spring member, and a high differential state is provided between the inner and outer rotating members. Before the occurrence of the above, the frictional clutch does not rotate in the circumferential direction, and the frictional clutch operates in the same manner as a conventional driving force transmission device of this type. Further, when a high differential state occurs between the rotating members, the plate is rotated in the circumferential direction by the friction clutch, and the rotation of the plate in the circumferential direction actuates the cam means to resist the plate against the spring member. It is moved to the other rotary member side and pressed against the same rotary member. Therefore, both rotary members are connected to each other in the circumferential direction by the same plate, and the high differential state between these rotary members is eliminated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the hump phenomenon and the burnout of the friction clutch.

Each clutch plate 16a has a spline portion on the outer periphery thereof fitted into a spline portion 11c provided on the inner periphery of the outer case 11, and is assembled to the case 11 so as to be integrally rotatable and movable in the axial direction.

It is attached. A predetermined amount of clutch oil and gas are sealed in the accommodating chambers of the clutch plate 16a and the clutch disc 16b.

【0011】 押圧力発生手段10aを構成する作動ピストン14はアウタケース11の筒部 11aの他端側内周に液密的に一体回転可能かつ軸方向へ摺動可能に、またイン ナシャフト13に対してはその外周に液密的に回転可能かつ軸方向へ摺動可能に それぞれ組付けられていて、その一側面にて図示最右端のクラッチディスク16 bに当接して配置された後述する複数のプレート17に当接している。ロータ1 5は図1および図2に示すように、環状ボス部15aの外周の互に等間隔離れた 部位にて半径方向へ延びる2枚のベーン部15bを備え、環状ボス部15aにて インナシャフト13の筒部13a外周に嵌合され、同シャフト13に対して一体 回転可能に組付けられている。かかるロータ15はエンドカバー12の一側に設 けた環状凹所12aの深さと略同じ厚みに形成されていて、環状凹所12a内に 嵌合している。エンドカバー12はインナシャフト13の筒部13aの他端側外 周に液密的に軸方向へ摺動可能かつ回転可能に嵌合され、アウタケース11に対 しては進退可能に螺着され、かつ液密的となっている。かかるエンドカバー12 においては、軸方向の位置調整がなされてアウタケース11にカシメ手段にて固 定され、その一側面にて作動ピストン14の他側面に当接し、作動ピストン14 とによりロータ15が位置する流体室を形成している。この流体室内にはシリコ ンオイル等高粘性流体と空気とが所定量封入されており、またロータ15はその ベーン部15bの外周を環状凹所12aの内周に液密的に接触させ、流体室内を 2つの滞留室Rに区画している。The actuating piston 14 that constitutes the pressing force generating means 10 a is liquid-tightly integrally rotatable with the inner circumference of the other end side of the tubular portion 11 a of the outer case 11 and slidable in the axial direction. On the other hand, a plurality of members, which will be described later, are mounted on the outer periphery thereof in a liquid-tight manner so as to be rotatable in a liquid-tight manner and slidable in the axial direction, and one side face of which is arranged in contact with the clutch disc 16 b at the right end in the drawing. Is in contact with the plate 17. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the rotor 15 is provided with two vane portions 15b extending in the radial direction at portions of the outer periphery of the annular boss portion 15a that are equally spaced apart from each other. The shaft 13 is fitted to the outer circumference of the cylindrical portion 13a and is integrally rotatably assembled to the shaft 13. The rotor 15 is formed to have a thickness substantially the same as the depth of the annular recess 12a provided on one side of the end cover 12, and is fitted in the annular recess 12a. The end cover 12 is fitted to the outer circumference of the other end side of the cylindrical portion 13a of the inner shaft 13 in a liquid-tight manner so as to be slidable in the axial direction and rotatably, and is screwed to the outer case 11 so as to be able to move forward and backward. , And is liquid-tight. In such an end cover 12, the position adjustment in the axial direction is performed and the outer case 11 is fixed by the crimping means, and one side of the end cover 12 abuts against the other side of the working piston 14, so that the rotor 15 is supported by the working piston 14. It defines a fluid chamber in which it is located. A predetermined amount of highly viscous fluid such as silicone oil and air are enclosed in this fluid chamber, and the rotor 15 has its outer periphery of its vane portion 15b liquid-tightly contacted with the inner periphery of the annular recess 12a, so that the fluid chamber is closed. Is divided into two retention chambers R.

