ABSTRACT |
The limited slip differential (LSD) is a device that enables the driving force to be transmitted from one slipping wheel to the other by temporarily restraining the differential function when unwanted slipping occurs on muddy or icy roads. Many types of LSD have been developed, such as mechanical lock, disk clutch, viscous coupling, torsen and multiple clutch. This study designed a new type of hydraulic LSD using a pressure generator base on a trochoid gear pump and evaluated the performance of the new design. |
