Abstract: According to property
requirement of differential, create a new mechanism, which is a
combination of a paralleogram linkage and a inverse
parallelogram linkage, to replace conventional bevel gears of
differential and point out that using the new mechanism the
differential can meet the needs of the requirements of torque
and speed of the two axle shafts. The instantaneous speed ratio
(ISR) which is the left and right half-shaft with respect to
differential shell is variable. The calculating result of the
locking factor of the new mechanism is up to 3. The limited-slip
capability increase twice. The mechanism is an ideal new type of
mechanism of differential.
