The present invention relates to axle and intermediate differential mechanisms applicable in vehicles. The inventive differential distributes the torque to the driven shafts automatically and in proportion to the loadings without mounting of any additional control means and actuating means. The proposed construction includes two hydraulic volumetric clutches having a common drive part, in which the driven parts with immovably connected driven shafts are placed. Each of the hydraulic clutches has its own loop of circulating channels, which are separated by means of a common gate unit, containing a cylindrical gate with two openings. Two guide channels connect the discharged sides of the circulating channels, the suction sides of which being connected to volumetric compensators. The gate blocks hydraulically both clutches when the loads on the driven shafts are equal, and releases the less loaded shaft in case of breaking the balance proportionally to the loading. |
