ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a differential gear assembly. The assembly comprises a case which is rotated by a driving force of a power source and has a pair of walls extending substantially radially and defining axial ends of the case. First and second side gears are coaxially arranged within the case and supported in such a manner that the first and the second side gears are individually rotatable with respect to the rotation axis of the case relative to the case, and they are adapted to be connected to first and second output shafts, respectively. At least one pair of first and second pinion gears are arranged in parallel to the rotation axis of the case, and the first pinion gear has first and second gearing portions, the second pinion gear having third and fourth gearing portions, the first gearing portion being engaged with the third gearing portion, the second gearing portion being engaged with the first side gear, and the fourth gearing portion being engaged with the second side gear. Formed on the case are at least one pair of a first opening for fittingly receiving the first pinion gear and a second opening for fittingly receiving the second pinion gear. Each of the openings is formed in either one of the walls in such a manner that an outer circumferential portion of the first pinion gear is surrounded by the first opening and an outer circumferential portion of the second pinion gear is surrounded by the second opening in which the outer circumferential portions of the first and second pinion gears penetrate the first and second openings, respectively.
