ABSTRACT:
A driven axle assembly for vehicles has an axle housing with a main drive, wheel hub units fixed to both sides of the axle housing and being driven by a drive shaft with different rotational movements on both sides of the main drive, within each wheel hub unit, a planetary gearing and a multi-plate friction type wet brake both being coupled to the drive shaft as well as to a drive unit of the vehicle, wherein the multi-plate friction type wet brake is arranged within a ring gear support member, and around planetary gears of the planetary gearing a ring gear is connected to them.
The improvement achieved by this invention is that a driving assembly is coupled to the ring gear of the planetary gearing of each and every wheel hub unit arranged on the driven axle whereas a difference between the rotational speeds of the ring gear within the wheel hub units, respectively, are proportional to a difference between the rotational speeds of the wheel hub units arranged on the driven axle of the vehicle.
