<p>Provided is a differential gear for a vehicle that is capable of appropriately preventing the possibility of an axle slipping off from a side gear, or the possibility of a snap ring coming off. A disc spring (40) is provided with a protruding section (40a), which is a collision buffer section that reduces a collision load (E) between a differential case (12) and a side gear (20l) in the direction of the axis of rotation (C1) of the side gear (20l). Thus, even if a large shocking torque is inputted to the side gear (20l) from a pinion gear (22), and the side gear (20l) collides with the differential case (12) via the disc spring (40) and a plate washer (36), the collision load (E) caused by the collision is reduced by the protruding section (40a) provided to the disc spring (40), thus reducing the inertia of an axle (24l) that moves with the side gear (20l), and appropriately preventing the possibility of the axle (24l) slipping off from the side gear (20l), or the possibility of a snap ring (34) coming off.</p> |