【0012】 しかして、摩擦クラッチ10bと作動ピストン14間には図1および図3に示 すように、扇形状の6枚のプレート17が周方向に並列的に配置されている。各 プレート17においては、インナシャフト13の外周に対しては周方向へ回転可 能に組付けられているとともに、アウタケース11の内周に対してはカム手段を 介して組付けられており、この状態で各プレート17は互いに隣合う周間隙に配 置したバネ部材18に受承されて半径方向の外周側へ所定の力で付勢されている 。カム手段はアウタケース11の内周に設けた断面V形状の多数のカム溝11d 、これらに対向して各プレート17の外周に設けた断面V形状の多数のカム溝1 7a、および両カム溝11d,17a間に介装した多数のボール19により構成 されている。この状態において各プレート17はバネ部材18の作用によりカム 手段を介してアウタケース11と一体的であって、同ケース11と一体的に回転 する。As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, six fan-shaped plates 17 are arranged in parallel in the circumferential direction between the friction clutch 10b and the working piston 14. In each plate 17, the outer periphery of the inner shaft 13 is rotatably assembled in the circumferential direction, and the inner periphery of the outer case 11 is assembled via a cam means. In this state, the plates 17 are received by the spring members 18 arranged in the circumferential gaps adjacent to each other, and are biased to the outer peripheral side in the radial direction by a predetermined force. The cam means are a large number of cam grooves 11d having a V-shaped cross section provided on the inner circumference of the outer case 11, a large number of cam grooves 17a having a V-shaped cross section provided on the outer circumference of each plate 17 so as to face them, and both cam grooves. It is composed of a large number of balls 19 interposed between 11d and 17a. In this state, each plate 17 is integrated with the outer case 11 via the cam means by the action of the spring member 18, and rotates integrally with the outer case 11.

【0013】 また、各プレート17は一側面にて作動ピストン14に当接しかつ他側面にて 摩擦クラッチ10bのクラッチディスク16bに当接していて、アウタケース1 1とインナシャフト13間に相対回転が発生した場合にはクラッチディスク16 bと摩擦摺接する。従って、アウタケース11とインナシャフト13間に所定以 上の相対回転が発生した場合には各プレート17が摩擦クラッチ10bにより周 方向へ回転され、この結果カム手段の作用により各プレート17が各バネ部材1 8に抗して半径方向の内周側へ移動してインナシャフト13の外周に圧接し、同 シャフト13を締め付ける。Further, each plate 17 is in contact with the actuating piston 14 on one side and in contact with the clutch disc 16 b of the friction clutch 10 b on the other side, so that relative rotation between the outer case 11 and the inner shaft 13 is achieved. When it occurs, it makes frictional sliding contact with the clutch disc 16b. Therefore, when a relative rotation more than a predetermined value occurs between the outer case 11 and the inner shaft 13, each plate 17 is rotated in the circumferential direction by the friction clutch 10b, and as a result, each plate 17 is caused to act by each spring by the action of the cam means. The inner shaft 13 is pressed against the outer periphery of the inner shaft 13 by moving inward in the radial direction against the member 18, and the shaft 13 is tightened.

