What is the working principle of the center differential?

[SanLevi]

The working principle of the center differential is as follows: 1. Power input of the differential: The driven gear (bevel gear) drives the rotation of the differential housing. 2. Power output of the differential: Two side gears, connected to the drive shafts (also known as half-shafts) on both sides, transmit power to the wheels on both sides. 3. Rotation of the planetary gears: This refers to the rotation of the planetary gears around the planetary gear shafts. 4. Revolution of the planetary gears: This refers to the rotation of the planetary gears around the axis of the side gears. Information about the center differential is as follows: 1. The function of the center differential is to transmit power to both half-shafts while allowing them to rotate at different speeds, ensuring that both wheels travel at varying distances in a pure rolling motion as much as possible, thereby reducing friction between the tires and the ground. 2. Common differential locks generally include the following types: forced locking type, high-friction self-locking type, jaw clutch type, Torsen type, and viscous coupling type.
