Transfer for four-wheel drive vehicle
11512614 · 2022-11-29 · ·

A transfer for a four-wheel drive vehicle, the four-wheel drive vehicle configured to disconnect a propeller shaft from a power transmission path between an auxiliary drive wheels and a driving power source when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels by two-wheel drive, includes a second output rotating member and an oil pump. The second output rotating member is configured to output a driving power to the propeller shaft. The oil pump is configured to rotationally drive in conjunction with rotation of the second output rotating member via a first one-way clutch. The first one-way clutch is configured such that the oil pump supplies a lubrication oil to a wet clutch when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels forward by the four-wheel drive. The oil pump is configured to stop supplying the lubrication oil to the wet clutch when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels forward by the two-wheel drive.

PARKING MECHANISM, EMB SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE

A parking mechanism that includes a wheel disc, a wedge disc, and a drive assembly. An axis of the wheel disc and an axis of the wedge disc both are aligned with an axis of a motor shaft. A wedge groove with an opening facing the wheel disc is formed on a surface of the wedge disc facing the wheel disc, and a movable part in contact with the wheel disc is disposed in the wedge groove. In a direction from a bottom of the wedge groove to the wheel disc, a groove depth at a first end of the wedge groove is greater than a size of the movable part, and a groove depth at a second end of the wedge groove is less than the size of the movable part. The parking mechanism can provide stepless variable parking force.
