<p>RING GEAR ASSEMBLY A ring gear mounted within a final drive or transmission housing and fixed against rotation with respect thereto. The ring gear is provided with a plurality of angularly spaced peripheral semi-circular recesses contiguous with opposing recesses in a peripheral portion of the housing. Drive pins are inserted within the circular apertures formed by the opposed semi-circular recesses. The pins and the ring gear are retained against axial movement by means of keeper plates fastened to a peripheral portion of the housing. The diameters of the angularly spaced peripheral semi-circular recesses are greater than those of the drive pins and in a perferred construction the centers of rotation of such enlarged semicircular recesses are displaced from the centers of the drive pins.</p> |
