Abstract:
A final drive mounted on a vehicle is comprised of: a differential gear set; a clutch rotatable about a rotational axis and combined with the differential gear set; a cam mechanism comprising a cam plate fixed from rotation about the rotational axis and so disposed as to move along the rotational axis to exert a fastening force on the clutch and a cam gear rotatable about the rotational axis, the cam mechanism for converting rotation of the cam gear into a pressure force on the cam plate; a gear set so meshed with the cam gear to rotate the cam gear; a casing housing the differential gear set, the clutch, the cam mechanism and the gear set in a single chamber; and a motor so disposed outside and above the casing as to hide behind the casing from a road and combined with the gear set.
