High-torque shaft-locking unit for vehicle differential, includes interlocking connections between second locking component and casing

摘要

The second locking component (7) transmits locking torque to the casing. For this reason, it is secured against rotation in the casing. This is achieved by an interlocking connection (27, 28), made directly to the casing. The interlocking takes the form of projections (23, 24) from the second locking component (7), engaging recesses (25, 26) in the casing. Several such interlocking connections, especially three, are made at uniform intervals around the casing.
