System for controlling distribution of torque to left and right wheels of a motor vehicle.

摘要

IN A SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING THE DISTRIBUTION OF TORQUE TO THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT WHEELS OF A MOTOR VEHICLE a differential (10) is provided for distributing torque (Te) to the left (8L) and the right (8R) wheels of the vehicle. A fluid operated multiple-disk clutch (16) is provided for restricting the operation of the differential (10). A speed ( DELTA W) difference between the left and the right wheels is calculated, and an input torque (Ti) to the differential (10) is determined. The fluid operated multiple-disk clutch (16) is operated in accordance with the speed difference ( DELTA W) and the input torque (Ti), in such a manner that the restricting force is proportional to the speed difference and the input torque.
