OVERVIEW
The Drive axle is composed of the axle housing, wheel
hub, half shaft, and brake. The axle housing is a cast
structure. The tire is connected to the wheel hub by
the wheel rim with stud bolts and nuts. The power is
transmitted to half shaft through the speed differential,
then to the front wheel, causing the wheel hub to
rotate. Each wheel hub is mounted on axle housing by
two tapered roller bearings, so the half shaft only
receives the torque transmitted by wheel hut. The oil
seal is fitted inside the wheel hub, to prevent entry of
water and dust, or an oil leak.
The 2-2.5t the wheel rim for a single tire is a partial
type, with the wide tire used for 3t and 3.5t. The 2-3.5t
forklift trucks may be equipped with a double tire. See
Figure 17 and Figure 18.
