Which gears within the differential permit that speed difference?

  • A.Helical gears
  • B.The sun gears, which mesh directly with one another and therefore rotate in opposite directions during cornering
  • C.Bevel planet gears rotating on a cross pin
  • D.The crown wheel and pinion, whose ratio permits the two half shafts to rotate at different speeds when required

Answer: C

Two or four planets carried on a cross pin mesh with the sun gears splined to the half shafts, and any speed difference makes the planets rotate on their pin. In a straight line they are carried round without turning. A symptom that appears under one condition and not another is what narrows the diagnosis quickly. The shared behaviour explains why these belong together and the differences explain why both exist. Most errors here come from carrying across a result from a neighbouring case where it does not hold.
