ABSTRACT:
A torque transfer mechanism for transferring drive to a pair of tandem driving axles of a vehicle including a one-way driving device or roller clutch mounted in a housing, with an input shaft and concentric output shafts being mounted in said housing with the input shafts extending from one side of the one-way device and the concentric output shafts extending from the other side of the one-way device, each of said output shafts connected to drive one of said driving axles. The one-way device includes a drive race formed on the input shaft, the input shaft also being connected through the drive race to one of the output shafts, and the driven race being connected to the other output shaft with a plurality of wedging rollers mounted between the races. Torque is normally transferred to said one output shaft and the one-way device is responsive to relative rotation between the output shafts to provide drive to the other output shaft connected to the driven race when it is not rotating faster than the one output shaft.
