Patent attributes
A reversible torque vector multiplier for gear reduction or gear multiplication of vehicle driveline, machinery or any rotating structure, such as an automobile or offroad vehicle. Said embodiments comprise an input structure such as an axle or driveline, an output structure such as wheel studs or a driven driveshaft, with a pinion gear and an annular or ring gear. In preferred embodiments replacement of a standardized component such as a unitary bearing hub or a carrier bearing results in gearing down or gearing up the final output speed and corresponding torque. In some applications the orientation can be swapped resulting in switching gear reduction with multiplication, and vice versa. A pinion gear with automatic lubrication channels. Apparatus and method claims are provided.
