  • Publication number: 20250010706
    Abstract: A differential gear arrangement for a vehicle. The differential gear arrangement includes a ring gear, a spindle gear, a spindle gear carrier, a side gear and an output shaft. The spindle gear is carried by the spindle gear carrier and rotatable relative to the spindle gear carrier. The spindle gear and the side gear are engaged with each other. The side gear is rotationally connected to the output shaft. The ring gear is arranged to drive the output shaft by rotating the spindle gear carrier when the ring gear and the spindle gear carrier are rotationally connected to each other. The ring gear and the spindle gear carrier are rotationally disconnectable from each other by axial displacement of the spindle gear carrier relative to the ring gear and the output shaft.

  • Patent number: 12163586
    Abstract: A transmission includes a shifting fork. The transmission has a first gear state and a second gear state being selectable by means of the shifting fork. The shifting fork is displaceable in an axial direction between a first predetermined position and a second predetermined position. The first gear state is provided when the shifting fork is placed in the first predetermined position and the second gear state is provided when the shifting fork is placed in the second predetermined position. The first predetermined position and the second predetermined position are arranged one after the other without any further predetermined position providing a further selectable gear state arranged between the first predetermined position and the second predetermined position. The first gear state provides a first gear of the transmission and the second gear state provides a second gear or a park lock state of the transmission.
