What are the types of final drives?
1 Answers
There are several types of final drives: 1. Two-stage reduction gear: It features an additional intermediate gear. The left side of the driving bevel gear meshes with the bevel gear portion of the intermediate gear, while a small-diameter spur gear on the same shaft as the bevel gear meshes with the driven gear. 2. Single-stage reduction gear: It consists of a driving bevel gear and a driven bevel gear. The driving bevel gear connects to the drive shaft and rotates clockwise, with the driven bevel gear positioned to its right. The meshing point rotates downward, aligning with the forward direction of the wheels. The function of the final drive is to further reduce the speed of the power output from the transmission to increase torque, before transferring the power to the differential.
