Differentials for Forklifts

Forklift Differential - A mechanical tool capable of transmitting torque and rotation through three shafts is referred to as a differential. Every so often but not at all times the differential will utilize gears and would work in two ways: in cars, it provides two outputs and receives one input. The other way a differential operates is to combine two inputs so as to generate an output that is the average, difference or sum of the inputs. In wheeled vehicles, the differential allows each of the tires to rotate at various speeds while providing equal torque to all of them.

The differential is designed to drive a set of wheels with equivalent torque while allowing them to rotate at different speeds. While driving around corners, an automobile's wheels rotate at different speeds. Certain vehicles like for example karts operate without a differential and utilize an axle as an alternative. If these vehicles are turning corners, both driving wheels are forced to rotate at the same speed, usually on a common axle that is powered by a simple chain-drive apparatus. The inner wheel should travel a shorter distance compared to the outer wheel while cornering. Without a differential, the consequence is the outer wheel dragging and or the inner wheel spinning. This puts strain on drive train, resulting in unpredictable handling, difficult driving and damage to the tires and the roads.

The amount of traction considered necessary in order to move the car at any given moment is dependent on the load at that moment. How much drag or friction there is, the vehicle's momentum, the gradient of the road and how heavy the vehicle is are all contributing elements. One of the less desirable side effects of a traditional differential is that it could reduce traction under less than perfect situation.

The end result of torque being supplied to each and every wheel comes from the drive axles, transmission and engine applying force against the resistance of that grip on a wheel. Usually, the drive train will provide as much torque as needed unless the load is extremely high. The limiting element is normally the traction under each wheel. Traction can be interpreted as the amount of torque that could be produced between the road surface and the tire, before the wheel begins to slip. The car would be propelled in the intended direction if the torque used to the drive wheels does not exceed the threshold of traction. If the torque utilized to every wheel does exceed the traction limit then the wheels will spin incessantly.
