ABSTRACT:
A friction-based device for partial locking of a motor vehicle differential with at least one elastic friction segment between one or more sun gears of the differential and the crown gear driving the vehicle wheels, the at least one elastic segment contained under compression in a hole bored on the differential housing, the segment exerting radial pressure on the inside surface of the hole.
This arrangement is particularly suitable for partial locking of the motor differential(s) for heavy road vehicles.
