What is Torsen?

The origin

Torsen name taken Torque-sensing Tractionmdash; mdash; feel traction torque, the core Torsen worm, a worm gear system, it can be seen a double worm, worm Torsen differential structure from a structural view, the positive they engage each other and configured to interlock unidirectionally transmits torque from the worm to the worm gear of the differential locking function is realized, this feature limits the slide. During normal driving in a curve, the role of the former, the rear differential is a conventional differential, a worm gear does not affect the output speed of the axle different, such as when the vehicle turn to the left and right wheel differential speed ratio, and left low speed, different speeds of the left and right can be closely match the synchronization worm gear. At this time, the worm and not locked, since the torque from the worm to the worm gear. When one side of the wheel slip, the worm components play a role, through a Torsen differential or hydraulic multi-plate clutch, very quickly and automatically adjusting power distribution.
