A conventional differential has been developed by the team of researchers which is non-locked differential and always supplies close to equal torque to each side. Through an automotive differential, if one wheel is held stationary then the counterpart wheel can take turn at twice with its normal speed.
A differential locking system has been introduced by the team of researchers which can be engaged as well as disengaged manually or automatically according to the conditions or a sensor based system which can be developed and will able to sense the difference in speed or stalling of one wheel to lock the differential by sliding a dog ring in order to get engaged in planetary gear spike shaft so that both the wheels could have same traction.
If the difference has been encountered between the speed of driven and rolling wheels, the differential can be controlled in order to lock. According to the researchers, when the car is taking the turn, the outer wheels will have to travel greater distance as compared to the inner wheel. If the car is containing the sold rear axle only as well as no other device has been contained by him, there will be tendency for the wheel to skid.
According to the researchers, if the wheel skidding is to be avoided, then for this purpose, some of the mechanism should be provided in the rear axle so that it could reduce the speed of the inner wheels at the time when vehicle is taking the turn. In addition to this, it should be done at the same time by keeping the speed of the entire wheel same when it is going straight ahead.
This technology of the researchers can functions by different ways such as it is very helpful in avoiding the skidding of rear wheels on the road while it is taking the turn as well as it reduces the speed of inner wheels and increases the speed of the outer wheels at the time of going to a curve. It has the ability to keep the speed equal of all eh wheels at the time of moving on the straight stretch.
According to the team of researchers, it can eliminate the single rigid rear axle as well as can provide coupling between the two rear axles. When one of the wheels goes in the pit condition at the time of loss of traction or friction between road and wheels, wheels shafts can stop turning.
