Abstract: A differential for a vehicle. The differential includes a cage, which is rotatable about a first axis of rotation and has a drive interface, a first driven gear, mounted in the cage to be rotatable about the first axis of rotation, a second driven gear, mounted in the cage to be rotatable about the first axis of rotation, a compensating gear, which is mounted in the cage about a second axis of rotation extending perpendicularly to the first axis of rotation and meshes with the first and the second driven gear, a flywheel mass, coupled to the cage and locked against rotation with respect to the first axis of rotation and displaceable in a radial direction perpendicularly to the first axis of rotation, and a clutch, which, as a result of an outward movement of the flywheel mass in the radial direction, is movable into a locking state.

Abstract: An expansion screw for regulating teeth has two expansion-screw bodies, the spacing between which can be changed by means of a spindle, and has at least one guide pin which is aligned parallel to the spindle and engages in guide openings of the two expansion-screw bodies, the spindle having a first and a second threaded portion, each of which is connected to an expansion-screw body, and an actuating portion, with at least one point for application of a tool for rotating the spindle, and the expansion screw has a locking mechanism which interacts with the actuating portion in order to secure the spindle against unintended rotation. The locking mechanism has at least one locking element with a locking member which is disposed laterally alongside the actuating portion and subjects the actuating portion to an axial spring force when the spindle is rotated.

In order to develop the expansion screw such that it requires a smaller amount of installation space, it is proposed that the locking mechanism has at least one locking element with a locking member which is disposed laterally alongside the actuating portion and subjects the actuating portion to an axial spring force when the spindle is rotated.
