  • Patent number: 5194053
    Abstract: A transfer torque control device for a rotational speed responsive type control coupling is provided for providing a desired variation of a transfer torque in response to a variation of a rotational speed differential. The control coupling has orifices for restricting fluid flow therethrough and for thereby producing a transfer torque between first and second axle shafts. The transfer torque control device controls the orifices in such a manner that the openings of the orifices are varied successively in response to variations of the rotational speed differential to obtain the desired torque transfer characteristic.
