<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rear axle assembly for a front-wheel-drive vehicle having two electromagnetic clutches and a bevel geared differential unit. <P>SOLUTION: A rear wheel drive is provided control device for a front-wheel-drive vehicle having various operation modes. Basically, a rear axle assembly of a front-wheel-drive vehicle includes two electromagnetic clutches and a geared differential. A first electromagnetic clutch 70 provides torque to the geared differential which, in turn, provides drive torque to two axles. The differential geared unit includes a second electromagnetic clutch 190 operably disposed between a differential cage and output shafts (axles). Activation of the first electromagnetic clutch provides controlled application of torque to the rear differential unit and activation of the second electromagnetic clutch progressively inhibits differentiation of the differential geared unit. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