【0014】 かかる構成の駆動力伝達装置10においては、第1、第2両プロペラシャフト 25,26間に相対回転が生じるとトルク伝達がなされる。すなわち、これら両 シャフト25,26に相対回転が生じると、第1プロペラシャフト25に一体回 転可能に組付けられているアウタケース11、エンドカバー12、作動ピストン 14および各プレート17と、第2プロペラシャフト26に一体回転可能に組付 けられているインナシャフト13およびロータ15との間に相対回転が生じる。 従って、押圧力発生手段10aの流体室内においては、滞留室R内の粘性流体が 相対回転数に比例した速度にて強制的に流動させられ、周方向に順次相対移行す る滞留室R内では流動抵抗に起因してベーン部15bの下流側端から次のベーン 部15bの上流側端に向って漸次増圧される圧力分布が発生する。この圧力分布 の増圧部分は差動回転数に比例して増大するもので、作動ピストン14を軸方向 へ押圧する。この結果、作動ピストン14は各プレート17を介して摩擦クラッ チ10bを押圧し、各クラッチプレート16aとクラッチディスク16bをクラ ッチオイルを介して摩擦係合させる。これにより、摩擦クラッチ10bにおいて は差動回転数に比例したトルクをアウタケース11からインナシャフト13に伝 達し、車両は4輪駆動状態となる。また、この4輪駆動状態においては前後輪の 差動回転を許容し、タイトコーナブレーキング現象の発生も防止される。In the driving force transmission device 10 having such a configuration, torque is transmitted when relative rotation occurs between the first and second propeller shafts 25 and 26. That is, when the shafts 25 and 26 rotate relative to each other, the outer case 11, the end cover 12, the working piston 14 and the plates 17 that are integrally rotatably assembled to the first propeller shaft 25 and the second Relative rotation occurs between the inner shaft 13 and the rotor 15 that are integrally rotatably mounted on the propeller shaft 26. Therefore, in the fluid chamber of the pressing force generating means 10a, the viscous fluid in the retention chamber R is forcibly flown at a speed proportional to the relative rotational speed, and in the retention chamber R that sequentially shifts in the circumferential direction. Due to the flow resistance, a pressure distribution in which the pressure is gradually increased from the downstream end of the vane portion 15b toward the upstream end of the next vane portion 15b is generated. The pressure increasing portion of this pressure distribution increases in proportion to the differential rotation speed and presses the working piston 14 in the axial direction. As a result, the actuating piston 14 presses the friction clutch 10b via each plate 17 and frictionally engages each clutch plate 16a with the clutch disc 16b via clutch oil. As a result, in the friction clutch 10b, torque proportional to the differential rotation speed is transmitted from the outer case 11 to the inner shaft 13, and the vehicle is in the four-wheel drive state. Further, in this four-wheel drive state, differential rotation of the front and rear wheels is allowed, and the occurrence of the tight corner braking phenomenon is prevented.

【0015】 ところで、当該駆動力伝達装置10においては、アウタケース11とインナシ ャフト13間の相対回転数が大きくなつた場合、すなわち両プロペラシャフト2 5,26間に高差動状態が発生した場合には各プレート17が摩擦クラッチ10 bにより周方向へ回転され、この結果カム手段の作用により各プレート17が各 バネ部材18に抗して半径方向の内周側へ移動してインナシャフト13の外周に 圧接し、同シャフト13を締め付ける。この結果、アウタケース11とインナシ ャフト13とは各プレート17を介して結合するためアウタケース11とインナ シャフト13間の高差動状態が解消され、摩擦クラッチ10bのハンプ現象の発 生および焼損の発生が防止される。By the way, in the driving force transmission device 10, when the relative rotational speed between the outer case 11 and the inner shaft 13 increases, that is, when a high differential state occurs between the propeller shafts 25 and 26. Each plate 17 is rotated in the circumferential direction by the friction clutch 10b, and as a result, each plate 17 is moved radially inward against each spring member 18 by the action of the cam means to move the inner shaft 13 to the inner side. It is pressed against the outer circumference and the shaft 13 is tightened. As a result, since the outer case 11 and the inner shaft 13 are connected to each other via the plates 17, the high differential state between the outer case 11 and the inner shaft 13 is eliminated, and the hump phenomenon of the friction clutch 10b occurs and burnout occurs. Occurrence is prevented.
