Patent attributes
A driveline unit housing includes a body defining an interior, a central portion, and a plurality of openings each adapted to receive a shaft. A mounting body has a mounting surface defining one of the openings, the mounting surface includes a plurality of mounting holes and has a peripheral length greater than that of the central portion. Support walls extend between the central portion and mounting body, and extend axially relative to an axis of rotation of a shaft received through the opening defined by the mounting surface, and at least a majority of the support walls extend radially and a plane through and parallel to each such support wall intersects an axis of the mounting holes and the axis of rotation. Spaces defined between the support walls span a majority of a circumference of an imaginary circle that intersects each support wall.
