Abstract
A differential gear assembly, in particular for a motor vehicle, includes a gearwheel, driven by a pinion and arranged on a differential case that is rotatably mounted in a gearbox case via rolling-contact bearings on both sides. Planet gears are supported in the differential case on at least one driving pin and meshing with axis-parallel output gears on output half-shafts. The gearwheel is attached to the differential case without form fit in circumferential direction and has recesses into which the at least one driving pin formfittingly projects in circumferential direction.
