    摘要: A snap-fit ball bearing cage, including: a first ring-half supported for rotation around an axis of rotation and including a plurality of first curved surfaces; a second ring-half including a plurality of second curved surfaces and a plurality of first protrusions non-rotatably connecting the second ring-half to the first ring-half, each first protrusion forming a portion of a radially outer perimeter of the second ring-half, or each first protrusion forming a portion of a radially inner perimeter of the second ring-half; and a plurality of balls. The plurality of first curved surfaces and the plurality of second curved surfaces define a plurality of openings; the plurality of balls is disposed in the plurality of openings. Each first curved surface, included in the plurality of first curved surfaces, is a mirror image of a second curved surface included in the plurality of second curved surfaces.

    摘要: A cycloidal differential includes a driven body, first and second cycloidal drives, and a coupling plate. The first cycloidal drive is disposed on a first side of the driven body and has a first input member rotationally fixed to the driven body and a first output member configured to connect with a first half shaft. The second cycloidal drive is disposed on a second side of the driven body and has a second input member rotationally fixed to the driven body and a second output member configured to connect with a second half shaft. The coupling plate is supported for rotation within the driven body and is connected to each of the first and second cycloidal drives.

    摘要: A compact planetary differential includes a drive input ring gear having external teeth and a planet gear carrier connected rotationally fixed to the drive input ring gear. First planet gears are located on a first axial side of the planet gear carrier, and second planet gears are located on a second axial side, with the first and second planet gears being arranged in intermeshing pairs, and the planet gear carrier including interface openings. Pin plates include aligned openings for first planet gears and the second planet gears. Pinion shafts extend through these aligned openings and pinion shaft openings in the planet gear carrier. A single one of the first or second planet gears is rotatably supported on each respective one of the pinion shafts. A first sun gear engages with the first planet gears, and a second sun gear engages with the second planet gears.

    摘要: A bearing cage assembly is disclosed herein that includes a first cage half formed as a plastic cage and a second cage half formed as a metal shell. The first cage half includes a first base rim and a first plurality of arms extending axially from the first base rim. The second cage half includes a second base rim and a second plurality of arms extending axially from the second base rim. The second plurality of arms are each formed by a first flange and a second flange. The first flange and the second flange are spaced apart from each other in a radial direction to define a receptacle dimensioned to receive a respective one of the first plurality of arms. Free ends of the first flange and the second flange are crimped over to retain the first cage half with the second cage half.
