Abstract: Systems are provided for an axle housing for a vehicle. In one example, system includes a differential housing comprising a modular Salisbury style center section comprising tube mounts configured to receive tube assemblies via a press fit.

Abstract: A cradle assembly for housing and supporting a motor and a gearbox of an electric axle assembly. The cradle assembly has generally an “open air” design which provides a space for a motor and/or gearbox to be positioned within a pre-assembled cradle assembly and allows for easy access to the motor and gearbox for maintenance. The cradle assembly includes two end caps, a plurality of tube portions connecting the end caps and a plurality of motor mounts for supporting the motor and gearbox.

Abstract: An oil feed channel lubricating system including a first upstanding wall, a floor and a portion of an interior wall of a carrier. The channel has a first portion angled at a first angle and a second portion angled at a second angle. The first portion preferably has a shallower angle than the second portion. A gap is located between a top of the first upstanding wall and the interior wall of the carrier.

Abstract: A unitary and integrally formed ring gear shroud having a first end portion, an arc-shaped middle portion, a second end portion, a first side and a second side. The first end portion extends orthogonally from the arc-shaped middle portion. The second end portion extends orthogonally from the arc-shaped middle portion, opposite the first end portion. The first end portion and the second end portions each extend from the arc-shaped middle portion. The first and second sides each have an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner and outer surfaces of the first side define a first radiused opening. The inner and outer surfaces of the second side also define a second radiused opening, wherein the first opening has a larger radius than the second opening. The outer surfaces of the first side and the second side are non-symmetrical.
