Abstract
A differential gearing comprises a carrier (1); output gears (3, 11); and differential gears (4, 5) in two sets meshing respectively with the output gears and directly or indirectly with one another. The differential gears are disposed asymmetrically about the carrier so that a resultant radial force acts on the output gears urging them into engagement with recesses in the carrier (1) or a support member (7) therein, so that the frictional inhibition of the differential action is increased.
