Abstract:
A transfer device capable of performing switching between a two-wheel drive mode or a standby four-wheel drive mode and a full-time four-wheel drive mode is provided with: a center differential which comprises a differential mechanism including one side gear coupled to rear wheels and the other side gear capable of transmitting power to a spline piece coupled to front wheels, and a differential case coupled to an engine; a switching sleeve which is movable between a first position at which the differential case and a hub are engaged and a second position at which the hub and the spline piece are engaged; and a control clutch which engages and disengages a rear wheel output shaft coupled to the one side gear and the spline piece.
