Latest Patents

Kazushige Nakane holds a patent for a differential apparatus. This invention includes a differential casing, a pair of helical side gears, and a pair of helical pinion gears. The helical pinion gears are strategically accommodated in bores formed in the differential casing. The long and short helical pinion gears feature respective first gear portions that mesh with the side gears and second gear portions that mesh with each other. Notably, each gear tooth of the long pinion gear is tapered, ensuring that the tip thickness gradually decreases from one axial end of the gear portion toward the other. This design allows for sufficient tooth bearing areas at the respective tooth faces of the pinion gears, even when the long pinion gear is inclined due to meshing reactive forces.
