Abstract
A center differential gear adapted for use in a power transmission device for full-time type four-wheel drive vehicles includes a diff-carrier coupled with a power transmitting front casing covering the front diff-carrier of a front-wheel differential gear and arranged coaxially with the diff-carrier, a side gear coupled to the front wheels, and another side gear coupled to a gear mount casing which transmits power to the rear wheels. The diff-carrier of the center differential gear is supported between the side gear on the side driving the front-wheel differential gear and the gear mount casing in cantilever fasion. The other side gear is spline-coupled directly to the gear mount casing without passing through the diff-carrier.
