  • An axle gear may have any one of a number of different types of differential.
  • a differential typically has three major functions. The first function is to transmit engine power to the wheels. The second function is act as the final gear reduction in the vehicle, slowing the rotational speed from the transmission to the wheels. The third function is to transmit the power to the wheels while allowing them to rotate at different speeds.
  • a number of differentials are known and include an open differential, a clutch-type limited slip differential, a viscous coupling differential, a torque sensing differential (such as those sold under the trademark Torsen® by JTEKT Torsen North America Inc) and a locking differential. All of these differentials may be generically referred to as axle gears.
  • Axle gears typically require a lubricant.
  • the lubricant formulation is dependent on the type of axle gear, and the operating conditions of the axle gear.
  • an open differential axle gear is believed to require antiwear and/or extreme pressure additives.
  • a limited slip differential typically requires a friction modifier because in addition to an open differential (known from many axle fluids), a spring pack and a clutch pack are typically present.
  • the clutch pack may contain one or more reaction plates (often made from steel) and one or more friction plates.
  • the friction plates are known, and may be made from a number of materials including paper (or cellulose), carbon, graphite, steel and a composite.
  • the lubricating composition suitable for the limited slip differential may have a sulphur content in the range of 0.3 wt % to 5 wt %, or 0.5 wt % to 5 wt %, or 0.5 wt % to 3 wt % or 0.8 wt % to 2.5 wt %, or 1 wt % to 2 wt %.
  • the lubricating composition suitable for the limited slip differential may be a fully formulated fluid.
  • the lubricating composition suitable for the limited slip differential may be a top treat concentrate (that is, a concentrate suitable to be added to an existing lubricant formulation as a top treat).
  • the concentrate may be added at 0.2 wt % to 10 wt %, or 0.5 wt % to 7 wt % relative to the amount of lubricant in a limited slip differential.
  • hydrocarbyl substituent or “hydrocarbyl group” is used in its ordinary sense, which is well-known to those skilled in the art. Specifically, it refers to a group having a carbon atom directly attached to the remainder of the molecule and having predominantly hydrocarbon character.
  • hydrocarbyl groups include: hydrocarbon substituents, including aliphatic, alicyclic, and aromatic substituents; substituted hydrocarbon substituents, that is, substituents containing non-hydrocarbon groups which, in the context of this invention, do not alter the predominantly hydrocarbon nature of the substituent; and hetero substituents, that is, substituents which similarly have a predominantly hydrocarbon character but contain other than carbon in a ring or chain.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de lubrification d'un différentiel à glissement limité comprenant une étape consistant à apporter au niveau d'un différentiel à glissement limité une composition lubrifiante contenant (a) une huile lubrifiante et (b) un diester en C4-C30 d'un acide dicarboxylique. L'invention concerne, en outre, l'utilisation d'un diester en C4-C30 d'un acide dicarboxylique en tant qu'agent modificateur du frottement, généralement dans un différentiel à glissement limité.
