Definitions
- the present invention relates to transmission differentials, particularly for road vehicles, and particularly the problem of the lubrication of differential bearings, and dynamic rings that seal the differential housing or mechanisms, with the transmission shafts transmitting the transmission. movement of the differential to the wheels of the vehicle.
- this invention relates to a bearing lubrication system of a differential output rotating in a housing, guiding the scraped oil around the differential housing on a conical portion of the housing in the direction of the bearing.
- the bearings that rotate the differential line of a gearbox need to be lubricated when the vehicle is in motion. It is the same for dynamic lip rings that seal with the driveshafts.
- No. 6,186,277 discloses a differential housing with oil baffles integrated into its inner wall. These baffles are used to direct the oil projected inside the housing to the rolling bearings of the drive shafts at the two outputs of the housing.
- baffles are used to direct the oil projected inside the housing to the rolling bearings of the drive shafts at the two outputs of the housing.
- the space available between the crankcase and the differential case is very limited, to the point that they are almost contiguous. Under these conditions, the addition of baffles inside the housing is virtually impossible, or at least extremely difficult to achieve, either by the integration of baffles in the same wall of the housing, or the addition of patches , internally fixed on the housing wall.
- the invention aims to effectively guide the scraped oil on the conical inner wall of the housing to the areas to be lubricated. It proposes for this purpose to route the oil in the direction of rolling, by a raw channel foundry in the inner wall of the housing, opening halfway up the bearing.
- the oil is fed into the bottom of the housing by the lower wall of the channel.
- the proposed lubrication system finds a non-limiting application on a gear housing, or on a clutch housing and differential, gearboxes.
- FIGS. 1A and 1B illustrate a first crankcase arrangement for lubricating the transmission bearings
- FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate the crankcase arrangement preferred by the invention
- Figures 3A and 3B show a variant of the latter.
- FIG. 1A which is a view, on the box side, of a clutch and differential housing (1a, 1b), the passage opening 2 of the right drive shaft, of a front axle can be seen of vehicle.
- An arrow f indicates the direction of rotation of the differential case (not shown) in forward direction.
- On the inner wall of the differential housing lb there is a raw rib 3, in the upper position, for scraping oil entrained by the differential housing, and a groove, or channel 4, bringing the oil scraped by the rib 3, towards the opening 2.
- a boss 5 corresponding to an advance of the clutch mechanism (not shown) behind the housing 1b.
- the housing enclosing the mechanism of the gearbox, or mechanism housing presents the differential output to the left front wheel, with the left differential bearing.
- the clutch and differential housing then carries the right bearing.
- the method consists of scraping the oil rotated by the differential case and guiding it behind the bearing.
- the channel 4 opens in the upper part of the bearing, to maximize by gravity, the flow of oil entering behind the bearing.
- the interest of this provision is economic, since it is limited to a development directly from the crankcase in the foundry. Its limitations are due to the particular, essentially conical, shape of the housing, in the area of the housings, which houses the differential case. Indeed, a significant portion of the oil falls on the differential case by gravity, before reaching the bearing at the bottom of the housing.
- FIG. 2A and its enlargement of FIG. 2B show a mechanism casing 7, the passage opening 2 of the left transmission shaft, and the bearing 6.
- an arrow f has been indicated, the direction of rotation of the drive shaft in forward direction.
- a raw casting channel 4 is formed in the inner wall of the housing, to route the oil in the direction of the bearing.
- the orientation of the raw casting channel 4 in the inner wall of the casing is modified. It opens at half height of the bearing 6, not at the top.
- the oil can be scraped on the differential housing in the same manner as before, for example by a rib (not reproduced in these diagrams). Part of the oil thus captured is conveyed to the left bearing through the lower wall of the channel 4a, as shown in Figure 2B.
- the shape of the channel can be optimized, for example by adding a complementary oil guiding element 8, as in the nonlimiting example of FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B. , which is an enlargement of it.
- the guide element 8 advances from the bottom of the channel, towards the interior of the casing 7, in order to better channel the oil.
- This lubrication system is integrated in particular in a gear housing, or in a clutch housing and differential gearbox.
- a gearbox can thus integrate a lubrication system according to the invention, in each of its housings.
