公昭55−54573号公報参照)。The rotation of the engine is transmitted to the front wheels via the transmission, and is also transmitted to the rear wheels from the transfer clutch installed in the transmission section through the propeller shaft, rear differential, rear axle shaft, etc., and the engine rotates the front and rear wheels. A part-time 4WD vehicle has already been developed in which the vehicle can switch from a four-wheel drive state in which the vehicle is rotatably driven to a two-wheel drive state in which power transmission to the rear wheels is stopped by disengaging the transfer clutch. It is publicly known (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 55-54573).

電源を示す。The slide sleeve 11 that constitutes the clutch mechanism is
It is configured to slide by two electromagnets 12 and 13 attached to the housing 2, and when the electromagnet 12 is energized, it engages across both engaging teeth 31α and 32α as shown by the solid line, thereby transmitting rotational force. When the electromagnet 13 is turned on and the electromagnet 13 is energized, the slide sleeve 11 is turned on.
3, the two-type magnet 12 slides to the right in the figure and engages only one of the engaging teeth 32α as shown by the chain line, thereby cutting off the transmission of rotational force and entering the OFF state. Switching of energization to and 13 is performed by a changeover switch 14 that can be operated from the driver's seat, and one changeover switch 14 can turn on and off the clutch mechanisms for both the left and right wheels at the same time.

る。When the transfer clutch is turned off, only the front wheels are rotated by the engine (2@ drive state), and the rear wheels become driven wheels, but at that time, the changeover switch 14 is manually or automatically set to the MH indication. As a result, the electromagnet 13 is energized, and the slide sleeve 11 is attracted by the electromagnet 13 and slides as shown by the chain line, and the clutch is in the off state and rotated from the wheel side.

1 is attracted to the electromagnet 12 as shown by the solid line in FIG. 1, and the clutch is turned on. In this state, the electromagnet 12
Since sliding occurs on one end surface IHi of the slide sleeve 11 as the wheel rotates, it is recommended to provide a layer of a material with a small sliding friction coefficient and excellent wear resistance on the sliding surface portion. Alternatively, it may be difficult to take measures such as interposing a bearing, but as shown in the embodiment shown in FIG. By providing a switching element 16 that automatically cuts off power to the electromagnet 12 in response to a signal, when the clutch-on operation of the slide sleeve 11 is completed, the electromagnet 12 becomes de-energized and loses its attractive force. Reduction in sliding friction between electromagnet 12 and slide sleeve 11 and significant reduction in rotational resistance.

A switching element 16 must be provided in the M-ton circuit from the electromagnet 12 to the electromagnet 12 that connects the electromagnet 12 to the ground via the changeover switch 14 from the pattern #15, and the power supply 15 and the resistor R1.
, a control circuit is provided which leads to the switching element 16 via a resistor R2.

回転抵抗。When the slide sleeve 11 slides and the clutch is turned on, the contact 17 comes into contact with one end surface of the slide sleeve 11 and is grounded from the slide sleeve 11. Therefore, the potential of the contact 17 becomes O, and the switching element 16
is switched to non-conducting state, and the energization to the electromagnet 12 is stopped, and there is no attraction force of the electromagnet 12, and rotation resistance due to the attraction of the electromagnet 12 occurs.

意に選定できる。The contact 17 is connected to the slide sleeve 11 when the clutch is on.
Since the clutch-on operation T is detected by contact with the contact point 17, the mounting location of the contact point 17 can be arbitrarily selected within the range of the purpose.

で、工業的価値極めて大なるものである。As described above, according to the present invention, in a part-time 4WD vehicle, the spindle of the wheel that becomes the driven wheel when running in two-wheel drive is divided into two parts, and the two divided spindles are connected by a clutch mechanism operated by an electromagnet. Due to the fact that the electromagnet is configured to be disconnected, it is possible to simultaneously shut off the rotation of the spindle portions of the left and right driven wheels during two-wheel drive simply by switching the changeover switch that switches the energization to the electromagnet. It is possible to stop almost all rotation of the power transmission system on the driven wheel side, reducing running resistance, fuel consumption, and noise. By installing a mechanism that detects when the clutch mechanism is fully engaged and cuts off the power to the electromagnet when the clutch mechanism is turned on, it has significant effects such as significant reductions in rotational resistance, sliding resistance, etc., and power savings. It has enormous industrial value.
