ABSTRACT:
To enable a reliable differential lock without setting an actuator to be large-sized, a differential apparatus has a differential casing rotated by driving force of an engine, output side helical side gears supported within this differential casing, helical pinion gears connecting the gears, storage holes for storing the gears slidably and rotatably, a locked member connected to the gear, a lock member integrally rotated with the differential casing, a clutch mechanism formed between the members and locking a differential rotation, an actuator for coupling and operating the clutch mechanism, and a cam mechanism for increasing coupling force of the clutch mechanism by receiving differential torque when the clutch mechanism is coupled.
