B. Turning a Corner
• Rotation of spiral bevel pinion (1) will be transmit-
ted to spiral bevel gear (2). When turning, the outer
wheel should rotate faster than the inner wheel.
Therefore, While differential pinion (4) rotated with
the differential case (3), one differential gear shaft
should be rotating on differential pinion faster than
the other.

5.2 OPERATION
A. Traveling Straight Ahead
• Rotation of spiral bevel pinion (1) will be transmit-
ted to spiral bevel gear (2) and if road resistance is
transmitted to both wheels equally, the differential
pinion (4) and differential side gear (5), (6) will be
rotated with differential case (3) in a body and dif-
ferential gear shaft (7). (8) Will run at the same
speed, transmitting equal rotation to both wheels.
