A Review Design & Analysis For Better Directional Stability Of Centrally Suspended Cage-Less Slip Differential And Performance Of Steering Geometry

Abstract

Differential is a device that transmits power from the transmission axle to the wheels of the vehicle thereby automatically controlling the speed difference of both wheel and accordingly transmitting adequate torque to the wheels while taking sharp turn. As a result of traction limited behaviour of an open differential there has been a need to develop a differential device that will overcome the shortcomings of the open differential. This paper is aimed at explaining the basis of differential mechanism and its types. The paper also focuses on the various types of Limited slip differential and their working mechanisms.
