1. Auto Torque Baising Differential | |
|
Automatic torque biasing differential (ATB) by Quaife controls the power transmitted to both driving wheels. It has an automatic proportional operation, progressive curve but never locks unlike the LSD in the Sport 300. The idea is that it should eliminate harsh torque steer characteristics of other LSD's. It is a completely gear operated design, No plates, works in all traction conditions and is a direct fit to the UN1 - 026 Esprit gearbox.
Technical principle: Sets of floating helical gear pinions mesh to provide the normal speed differential action. In the event of one wheel slip, torque bias is generated by the axial and radial thrusts of the pinions in the pockets. Resultant friction force enables the driving road wheel and sun gear to transmit a greater proportion of the torque. This effect is progressive but at no stage does the differential lock solid. |
