ABSTRACT:
In an epicyclic distributor gear-box for driving two vehicle axles of a motor vehicle, a main shaft concentric with one of two coaxial main shafts is connected to the sun wheel of an epicyclic gear-box. Each of the two other gear elements of the epicyclic gear-box are connected to one of the coaxial main shafts. A lock-up plate clutch connected to two of the gear elements is engaged by a spring and disengaged by an axial pressure piston. Each half-clutch has a plate carrier and one of the plate carriers has an abutment supporting all the plates. The abutment is both immovably fixed on the concentric main shaft by releasable fasteners and is provided with axial passage for a clutch disengagement assembly. The spring maintains the engaged end position and is located on the sun wheel side of the plate carrier having the abutment and the axial pressure piston is located on the other side.
In this way, the concentric main shaft and the lock-up plate clutch are designed as a unit which can be preassembled and is compact.
