, Description:FIELD
The present disclosure relates to the field of arrangements for facilitating flow of oil between the differential housing and the wet brake housing.
DEFINITION
As used in the present disclosure, the following terms are generally intended to have the meaning as set forth below, except to the extent that the context in which they are used indicate otherwise.
Shim: - The term “Shim” refers to a washer or thin strip typically perforated used for aligning parts and for reducing wear.
BACKGROUND
The background information herein below relates to the present disclosure but is not necessarily prior art.
Typically, the oil flows between differential housing & wet brake housing depending upon the oil level via an oil gallery provided with a bush therein. A conventional bush, which is used for oil circulation, has an O-ring provided at one end and threads configured at the other end thereof. The threaded end is fastened with the differential housing and the end having O-ring is mated with the wet brake housing. However, this arrangement has some limitations caused due to the threading. More specifically, the threading makes it difficult to maintain the concentricity between the differential housing and the wet brake housing during the flow of oil through the bush. Due to the variance in the concentricity, a gap is formed between the gallery and the bush, thus causing leakage of oil through the gap into the gallery & ultimately into the surrounding.
Therefore, there is a need of an arrangement for flow of oil that alleviates the aforementioned drawbacks.
OBJECTS
Some of the objects of the present disclosure, which at least one embodiment herein satisfies, are as follows:
It is an object of the present disclosure to ameliorate one or more problems of the prior art or to at least provide a useful alternative.
An object of the present disclosure is to provide gallery arrangement for flow of oil between differential housing and wet brake housing.
Another object of the present disclosure is to provide gallery arrangement for flow of oil between differential housing and wet brake housing that maintains concentricity of bush inserted between the differential housing and the wet brake housing.
Yet another object of the present disclosure is to provide gallery arrangement for flow of oil between differential housing and wet brake housing that prevents leakage of oil.

Figure 1 depicts a conventional bush 114’ having threads 6 at one end is fastened to the differential housing 2 and its other end having an O-ring 8 disposed thereon is mated with the wet brake housing 4 to allow the passage of oil therethrough. However, the threads are made with less accuracy and therefore cause the differential housing 2, the bush 114’, and the wet brake housing 4 to not being in same axis. Further, due to hydrostatic pressure of the oil there is possibility that the bush 114’ may displace axially. Also, there may be leakage of oil from the threaded end of the bush 114’.
The present disclosure therefore envisages a gallery arrangement for oil flow between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4. The gallery arrangement 100 (herein after referred to as “arrangement 100”) for flow of oil between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4 will now be described with reference to Figure 2 through Figure 10.

Referring to Figures 4 and 7, the outer walls of the first recess 102 define an operative first outer lip 105 and the outer walls of second recess 108 define a second outer lip 107. In an embodiment, the first outer lip 105 is spaced apart from the second outer lip 107. In an embodiment, at least one perforated shim plate 120 is configured to be located in the space between the first outer lip 105 and the second outer lip 107 to achieve adjustable coupling between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4. In an embodiment, a first set of pins 122A are defined on the first outer lip 105 and a second set of pins 122B are defined on the second outer lip 107 for securing the perforated shim plate 120.
In an embodiment, the first recess 102 is configured to be integral to the differential housing 2 and the second recess 108 is configured to be integral to the wet brake housing 4.

In an embodiment, the perforated shim plate 120 is configured to prevent lateral displacement of the bush 114 (please refer Figure 2 and Figure 10). In an embodiment, the axis of the bush 114 is parallel to the axis of the shim plate 120. In an embodiment, the axis of the bush 114 is concentric to the axis of the O-rings 116, 118.
In an embodiment, the range for axial tolerance for the bush 114 and the differential housing 2 is 1 mm to 2.2 mm. In an embodiment, the range for radial tolerance for the bush 114 and the differential housing 2 is 0.160 mm to 0.240 mm.
The present disclosure also envisages a method for providing the gallery arrangement 100 for flow of oil from the differential housing 2 to the wet brake housing 4. The method comprises the following steps:
• fitting both O-rings 116, 118 in the grooves of the bush 114;
• press fitting an operative front end I of the bush 114 in a first recess 102 of the differential housing 2;
• aligning the operative inner surfaces of the first recess 102 with an operative inner surfaces of the second recess 108 with the help of guiding pins 122A, 122B (Refer Figure 9); and
• press fitting the second recess 108 over an operative rear end II of the bush 114, thereby forming an oil flow channel between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4 (Refer Figure 2 and Figure 10).
In an embodiment, at least one shim plate 120 is secured around the bush 114 and in the space between the mating surfaces of the first recess 102 and the second recess 108 to achieve adjustable coupling between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4.
The arrangement 100 with the bush 114 having O-rings 116, 118 accommodated in the grooves 114D and 114E respectively, help in maintaining concentricity between the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4. The O-rings 116, 118 facilitate sealing of the discharge outlet 106 and the receiving inlet 112 and prevent leakage of the oil into the gallery as compared to the conventional bush 114’ which had threads and caused leakage of oil and that failed to maintain concentricity between the discharge outlet 106 and the receiving inlet 112.
The present disclosure envisages a vehicle having the gallery arrangement 100 provided in the differential housing 2 and the wet brake housing 4.
